Yikes... just getting back into the game after a few year hiatus. Torn rotator cuffs, broken ankles and other goodies from wakeboarding and motorcycle track days take a toll.

Anyways, played for the first time in a few years last month and forgot how much fun and challenging this game was. Still hitting my old Golfsmith Pro Forged and Ping ISI irons and a hand me down Taylor Made driver from dad. A little inconsistent but understandable. I was a single digit handicapper when I first injured my shoulder so I figured some really good shots and some really bad ones. Nothing like the good ole bogey train with a snowman thrown in. BTW that Handicap Index on the left is a SWAG, I really have no idea these days

Figured I'd get on here and get some insight but haven't gotten out of the golf equipment section yet.. So thanks

Seems like a cool informative site. Good stuff

You are not going to believe how good the balls and new equipment is today. Have fun.
(hint: if you are getting back in to play regularly, get new stuff -- it is worth it.)

Ya. I've been sniffing around some callaway x forged but I'm going to try and hold off and demo a bunch of stuff and see. I really like my Golfsmith Pro Forged

    • Day 126: 5/1/24 Putting and chipping practice. Slow motion swings with 8-iron.
    • #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.
