Hows it going everyone. I am 24 yrs old and I started to play golf for the first time seriously about 9 months ago. Only experience I prior really had was when I was 14 and went to the range 4 times a week with my uncle for 2 straight summers. But my friends all started picking up the game so I thought why not.

Well anyways, I had pulled an all nighter and my friend called me out of the blue at 5am wanting to know if I wanted to play a round a 730am. Even though I was starting to get groggy and sleepy, I cant say no to golf, so I agreed. I ended up shooting a 95 which beat my old score of a 96. Felt pretty good after that. The very next week, I play the same course and wound up shooting a legit 85! A 10 stroke improvement. For the first time, I was hitting my irons and wedges perfectly. I landed on the green 8 of the first 9 holes when I was within 200 yards. I never felt so confident in my irons. I would just line up and say to myself I can do this easily, no prob. Then I would swing at it and just stick it. It was mind boggling. I had the opportunity to crack the coveted 70's ...but I tripled bogied my last 2 holes. That was after I decided to give into temptation and count my score to see where I was. I guess I jinxed myself

So I thought this was worthy of being my first thread I made on my golf game.

Thanks for reading.

    • Day 3: about 20 minutes of putting on the practice green. Focused on putts within 10 feet.
    • I don't have enough details to know what to tell you, man. If they were walking across, to play devil's advocate, maybe just wait another 10 seconds next time.
    • Day 11: Putts with a metronome and worked on some feels for greenside shots.
    • I realize the frame cuts off my tail but wanted to specifically see my hand path and club shaft and head travel from A5 to A7 with the grip and posture work I have been doing . This might be the shallowest I have managed to get the club head to enter into impact. I like the finish much more as well. 
    • Context:  I used to play golf very regularly (and when I'm playing regularly, I'm on TST regularly).  In summer 2022, I got my handicap down to a personal-best 11.9.  Unfortunately, in the three years since then, I've had far less time to play, and didn't really make the time to practice.  I've played a bit more the past few months, and I anticipate having a lot more time to practice starting in about two months, at which point I'm hoping to go back to my old practice habits (practicing daily, Evolvr lessons, spending more time on TST (come to think of it, I can do that important last part now)).   But it was thinking about how different my nines have been a few times in the past month or so that made me wonder if there was a thread here about it, and sure enough, there was.  In the past month or so, I've had a 38-46 and a 45-39.
