Hey guys and gals. 29 year old retired army veteran here. Full time student in HVAC program. Been golfing more and more the last three years and getting my first club membership this year. Hoping to golf consistently in the 90's this year as last year I golfed under 100 for the first time!

Been there, Murphysboro, often, once lived outside Makanda, in the countryside.  Great place for me then.  Loved it.

Suggest you look at this page http://thesandtrap.com/t/80051/the-word-golfing-is-a-sin and re-consider your verbs. Just kidding!  Won't be long now and snow and frost will be gone from the 'land of little egypt' and you can get out and smash the white pill.

That's a great topic! I really agree and I really can't wait to hit Jackson and hickory ridge! Just bought myself a Callaway RAZR X Black driver, so I need to hit the range a bunch lol.

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By jsgolfer ·

      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.

      A Novice Journey to Building a Bag. (Help Appreciated)

      By snapfade ·

      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.
