Hi all

[Huck]

Well, I guess I've been bitten by the "golf bug."  I played in a little league at an executive course about 18 years ago in my teens, then have played only a handful of times since then.  I recently moved back to Minnesota, where there's only one course within about 75 miles of me, and I've been playing pretty regularly over the past few months.  I went out and bought a complete set of "Icon" golf clubs from Play It Again Sports, and have been using that.

I go to the range 3-4 times a week, and try to golf at least 2 rounds per week.  After a few times at the range, and an hour lesson from the local pro, I've been shooting around 90 pretty consistently.  When I first started I had an extremely fast backswing, and a horrible over-the-top downswing, producing a devastating slice.  I'm still working on slowing down, and I've started to get that slice under control, and even get the nice little draw now-and-again.

Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself and say thanks for the info a lot of you have posted on here.  I've been reading as much as I can to try to understand everything that's going on with my swing, so I've been "lurking" here for a while.  Just decided it's time to say hi!

Good luck on the courses, all.

Huck,

Welcome to The Sand Trap! Where in Minnesota do you live? I live in Zimmerman which is off of 169 about 30 minutes north of Maple Grove.

Welcome,

Alan

Yeah I know where Zimmerman is, I grew up in North Minneapolis.  Traveled around the country a bit, and now I'm living in I-Falls.  Only one course here, but looks like I can make some day trips down to Bemidji, Duluth, or Brainerd to get some really good golfing in.

Thanks for the welcome!!!
