Hey everybody. Just wanted to introduce myself.

Name is Cesar. I'm 32, started playing when I was 10. Used to play competitively when I was a junior,High School, and a little bit in college.

Lowest index I've ever had was +1.

For the last 12 years though, I've played maybe a handful of rounds plus 1 or 2 scrambles a year. Just got burnt out and also got discouraged by the serious loss of accuracy on my driver. Seems the older I got and the more club head speed I generated, the more magnified my swing flaws became. What used to be drives in the 1st cut of rough, were now in deep doodoo (if not O.B.)

Couldn't fix it for the life of me so I just decided to pretty much hang them up. The few times I did go out it was with some friends just screwing around having a few beers.

Then I saw Tiger win at Torrey Pines this year and just like that, I got the bug again...big time! Talk about inspirational play!

Now I'm back at it. With 15 month old twin boys, I can't get out there everyday, but I'm definitely fitting golf in whenever the opportunity presents itself.

I've ditched the old swing and am starting from scratch. Been doing a lot of studying of swings going over the basic fundamentals. Used to swing a lot with my arms, now trying to focus more on turn and lower body, keeping my hands/arms more quiet and simple.

Over the past 3 months, I've had some good days and some really bad ones. My scores are ranging anywhere from -2 to +12, usually right around +4-/+6 on my local track which rates out at 74.5/135.

My goal is to get my swing back down this year, hit the gym hard in the winter to get in better shape, and start playing some amateur tourneys in 2009. See where this game can take me if I take it seriously again.

I look forward to learning from others and sharing my insights into this crazy game.

Take care
