I'm a 16-year-old golfer from Finland. I completed the green card course 4 years ago, but after that I didn't play that often until 2018. My handicap in the beginning of 2018 was around 40-50. It quickly dropped down to 26,6 in the end of 2018. I was practicing in a junior beginner group but I got invited to join the best junior golfers of our club (hcp was around 30). I practiced a lot during the winter and summer of 2019. Right now my handicap is 8,6. I did biathlon for 6 years before quitting it last year. I have played many sports (also too much e-sports). During the summer I played around 100 rounds of golf (consisting of 1/3 18 hole rounds and 2/3 9 hole rounds). My dream is to get on the European tour. My typical round is 78-80. Last year my average drive was 200 meters. This summer it was around 240-250 meters

Welcome to the forum. 

About 5 years ago I stayed in Finland for about a week. I was up near Seinajoki. It was during the time of year when the sun didn't set. I remember we played golf twice. We teed off at around 9PM both times. It was really cool. Although, I imagine it isn't quite as awesome in the winter. 

Anyway, I've been to Finland a few times and have always enjoyed it. 

Enjoy the forum. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
