Hi All.

I wanted to let everyone know that I just signed up and that I enjoy golf very much. I'm located around the Louisville area, and I am looking for a local golf course to join. I'm hoping that I can find some advice from people who are more experienced than myself. Please respond and let's get to know one another.

I'll close by say, it's better to be at the golf course than at work.  Let's go!

TangoDiesel, some great deals at local clubs in Louisville right now.  Are you looking for just golf, golf and social, golf, social, and a pool?  Let me know and I'll be glad to share my experience with some of the local clubs.

Dear Highscoreinky,

Greetings. I would say at this point I'm just looking for somewhere to play golf for me and my two older boys & we're not necessarily interested in alot of fluff (don't have the $$).  My boys tell me that they want to play golf, but they have a hard time listening when I try and teach them - that will probably be my next thread! LOL. What can you share with me?  Thanks.

Welcome Tango!  I have also heard Woodhaven is a pretty good deal on memberships.  But you should shop around.  With the economy, you may be able to get a great deal at a little bit better course.  A few years ago, I heard Oxmoor was hurting for members.

I play so little, that I usually go to Nevel Meade.  If you haven't played there, treat yourself!  And it is only around 30-50 bucks, depending on time and day.

Thank you very much!  It's great to be here, I'm already feeling like I'm getting to know some people.  Have you been playing much this year?

Hey Dartguy,

I'm like you . . .  as I have heard that some local clubs are trying to gather bigger attendence, but it's hard. I have played Sleepy Hollow and Nevel Meade, both worth the money.  I have a local course down the road, but they are asking around $1000 per year for BASIC membership and cart.  Not sure if I want that or just play here and there as I feel like it.   Your thoughts?

Hi BigAl5150 - Glad to meet you.  Would you happen to be a Van Halen fan?  (The 5150 reminded of them) - sorry for showing my age, but how is the golf course where you're at?

Regards,

TangoDiesel

Hey Tango,

Sorry I haven't been here in a while.  I don't get to play much lately (haven't hit a ball yet this year), but when I get the chance to go to Nevel, I'll send you a pm.

      Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?

      Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
