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!

    • In the old days, pre-2020, "playing to your handicap" meant a net score about equal to the Course Rating.  that led to problems when people played against each other from different tees, people playing tees with a lower CR would generally shoot lower scores.  Course Handicaps were adjusted for each competition to make it even, usually lowering the course handicap for the "forward tee" players. So now if you "play to your handicap", the (68.4-72) term means your score will be even par, no matter which tees you play from.  No adjustment needed for people playing from different tees.  Look at your example, the guy shoots 82 every time, his Course Handicap of 10 gives him an even par net score every time.
