Hello all

[altramags]

Hello everyone,

Pretty much new to golf, started few years ago did no research and purchased the wrong type of clubs. After fighting the weak graphite shafts on my irons and the learning curve itself I gave up.

Sold those clubs and getting back into this spring. Been searching for winter deals to get my set built up. So far that has worked out great.

Leasons will be starting in another week or so and I have more time now in my life to be dedicated to the sport.

I'm 35yrs old, married to a awesome girl who is very supportive of my hobbies :)

Glad to have found this place and look forward to hearing what you all have to say.

what courses do you play?

So far I have hit Geneva Farm up in Harford County. Don't have much experience like I said really new. Hopefully the lessons pay off and get me going in the right direction this year. I play with a buddy of mine (got me into golf) and plan on hitting quite a few courses this year. Shawn Where are you in Baltimore?

[JT SCRATCH]

I live in Towson area. I am a member at TGCC-Eagles Nest, but have played Geneva a few times. its a nice track up there. My sister is actually getting married at Geneva Farms this summer.
good luck with your game, but be warned, golf is an addiction!

Grats to your sister :)

I know man, after a few games I have been blown away. Stopping up to Golf Galaxy after work today to get my buddies irons re-gripped for a surprise B-day gift. He is on Vacation in Colorado. Be right up the road from ya.

I hope several people read this about how the wrong clubs at least played a part in your giving up the game. I think a lot of people do this. Getting properly fit and getting lessons are very important for new golfers and both are something few new golfers do. I'm glad you took the initiative to get lessons. I hope you also make good purchases on clubs (hopefully you either got fit or will get fit).

Good luck with lessons and getting back into the game.

Thank you for that, I think I made some good choices with the new clubs I have now. Once the lessons kick in I will change out anything that me need to be changed if at all. This game is too much fun to give up. Shawn
