Former Lurker

[dcs2]

Hello,

I have been a lurker on TST for over two years. About a year ago I joined as a member and I have now decided I would like to engage in the community more. I am a college student living alone for the first time this summer. I have played golf nearly everyday the last two summers with my buddies in a very casual fashion, and thus have not had a real focus on improvement in quite sometime. I am looking to take advantage of all the alone time this summer to work on my game.

I started playing 5 years ago and improved at a decent rate for the first three years and then stalled quite a bit because I stopped practicing regularly outside of just playing casual rounds with my friends. When I get the chance, I will be filming my swing and posting in the member swings forum. I plan on using that thread to track my progress throughout the summer. My goal is to establish an official handicap at a club (I have previously been calculating it on my computer just for fun) and get it below 6 by the end of the summer. In order to do this, I need to focus on my ball striking to hit more greens in regulation.

I look forward to interacting with everyone on the site and I am excited to commit the summer to improving my golf game.
