Howdy all.
I've recently taken the game back up after a 15 year layoff due to an injury. (severely broken right leg)
I know I missed some prime years (and scores), but I still enjoy the game as much as ever.

I retired from business in 2007, sold the house and moved to the sunny SW. My wife of 28 years was a cancer patient at the time and our only child was off to Iraq, so it was a hard time. Our son is doing great in his military career, recently married, and my wife has been cancer free for 3 years now. Life is good!

I'm totally starting over with my golf game. Due to my leg injury, my swing is limited from what it was (and I use to have a really good swing!) I recently purchased new irons , Callaway X18's, and seem to be hitting them well. (read straight) My distance is lacking though. I have not yet purchased woods, as I'm restricting myself to par 3's for the time being.

I'm sure I'll be asking advice as I learn more about my own game now, which I accept as being totally different than 15 years ago. Basically, I'm a 53 year old rookie. LOL!! Glad to here, thanks for listening.

    • Day 13: 12/23/2024 A lot more mirror work today. Using my same swing thought. Some slow motion, some full motion, some in between. Today I made sure I took every swing all the way to the finish. 
    • Day 234 (23 Dec 24) - Mystery Monday - what to do today….pretty straight up as I spent time with the 58 and a series of pitches (lower flighted all the way up to high fliers over the tulip tree).  Wrapped up the day going lower ball with the 9i and easy bump and runs.  Again as always the setup was key - case in point, got lazy and casually set up, feet straight and promptly hit a couple of nice heely shots hard right.  Knew it immediately, as next couple I went through the routine and flew the balls promptly too the target point.  Setup - setup - setup…
