I guess you could say "nothing". I am retired and enjoy it immensely. I play golf several days a week and don't worry that it is going to rain on the weekend.

I'm an Electronics Engineer working at a company that make high-tech radios for the military/government/law enforcement. If the bad guys are transmitting somewhere, the good guys are using our equipment to listen in and locate them (now if we could only find Osama Bin Laden).

I have been touring the world with bands as a drum tech for about the past 4 years and never got to do much golfing. Now that I am back rooted in SLC I'm in the contrustion game and try to get out at least once a week. Can't really log online when I am building a deck though


I'm a systems engineer from Nevada. There's plenty of good weather here for golfing but my favorite place so far is Myrtle Beach. Welcome fellow newbies!

Hi there.

I'm an IT manager for a company that touches 60% of the households in the US - or so our statistics say. The chances are also very good that you've never heard of us which I find cool and a little scary all at the same time. I've been in IT since IT was just a bunch of nerds with soldering irons and Heathkit parts. The most disturbing thing about all of that is the longer I am in, the less I realize I know.

Presently I manage a geographically diverse group of database administrators, Oracle being the current flavor of database preferred by our company. Our parent company however prefers DB2 so it's only a matter of time.

A previous position with the same company had me managing the system administrators so I'm as comfortable sipping wine as playing paintball. I'll leave it to the reader to decide which is which.

Nice to meet everyone here ... of course this is a post spawned by the Newbie User thread so I'm off to do more newbie things now.

Currently a full time criminal justice student at Clemson University whos looking forward to fighting crime someday. Im also a resident assistant in a dormitory on campus. Its not glamorous but it gives me some extra spending money so I can hit up the local courses in between classes.

In my freestyle:
Driver: 10.5* G5 with UST V2
F.W. wood: 16* retro raylor with Aldila HM-40 Tour Gold
Irons: i5 3-pw. Stiff cs lite shafts
Wedges: 8620 51*, 56*, and 60* Putter: classics 1 34""Life is tough. It's tougher if you're stupid." -John Wayne


I am a banker. Currently it is quite as the market have been disappointing. Been buying equipment to compensate for the depressing mood.

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
