Hey

[tsbrewers]

Just thought I would introduce myself.

I am in my mid 30's and have been golfing probably 30 years of that. I was really passionate about it up through HS and was close to a scratch player back then. I have never had a lesson of any sort really, pretty much learned how to play from reading golf digest.

I started to play less and less after that and started to become frustrated about my scores and more or less quit for a few years. I just didn't enjoy it anymore, I would play maybe 2-3 times a year and still expect to shoot par, which of course didn't happen.

I think I am "past" that now and am starting to just enjoy being on a course no matter how I play. I haven't carried a handicap since HS, and will shoot anywhere from the mid 70's to the mid 80's. Depending on how much I am playing.

I am not a club collector, I have had probably 10 drivers, 2 total sets of irons and maybe 3 putters total in the last 30 years. I tend to find something I like and keep playing them. I am not a huge follower of the "buy a better game" mentality obviously. Of course winning the lottery could change all that.

EDIT: Here are a couple videos I just uploaded to the swingacademy.com

If anyone has any tips, by all means....

Welcome to the Sand Trap! Where in Minnesota do you usually play? (when its not snowing of course )

[tsbrewers]

I spent 23 years in the Marshall area so pretty much every course in SW MN. Moved from there to Mankato, played most courses in that area, now am in Belle Plaine so trying to play my way through the cities' courses. Haven't done many yet, Valley View, Highland, Keller, Chaska town course, Dakotah Ridge, Kilkarny SP? in Wisconsin, etc.
