I been here for a few weeks but rarely posted.

I just started playing golf a few weeks ago. I am really bad at the moment but have been taking some lessons lately to improve.

I currently go to school at UVA. Also a HUGE Mets fan.

From CT but going to UVA?? As a UConn alum who lived in the Blue Ridge area (Front Royal) and now is in the NORTHERN Blue Ridge area (Martinsburg, WV - LOL) let me welcome you to the area!

Lots of good courses in your neck of the woods, although I haven't played many in Charlottesville...more to the south. If you can, check out the VSGA program. They sponsor one-day flighted tournaments (using handicaps) at a lot of the premier courses--its a great way to have some fun and to play nice courses for not too much $$.

    • I would agree with your assessment here. How are you at picking targets? Are you still aiming for the biggest part of the green or do you start flag hunting with a wedge in your hands? I don't really use this one. I would think that's a pretty good assumption, unless you have some weird combination of terrible from inside of 25 yards from the fairway and excellent from outside of 25 yards to offset that somehow, that it's primarily your short game from the rough that needs improvement. You can also go to the proximity by lie/distance breakdown in the overview tab to see more. For example, my SG stats look like this for the short game: But if you go to the proximity page, it paints a clearer picture. Don't forget you can hover over the bars on the graph to see how many you have taken from that lie. My short game inside of 25 yards isn't actually as bad as the SG stat would indicate, but it's completely skewed by my ineptitude out of greenside bunkers. Out of 101 shots overall inside of 25 yards, 22 of them were from the bunker. Many of them from the same bunker. Repeatedly. If you look at a glance at my 25-50 yard proximity stats, you might think it's the same issue, but it's not. Out of 41 shots overall, only 4 were from bunkers there, so that's not affecting the overall numbers too much. Same with the fairway stats, it looks like I do pretty well from the fairway from 25-50 yards out, but n=3. Not statistically significant.
    • Day 131: 5/6/24 Putting and chipping practice. Slow motion swings with a PW tonight.
    • Shot a 37 with two birdies. 2 highlights which came on the same hole.  Had a 297 yard drive which set me up for a nice approach on my  nemesis hole which I walked off with a birdie. Previous best for ages was a bogey on that hole.  2 more added to the birdie challenge.
