Hello everyone,

Of course I want to say, great site. My name is Ryan and I'm 22. I'm still a golf newbie but I'm looking forward to playing a lot this year. My company paid for my membership to our local country club this year, and I've always wanted to learn the game better, so this is the year I begin my journey.

I just recently purchased a very slightly used set of Taylormade 200 steel irons on ebay, can't even tell they were ever used. We were fortunate enough to have a 50 degree day earlier in the week so I had the opportunity to try them out at our local driving range. So far, so good. I was hitting pretty consistently and straight. These clubs are very forgiving. I also just purchased a brand new Taylormade R580XD driver on ebay. It is in shipping... I should receive it shortly. I heard nothing but good things about this driver.. and the main thing was how forgiving it is.

I have spring fever like crazy now, what used to be baseball season... is now going to be golf season for me.

Thanks to everyone on the board for all of the great info. I'll be here awhile.

Welcome to the board, and enjoy the never-ending journey...

    • Day 171: mirror work while watching tv. Working on cleaning up the backswing stuff. 
    • Day 25: 1/4/2025 Mirror day. I did some good mirror work with a 7 iron. Once again focus here is on pushing the carpet away with my lead leg. Sort of like I'm sitting in a office chair and want to scoot across the room.  Later, I used the putting mirror on the putting mat. Rolling 8 footers down a straight line on the mat. 
    • Day 96 - 2025-01-04 Fighting it. Keeping my streak alive, but not by a lot. Got all of seven minutes or so in today. Maybe eight. 😛 Still backswing. Trip next week might be interesting, ha ha. Not gonna worry about it.
    • What does this have to do with the topic?
    • The Top flite Gamer, designed by Callaway, was once an excellent budget ball and won many gold awards from Golf Digest. The original Gamer was a 3 piece ball with a urethane cover. The 2024 version is a 2 piece ball with a cheaper ionomer cover. The top ball below clearly shows the cheaper 2024 2 piece Gamer and the bottom is the 2021 3 piece Gamer.   DSG acquired the brand from Callaway and has systematically destroyed it.
