Hi All,

I was reading on the sand trap for quite some time but I started posting since last week. I am 33 years old and from the Netherlands.

I have been playing golf for about five years but when you see me swing you wouldn't say it. :whistle:

At the moment I'm recovering from a shoulder injury so playing a round will be difficult for the next coming weeks/months. But there are a lot of area's I can work on in the meantime like my short game.

cheers,

Paul

Baie dankie. I went to South Africa two times. It is a very beautiful country and I think the people are very friendly. Where in South Africa do you live?

We have a group of dutchies that come to Orlando every year.  Last year we got together and had a couple of fun matches.  Here's a thread about it.

They're coming again this year, and we can't wait.  Great guys!

Great country, and great for golf too. I live in Johannesburg.

Yeah I wasn't really into golfing yet when I was there so that's a bit of a shame. I liked joburg. Especially the restaurant part of it.

    • You might want to try a can of Bar Keepers Friend. Yes, it is abrasive, so just wet a sponge and dab it on. It has oxalic acid (no bleach like "Comet" kitchen cleanser), and it works wonders on stainless steel and other metals. Try it on a small area first to see what happens.
    • Fair   My uneducated thought: the big miss is the penalty area. If you want to optimize score, missing into the bunker (likely 5) is better than missing right into the penalty (possible 6). With that, your strategy seems sound and if you hit a committed shot, you get a bunker 5% of the time, take your medicine and hopefully get a putt for par but accept bogey. You may find yourself in a penalty situation 2-3% of the time and accept the associated outcome. The vast majority of the time though you are giving yourself a good approach shot into the green. 
    • I walk 30 mins a day on my lunch break. It is not very intense (since i dont want to get sweaty in my work clothes), so just a touch above leisurely. 3 days a week I walk on the treadmill for 60 mins. I alternate the incline from 4 to 10 for a couple minutes, once every ten minutes. I lift my kettlebells nearly everyday. I have a couple complex routines. I find just 15 minutes and my heart rates is elevated
