This putter rolls puts off like butter. Very true, and easy to use, excellent sight lines on the putter. However, I absolutely found the grip to be a flaw. It stuck to everything, my clothes,...

Hello everyone,

My name is Al, I'm originally from Rhode Island but moved to Texas 6 years ago. I started playing golf around 1994 and played pretty much every weekend until about 1999, then took a long break. I just started back up again last year and now that my son is older (20), we have been playing together.

I normally shoot in the low 100's but have shot a 94 and 92 in the last month. I would like to get down into the 80's consistently.

I look forward to making new friends here and learning as much as possible.

Hi Al - love the avatar! If you are looking to move into the 80's consistently check out our 5 Simple Keys (named 5 Simple Keys as the instruction is based on only the 5 things all great golfers have in common) thread: http://thesandtrap.com/t/61376/5sk-video-thread -- if you have any questions at all let us know. Glad you found the site!

Welcome. I am a lot like you, in that I gave up golf for 10+ yrs and just started up about a year and a half ago. I usually shoot low 90's. You will get a lot of help from people on this site, enjoy.
