Howdy everyone on The Sand Trap. My name is Ron and I am new to this site. (actually I was on here for about 2 seconds a year ago but did not maintain my attendence!) I have a dear friend (subpar) who introduced me to this site a while back and now that I am back, I look forward to reading all of the interesting topics on this site. I am a Golf Instructor, (as I'm sure there are many on here) in the Los Angeles area. I hope to meet everyone and I look forward to interacting with my fellow golfnutz! I'm sure everyone on this site is as crazy about this game as I am.

I'm sure (I will try my best not too) I will make mistakes in posting and chatting so feel free to set me straight should I get out of line or do something that is not protocol.

Security Manager in Lower Manhattan, mostly access control. Can't view the TST from work. So it's either I'm off, or weekends when I get to view the site.

I work at Duke University as an "Accounting Specialist" in the Auxiliary Services department, which handles all of the Universities money that's not related to tuition, grants etc. Everything from parking, to concessions from sports events, to the dining units on campus. I'm currently using their employee tuition reimbursement program to get an accounting degree.

    • First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.
    • Day 118 - Spent some time working on the full swing. Need to film some swings for Evolvr tomorrow. 
    • playing with cleveland hybrid irons have friends that use hybrids anyone using hybrid irons or hybrids would appreciate fwwdback
    • I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory. 
    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
