I'm a software/web consultant. I like looking through the server logs mid-day to see who's browsing the main site (we don't keep statistics on forum usage). It's always a bunch of people using thei

I am a police officer in a city south of Boston, 6 years so far. I work the midnight shift to give myself more time for golfing, although it doesn’t always work out as planned haha.

I'm a lead aircraft mechanic for a major US airline.  I work in what's called "line maintenance,"  When you have a pilot say that the mechanics are working on the plane at the gate, that's my guys out there bending the wrenches.  As I lead, I handle administrative functions such as schedules, payroll, and training, along with ordering parts, being a point of contact for pilots, and other divisions within the airline.  Sometimes, they let me out to work on airplanes too.

I’m responsible for cyber security at a video game company.

Sounds interesting & hard given the constant hacking attempts.

the thing that amazes me is how many steps I need to go through to  access the corporate system I have access to yet hackers can defeat safeguards of major companies & governments that should have top notch security,

I think it's more making it a 1 in 1 million type of event versus a 1 in 100 type of event.

So I’m new here and I’m a LTL truck driver. I’ve been playing since I was 4 and my dad (professional) has taught me since then. I’m not scratch and probably never will be since I have 4 kids, 2 grandkids and 5… yes 5 nieces and nephews. Time doesn’t allow me to play as much as I need to to be better and I’m ok with it. I hope to meet a lot of you and if you’re in arky, holler at me.

I worked in finance for 20 years in Switzerland, now I run a luxury tour operator in Colombia and I actually offer custom-made golf trips throughout the country. I've always been close to golf (my dad and some close friends play) but I just started to learn. This week I played my first 9-hole course and I'm excited to get better!

Welcome! 

You're WAY too young!  You should have to wait until you can only hit your driver 280.

This reminds me, I'm not a retired geotechnical engineer.  My new career as volunteer golf rules official typically pays me a ham sandwich and a soft drink, but its more fun.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 159 1-19 Flow drill while attempting to add arch in wrist on downswing. Not where it needs to be but felt good working on swing flow.

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today.  Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball.  Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices.  Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings.  Good restart to the daily drills.

      That depends what you do within those two.  Are they your only options?   Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment.  It's linked on the sidebar;  I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon.   Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness.

      Day 19, 1/19.  Finished work in time to spend 25 minutes hitting balls (hit 15) indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Usual focus.

      Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
