Hello everyone, I just registered but have been lurking for a couple of weeks. I really enjoy the conversation on here and everyone seems really nice.

For most of my life, I have been a weekend warrior...never even bothered to figure out my handicap. In general I have been happy shooting around 100, but I am really trying to work on my game now.

I am at an oddly fortunate part of my life; I am unemployed (looking for a position that will allow me to attend school to finish my degree) but have funds available to somewhat enjoy myself. As such, I have taken my first couple of lessons and actually spent time trying to improve my game. Bought my own first set of irons (Callaway x-18r, used) and a driver (Taylormade 09 Burner) and I really enjoy them. Got both for ~260 used so I'm pretty happy about that. Having my own equipment has helped me motivationally, as odd as that sounds.

Just wanted to say hello :) sorry if I'm a bit long-winded.

Welcome and congrats on the new clubs. I can agree that an intial upgrade from some hand-me-down or starter clubs to something a little more substantial does a lot for confidence and motivation to improve.

    • So excited you made it out! I live in Portland and go most springs. If you liked Sheep's Ranch you ain't seen nothing yet. It's incredibly picturesque and with a 2 club wind it's not a cake walk. But as far as the quality of the course in terms of challenge and interest, in my opinion it's easily the worst on the property! Also, Old Mac started as my least favorite (this was before Sheep's Ranch opened). But I listened to the fried egg podcast about it and read through Doak's descriptions and it totally changed my perspective. Now it's fighting for top spot. So excited for you!
