I've been surfing this site for a few days and finally decided to introduce myself. My name's Willy. I reside in the Willamette Valley in Oregon. I've been playing golf since The Golden Bear won the Masters in 1986. I'm a retired police officer in the area. I had previously worked my way into a scratch player. Got hurt pretty bad on the job, had surgery and subsequently hung up the clubs for about 5 years. In 2011 I retired and figured a bit of pain was a small price to pay for playing the sport I grew to love. Worked my way down to about a 4 handicap with lots of practicing and playing. I had another surgery this past December to replace my shoulder. Kinda odd that a 53 yr old needs this procedure, but it got pretty bad. Sparing the cry baby details, I've been back at it and slowly getting myself back into playing more and practicing. I was looking around for a golf site devoted to the game and by God, I found it! I look forward to participating and enjoying the site. Thanks for reading. Willy

    • I do not follow amateur or Korn Ferry tour but this story might get me to pay attention. At age 15 to be as accomplished as he is makes me think we may be seeing a future star.  A story of him breaking out may help reinvigorate golf viewership. Miles Russell has a hot start, cools off but finishes with a 68 in first Korn Ferry event Miles Russell, a 15-year-old Jacksonville Beach resident, made his Korn Ferry Tour debut on...  
    • Day 8: Indoor backswing work, mostly rehearsals of takeaway. Hit some balls wtih 6-iron working on adding flow, but not too Much which I tend to do, swaying too far away from target. 
    • Day 55: 4/18/2024 Got to the range again today. Planned to do my priority pieces and then hit targets with irons. But after my priority pieces I hit a few drives and tugged them all hard left. .... Uh... oh boy.  So, I spent about a half hour trying to hit targets at the range with my driver. 
    • Day 126 (18 Apr 24) - Trail arm only drill with the LW…focused on letting the club drop, engaging the bounce and letting the club pop the ball up….wrapped up by repeating drill with both hands on the club…
    • OPPs, I guess I have been doing the drill incorrectly, just ignore this.  But as they say, mistakes are learning opportunities. Let’s hope I can learn from mine.
