Hi all,

Wanted to introduce myself. . .my name is Mike and I live in College Park, Md. and work as a Commercial Real Estate Broker in Washington, D.C. I have played golf for years but only last year decided to get serious about it. Just got new clubs and am ready to get better! I look forward to talking with many of you and learning some things!

Best, Mike

Hey Matt,

Go Terps! Don't think they have a chance at the NCAA's. . .oh well, then I don't have to stay in and watch T.V.!! I can go out and play golf!!

Can you tell me how to add the clubs in my bag feature at the end of our posts?

Thanks, Mike

Welcome Mike.

I'm here in Severn. I think we're in the same boat. I've been playing for years, but decided to take it seriously within the last two. I'm not really familiar with any of the courses in Maryland, so do you have any suggestions for some inexpensive courses? I play Bay Hill in Severna Park. A pretty good course for the price. If you join their email alerts, they have plenty of deals.

Take care-

Hey Bruce,

I play U of M alot which is a nice course. . .however they are going to close it for about 9 months in July for a re-do! A real short 9 hole course, but one that is real cheap
($14.00) is Paint Branch which is adjacent to the U of M course. I also play Falls Road alot with the guys I work with and Enterprise along Greenbelt Rd. as you head to Bowie is a great course. I just have not played that one in a while!

I'm chomping on the bit to get out. . .played last Thursday at Falls Rd. and did surprisingly well with my new clubs. Perhaps we'll meet up one day this summer!

Best, Mike

Not sure exactly how close you guys are to Harford, but The Wetlands in Aberdeen and Geneva Farms are the best courses i've played. I usually play at a Par 62 course called Gunpowder Falls regularly. Great course for short game, longest hole is 330 from the whites and its #18. Best score theres about an 85.

geneva farms and the wetlands are both really nice courses, and gunpowder is probally in the best shape ever, i shot a 71 down there last week. also look for rocky point and diamond ridge. both really nice county courses
