Intro from West Virginia

[Norm66]

Hello everyone. I just started golfing a little less than two weeks ago. It was a company scramble that got me involved. I'd never golfed at all and my goal the entire outing was for my team to use my ball just once. Turned out we used three of my longer shots and I made two putts as well. One of the puts was a 25-30 footer that put our team two under par for the win. So, encouraged by a little (very little) success I decided to do it again.

A friend who is an avid golfer took me to the range for some basics. I went from trying to kill the ball with little directional or distance success to swinging much easier and improving accuracy quite a bit. Unfortunately my distance stayed about the same, but he tells me that at this stage I should be happy to hit the ball at all. So I'm happy.

Anyway, this looks like a friendly place with some knowledgeable folks. I hope to meet some of you and gain from your experience.

Cheers,
Norm
