I'm an intern at Cisco Systems. This place moves as slow as Ben Crane does on the course...

Also, in the spirit of the thread, I am currently taking classes for Real Estate Appraisal and "interning" under my father.

I am a machinist. Been playing for over a year and am addicted. I live in the Dallas are where there are a ton of municipal courses and the twilight rates are pretty competitive. So I get to play alot on a machinist salary.

I'm a priest!

I went out for my first trip around the local 9-hole course with some of my parishioners. They played, I just took a few swings here and there to see what it's like. One of the guys felt uncomfortable because he couldn't use the kind of language he was used to using on the course. I told him it was ok.

I'm in the Marine Corps. I am out in November and writing a resume. I started playing golf about two years ago and I am addicted. If it wasn't for the internet I would know nothing about this beautiful, relaxing and sometimes frustrating game. I'm talking videos, books, talking with skilled golfers and keeping golf journals on each technique; I guess it's some kind of therapy for me. I play at least weekly, whether it's the range, a quick nine alone, or eighteen with a team. I broke 100 and am on my way to 90 (maybe when I master my irons). Well that's my first post.

I'm training to be an air traffic controller (no, not the guy with the ping-pong bats... think John Cusack and BB Thornton in Pushing Tin). According to recent media, we sleep a lot on the job, must be why we have the energy to play so much golf

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
