Don't really have a 'home' course since I am not a member anywhere, although I hope to change that this year some time. I play a handful of courses fairly regularly but play the one in the link above the most often as it is just a couple minutes from the house. Makes it easy to get out to walk 9 or hit some practice balls.

FINALLY, I get to make a post on this thread!! I noticed the thread months ago, but was not a member anywhere at that time. But I had begun to research several clubs in my area. It was a big decision for a golf addict, so I took it serious. I ended up touring and playing about eight different clubs, which was great (free golf, free food!). I knew a couple of the clubs from having played tournaments, etc. and it's funny how my preconceived notions of some of the clubs was so drastically different from my firm opinion once I had a chance to spend time there, talk to members, tour the facilities, experience a lunch or dinner and, of course, play the course.

The club that I never gave a second thought to prior to the beginning of my formal search ended up blowing me and my wife away when we took the tour. We were sold from very early on, but I wanted to do my due diligence. Once I had finished touring the other clubs, I tried to talk several friends into joining which took a few weeks to get them to tour the club and try out the course, but ultimately I was only able to talk one of them into joining.

So, after many months of wanting to be able to post here, I can finally do it! After a 30 day wait period, this week I officially became a member of Sunset Country Club in St. Louis. Founded by August A. Busch, Sr. (yep, THAT Busch) in 1916, it sits in a hilly area of town with great views of the Meramec Rivery Valley. Although it's probably only a 15 minute drive to downtown St. Louis, once you're in the club, you'd think you're in a faraway hillside community....just a very serene place. It's filled with great, laid back people as well and with temps in the 60s this weekend, I can't wait to start enjoying this course.....

    • The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.
    • I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
