My wife and I spent 3 months on the range before we hit the course for the 1st time - it drove the membership saleswoman crazy and she kept threatening to drag us out herself. All I can say is just get out there - we played afternoons until we felt we could keep up with the pace of play of the morning crew.

Thanks :) We've gone to one local course (9-hole) so far. We're going there again this weekend if the weather is good. Most people there are beginners and people are patient, so it works out well. I shot a 49 (par 30). Hopefully I'll do better this time. I hit a fairway from every tee. This time I'm hoping to hit my OWN fairway each time.

Big goals...

This is going to be a great track when it matures. Unfortunatly it will probably be lined with houses by the time that happens.

This course just began a major renovation within the last few weeks with one of Jack Nicklaus's leading architects.

Pretty nice course. My 'home' course for lunch practice. Driving range is so-so and chipping area is rock hard unfortunately.

Closer to my home and my Saturday course. Driving range has excellent distance markers and mats. Chipping area varies from soft, long grass to harder ground. Very busy though. Oddly enough the putting green is huge, but only has six holes.

    • God I hate when golf can’t give me n+1 day of success. Drives me up the wall when my body is, FU! Im like, ok let’s check the vid. Yep too much turn, arms getting behind me. Ok, I work on that. Get the feel back for a shorter swing. Confirm with video. Then going back to arms down stuff.  Arms down, nope it’s hands out towards the ball. Oh, you get arms down better. Guess what, you don’t get to rotate and you hit 6 inches behind the ball. Yay!  Maybe I should have walked off the range and not wasted my time. I wish there was a body alert system when it’s going to a SOB for the day. 😭 OK rant over, I’ll be back at this tomorrow.

    • I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.      
    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
