Howdy everyone

My name is Andrew. After 26 years of failure, my father finally got me on the golf course and I feel like I've been missing out! It's a lot of fun and I enjoy learning and playing. I'm hoping to pick up a lot of tips and use the forum to expand my knowledge and have some fun!

Haha... Yea, I was raised a huge Hawkeye fan by my parents, but they ultimately wouldn't let me go so I could keep my head in the books and not in the toilet :P Ames isn't too bad though. It's small, but you can have some fun there. I'm a Cyclone fan now, too (except when they're playing Iowa); so it gives me more games to watch and another team to root for

Yeah same situation here. College of Engineering is great. I've always been for them when they aren't playing Iowa. But, still a diehard Hawkeye fan.

^Sorry late response. I mostly have been playing grandview and jester but also the legacy and woodland. I'd like to get out and play waveland soon.

Got out on GV once a few weeks back, wasn't too bad. I heard wave was in sorry shape so far, but havent been myself. Ask Seven Iron, she should know.

I've hit Deer Run about once a week and Rolling Hills a few times.

    • #4 - 1st hole at Kingsbarns I rolled in a 15 footer for birdie. Showed my caddie an old guy could still play a bit. #3 - 18th hole at Basin Harbor Club, Vergennes, VT. I had played matches against my nephew over the years. He had never beaten me although through the years he had become a long hitting teenage golfer. I was 1 up but bunkered near the 18th green. My nephew had a long putt for birdie. I splashed out of the bunker to 4 feet. He rolled his first putt close and I gave him the par. Sadly for him, I rolled mine in and won our last match. He went off to college and then Europe for a Ph. D. It was our last match. Family champion forever. #2 - First playoff hole in the City of Livonia, MI “65 & Over” division. I rolled in an 8 footer that broke about 4-5 inches. #10 Whispering Willows GC. #1  18th hole at TPC Prestancia, Sarasota, FL. A 4 foot slicing putt for par to beat the prior year’s Member/Guest winners and win the Member/Guest with my father at his club. I was having heart palpitations as I played the final hole solo when my father put two in the water. There was never a better golf sight for me when that ball dove into the hole.
    • Finally, wedges getting somewhere. This one a punch gap from 87 yards to about 12 feet. Contact and ball flight absolute restaurant quality. It's nice when grass comes back.
    • Tiger on the Today show today. At 3:25 he says he's working on keeping his arms in more and rotating his hips better. Nice. 
    • Day 11- Slow,  short swings with short practice club.
