Greetings from the Newbie from Kentucky

Hi All. 

I wanted to let everyone know that I just signed up and that I enjoy golf very much. I'm located around the Louisville area, and I am looking for a local golf course to join. I'm hoping that I can find some advice from people who are more experienced than myself. Please respond and let's get to know one another.

I'll close by say, it's better to be at the golf course than at work.  Let's go!

Dear Highscoreinky,

Greetings. I would say at this point I'm just looking for somewhere to play golf for me and my two older boys & we're not necessarily interested in alot of fluff (don't have the $$).  My boys tell me that they want to play golf, but they have a hard time listening when I try and teach them - that will probably be my next thread! LOL. What can you share with me?  Thanks.

Thank you very much!  It's great to be here, I'm already feeling like I'm getting to know some people.  Have you been playing much this year?

Hey Dartguy,

I'm like you . . .  as I have heard that some local clubs are trying to gather bigger attendence, but it's hard. I have played Sleepy Hollow and Nevel Meade, both worth the money.  I have a local course down the road, but they are asking around $1000 per year for BASIC membership and cart.  Not sure if I want that or just play here and there as I feel like it.   Your thoughts?

I play so little, that I usually go to Nevel Meade.  If you haven't played there, treat yourself!  And it is only around 30-50 bucks, depending on time and day.

Hi BigAl5150 - Glad to meet you.  Would you happen to be a Van Halen fan?  (The 5150 reminded of them) - sorry for showing my age, but how is the golf course where you're at?

Regards,

TangoDiesel
