Hello, everyone! My name is Wes.

My uncle is a PGA teaching pro and owner of a golf course. I've been allowed to golf free all my life, but have never taken advantage of it until now (I'm 21).

I have no idea what my handicap is, but I recently shot in the 130s... on a par 68, 4500-ish yard course... but hey. It's always more fun when you have 50 shots to knock off instead of spending a year to knock off one or two, right?

I can't wait. :D

Hey Wes,

How are you doing,? I am right out of Herriman, Utah. I am also 21 years old and work in Sandy.  That's so awesome that your uncle is a PGA pro, very jealous of the free golf. haha. .  I am actually just getting into golf heavily this year too and I am VERY excited.  I usually just play by myself at Local courses around here, like Glenmoor and Riverbend, and Muligans.  What course do you usually play?

Oh man, Sandy Ut. I learned to golf at Willow Creek CC back in the early and mid 60's. After watching the Nation Wide tour on tv there last year it didn't look much like the course I remember.

The munies here in Portland Or are good and reasonablly priced, but the munies on the Wasatch front are better and lower priced.

Heck, I could almost be envious.

    • Both @DaveP043 and I play in our interclub matches every year, and have been team Captains as well.  There are always a few courses, mine is one, that win a lot of matches (we've won twice in the last 7 years), and we've been labeled as sandbaggers.  However, I really think that our course was rated too low (our greens just never seemed to get factored in enough), and thus our Handicaps were always a stroke or maybe 2 above, what they would've been if the course was rated higher.  And then when we went and played other courses, their slope and rating were much higher than ours, and sometimes I would get a 2 or 3 stroke bump on top of that.  It was definitely an advantage.  However, this past year, our course was rated again and the slope has gone up, so we'll see if we continue to have the same benefit.  Season starts this Sunday for us.

    • I would not do anything until I met with an instructor and got your swing looked at. There are some obvious better club options out there though. Spend 50 bucks on a lesson, practice and start piecing together a bag that works for you. Enjoy the journey.
