Hey everyone. Well, I've been looking all over the internet for a respectable golf forum. Hopefully this will be the one :)

Well to start off...my name is Phil. I'm asian...specifically South Korean. I've been playing golf on and off since I was about 12. I started getting serious about golf in my freshman year of highschool. I was about 14 then? And now I'm 16....so i've been playing golf for about 3 years...Ya...but im totally obsessed with golf now. People tend to look at me in a wierd way because I'm a young fella, and golf is "meant" to be played by old people. I say wtf ever, it's fun and addicting. Well...happy posting

Welcome Phil. Respectable? Hopefully. :P Yeah, this is a pretty cool place to talk golf. If you're obsessed with Golf you're in the right place because there are a lot of people here in the same boat, including myself, regardless of the fact that I've been working on my house and not my game for a couple of weeks. I do chip in the back yard several times a week which helps to stave off some of the rust.

Geoff Oglivy said that a good chipping stroke leads to a good full swing so I'm hoping that translates into something positive for me some day. I've been at the game for almost two years and haven't made the progress you have but I still believe there's hope.

Do you get to play much?

Well in the off season, I only play about once per two weeks.
When High School Golf season comes, I play my ass off.
We literally get like 3 free rounds a week.

However, when soccer season rolls in, I dont play golf.
This totally messes up my golf game.

    • Day 171: mirror work while watching tv. Working on cleaning up the backswing stuff. 
    • Day 25: 1/4/2025 Mirror day. I did some good mirror work with a 7 iron. Once again focus here is on pushing the carpet away with my lead leg. Sort of like I'm sitting in a office chair and want to scoot across the room.  Later, I used the putting mirror on the putting mat. Rolling 8 footers down a straight line on the mat. 
    • Day 96 - 2025-01-04 Fighting it. Keeping my streak alive, but not by a lot. Got all of seven minutes or so in today. Maybe eight. 😛 Still backswing. Trip next week might be interesting, ha ha. Not gonna worry about it.
    • What does this have to do with the topic?
    • The Top flite Gamer, designed by Callaway, was once an excellent budget ball and won many gold awards from Golf Digest. The original Gamer was a 3 piece ball with a urethane cover. The 2024 version is a 2 piece ball with a cheaper ionomer cover. The top ball below clearly shows the cheaper 2024 2 piece Gamer and the bottom is the 2021 3 piece Gamer.   DSG acquired the brand from Callaway and has systematically destroyed it.
