Hey guys,

Some of you might remember me. I posted alot last summer when I first got infected with the golf bug, and began golfing everyday. Then I went back to school, and although I originally planned to keep regularly golfing, I soon became overburdened with school, and was unable to golf regularly . I also decided on career plans (Law school), and am currently studying for the LSAT. So with that on my plate too, along with other extracurriculars hasn't left me with a lot of time to hit the driving range, let alone hit the course.

But finally, after months of not even picking up a club, I dusted off the rust and played my first couple of rounds of the season! Surprisingly, I actually hit the ball very solidly both rounds, although my short game was extremely rusty. Felt great to get back out there, and actually hit some shots that felt like butter.

I still have a little over a month until I take the LSAT and will be able to golf everyday, but hopefully I will be able to get out there once a week or so until then. Can't wait!

My time off has actually allowed me to think about the mechanics of the golf swing alot, and helped me figure out A LOT! All the material I read and tournaments I saw finally got a chance to sink in, and i'm still reading the occasional monthly golf magazine. My out to in swing is completely gone, and I now know what it is to swing from the inside, although it needs much perfecting. Funny what a lot of time off can do.

Haha thanks. I'm glad I can at least contribute something to the community ;)

Thanks man, I definitely need to be reminded of this. Been putting in a lot of work, couldn't play this week unfortunately, which was a bummer.

Still, can't wait until i'm free. 36 days to go!
