Hi:

I have been playing about 5 years after starting late (late 40's). I am only recently playing about twice a month. So still very much the beginner.

Current goals are consistent iron play and breaking 90.

My game is starting to come around -- new clubs and GPS (technology is a wonderful thing), back to the gym for some conditioning, more time practicing, and almost figuring out what is a good golf swing.

I am a programmer/database admin with big pharma. Besides work, my spouse and I raise and show Scottish Terriers, do some photography ( www.troubleScottie.smugmug.com for some (lots ) images) and started to travel a bit.


As to playing in Seattle, actually we have it really quite nice here. It never really gets too cold or hot and the rain is generally pretty light - almost a mist. We loss a few fall and winter months (Nov to Feb) to leaves and soggy courses. We have late sunsets in the summer -- it is setting after 9 PM at the end of May. Lots of inexpensive ($30-60) courses which are mostly, well maintained. Most of the golfers here are fair weather players, so more time for the others.

Enjoying the site so far.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By GolfLug · Posted

      I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By iacas · Posted

      Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By iacas · Posted

      No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry
