To The Fore Golf – Full Review
To The Fore Golf is a golf tipster from the Tipsters Empire stable and has been tipping since June last year, so is relatively new on the block.
The tipster says their strategy “is fairly simple but still undertakes a lot of reading up and evaluating the factors of player form, course form, any weather issues, along with then searching for the value out there.”
Coming into our trial the results looked very positive, with 137 points profit made at a return on investment of over 70%.
It is more selective than most golf services, with just two to three bets per week on average. Tips come in both the PGA Tour and European Tours.
We ran a ten month trial which gave us a sample size of 109 bets.
At the end of our review they finished with a profit of 6 points, which came with a strike rate of 24% and a return on investment (ROI) of 4%.
They tend to go for selections at the top end of the market, which is a little different to most golf services we have encountered who tend to pick out selections at odds up to 200/1 or more.
That means the winners during our trial were mainly at single figure odds.
Whilst some may like the prospect of landing a winner at huge odds, the advantage of this approach is that it keeps the bank ticking along and you would be less likely to suffer from one of the very extensive losing streaks golf services can suffer from.
In any event, the bottom line is that with just a small profit of 6 points made the only fair verdict here is a NEUTRAL rating.
For the time being it is one to keep an eye on and to see if they can kick on and produce the kind of results reported prior to our trial.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The selections are sent out by e-mail, usually on Monday or Tuesday. Either way there is plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 2-3 bets per week on average the workload is very low with this service, making it very easy to follow.
Availability of prices: We didn’t notice any discernible impact on prices after tips were sent out.
Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was solid at 24% (including placed selections) so there was a reasonably steady rate of returns throughout the trial.
Advised Betting Bank: A 100 point bank is recommended for following the service which seems reasonable to us and was more than enough to cope with the ups and downs during our trial.
Subscription costs: The current subscription costs at the time of writing are £9.99 for an initial 40 day trial, followed by £30 per month, £80 per quarter, £140 for 6 months or £250 per year.
OVERALL VERDICT: NEUTRAL
After a ten month trial, golf tipster To The Fore Golf finished with a small profit of 6 points.
It’s a NEUTRAL rating for this service then and one to keep an eye on for the time being.

To The Fore Golf – Results Update
17th October 2023
There’s been a small drop for golf tipster To The Fore Golf lately, with a loss of 10 points made since our last update.
That means they are now 8 points up for our trial overall.
You can view full results here.
They had a couple of nice winners on the Ryder Cup with Rory McIlroy to be top European points scorer at 9/2 and Bob McIntyre to be top European rookie at 7/2, but those wins did not quite offset the losing tournament bets over the month.
Hopefully they can get things moving back in the right direction over the next couple of months as the golf season draws to a close.

They narrowly missed out on some wins lately with Bjork finishing 2nd at the European Masters in Switzerland and both Lowry and Fox finishing in a tie for third at the Irish Open last week. Fox in particular had a great chance to win but just couldn’t quite get it done down the stretch.
Although the majors are done for the year, there is still plenty of golf left for the season with the flagship event on the DP World Tour – the BMW PGA Championship – being held this week and of course the Ryder Cup in just a couple of weeks.

This is one of the more selective golf services we have come across, with just 8 bets over the last month – so about 2 per week.
Not to say there is anything wrong with that approach – they have done well using it and in fact it makes it a very simple service to follow.
Just something to note when comparing to other golf tipsters.

To The Fore Golf – Results Update
31st May 2023
It’s been a good start to our trial of golf tipster To The Fore Golf, with a profit of 27 points made for our trial to date.
You can view full results here.
Interesting to note that most of the winners so far have been at shorter prices than other golf services we have reviewed – for example Jon Rahm at 9/1 to win the Masters, Scottie Scheffler to win the Phoenix Open at 12/1 etc.
The approach is clearly working well so far though and it also means a higher strike rate than a tipster that is finding winners at 50/1, 100/1 and so on, which is a bonus.
Hopefully they can keep things going as we enter crunch time of the season with the US Open, British Open and Ryder Cup coming up over the next few months.

To The Fore Golf – New Review
6th March 2023
We are starting a new review today of a service called To The Fore Golf.
This is a golf tipster from the Tipsters Empire stable and has been tipping since June last year, so is relatively new on the block.
The tipster says their strategy “is fairly simple but still undertakes a lot of reading up and evaluating the factors of player form, course form, any weather issues, along with then searching for the value out there.”
Their first winner on the golf came in the form of John Daly to win the USPGA Championship at 66/1 back in 1991. That’s quite some time ago now (and you have to be of a certain vintage to remember it!) but shows the tipster has built up decades of experience in golf betting.
The results to date look very promising, with 137 points profit made so far. What really stands out though is the return on investment, which sits at an astonishing 74%.
That is one of the highest ROIs we have ever seen and to be honest would be almost impossible to retain in the long run.
However, if profits can continue at somewhere close to the levels seen so far it would be a very worthwhile service to follow indeed.
Interestingly, the strike rate is also quite high for a golf service at 32%, which is perhaps a reflection that they tip at slightly lower odds than most golf services.
Having a higher strike rate is certainly welcome though and means the losing runs should be shorter.
Another slight difference with most other golf services we have reviewed is that the bet volume tends to be lower, at 1-2 tips per event normally compared to 5-6 as usually seen with golf tipsters.
Anyway, just to say that we started receiving tips for this service on 10th January so will record results from then. There have already been three winners, with Scottie Scheffler and Jon Rahm (twice), as well as a few placed finishes so things have got off to a good start.
As ever we will record results here as we go along so you can see how the service is getting on.
In the meantime you can check out To The Fore Golf for yourself here.
