Hello there everyone, lefty here from Miami fl, 28 years old and just wish I would have started earlier. I've had interest in the game for about 5 years now off and on but was always held back by not knowing another lefty WITH clubs that played. Girlfriend bought me a complete set of starter clubs for christmas and I've played two 18 rounds already with one lesson before my second session that Greatly Improved my contact and slicing issue. I'm very much hooked and look forward to learning and playing much more. I'm an analytical person so I love to study and research the things I find interesting and strive to get better.

Look forward to learning many things here,

Jose

Welcome Jose! Never too late to start, I've only been playing for 5 years now myself, and like you wish I had started a lot sooner! Keep us updated on your progress, and don't hesitate to jump right into any threads on here that interest you. Most people are helpful, a few are bullies, but overall a good board.

Glad to have you!

Get out while you can!!! At this point the disease may be curable. It's the most painfully frustrating game known to mankind. But once you get in too deep you start to become a sadist and actually enjoy the sweet agony of the game.

Welcome to the forum, Jose! I just got started as well and like you, I wish I had the opportunity to start when I was younger.

I certainly envy you because you are 5 years younger and you live in a state where you can go out this time of the year and play golf. Me I am stuck at hitting balls in a dome this time of the year.

Good luck!

    • I honestly think they were saying feet but it was in yards. The apex height was horrible, yeah. The rest was, from what I saw, pretty good. I agree it should be up on almost any shot they hit into the screen. Heck, I'd love to see it on the short shots around the green, but they don't have launch monitors over there, so… oh well. Go figure they're Full Swing LMs. It's funny they have like twelve of them going. It's not a good LM, but… Tiger's involved, so…
    • Some of the tee shot data they showed was wildly incorrect too, specifically apex height There were multiple drives that they claimed had apex heights of like 35 feet yet they still carried 300yds. I wonder if that was the apex height when it reached the screen, not the calculated apex height.  I do agree that more data and even being able to hear/see which clubs the players select would be nice. They could easily do it by having someone looking in the bag and pressing a button for whichever club is missing from the player's bag as they're walking up to hit.
    • I was hoping to see the data on all the shots. Not just carry and total distance, but all of the stuff you see on a simulator. It should be on the TV screen like you see relevant data for a football game. A couple of the approach shots they didn't even state the distance to the pin. I think that would probably be something they add as time goes on as they get feedback. I was surprised the camera didn't zoom in on wives and children, unless I missed it. I didn't watch the last 3 holes. I guess they weren't going for a family vibe. I will watch again, but with less anticipation. It was a Tuesday night and the weather sucks.
    • I wouldn't mind getting a Jupiter hat since I live down here, plus it's Tiger's team. I enjoyed how much faster it was, as well as the grass tees. I'm looking forward to Tiger's first match next week. Shame, it looks like the entire season's sold out. I live right down the road from it. Oh well. 
    • I'm wearing a Ballfrogs hat in my photo with Lou from the other day (and I wore it again today): This was the WORST the production and live show are going to be, and they got a lot of things right with only room to grow. I think it'll only get better (not wildly so, but incrementally). And it didn't help that it was a blowout, and yet… it was still pretty interesting. Singles was weirdly a little bit of a drag. I almost wonder if that's not a mid-season change.
