Hello sand trap vets! My name is Derek but most of my friends call me Hammy and I'm a 27 year old golf rookie. I've always been intrigued by the game and got out once or twice a year if I was lucky but I have recently become what my wife calls "obsessed" with the game. I'm currently using all hand-me down clubs; Dunlop DPW 431 stainless irons and woods and a Cleavland Hibore driver. (Would love some feedback on the clubs) I'm here to learn as much as I can and hope to get to know all of you better!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 45 (27 Dec 25) - played at one of the sisters courses to my home course.  Solid session through the bag….of the 7 pars, 4 were up and down 1 putts (wedges were dialed in) from 6’ or less.  Off the tee - solid, irons were consistent even it a bit under on distances.  Course management was on - stayed the course even with a few offline recovery shots required…

      Day 453 - 2025-12-27 Two things today for about 48 balls (I like to hit three or six balls at a time before taking a small break to pick them up): Right leg stays flexed a bit, internal rotation on the backswing. Kept my eyes looking at the ball and trusted that the backswing was fine.

      Day 137 12-27 Worked on wider backswing today and tried to remain flowy. Recorded face on and down the line. Swing is looking better but I mentally felt off today, just frustrated. Tomorrow's a new day!

      2025 TST Birdie Challenge

      By Maroon88 · Posted

      I guess I'll stay at -16 for this year's challenge.  I never birdied holes 7, 13 (the 2 hardest holes) in 2025.  Also had a couple Eagle putts on the par 5's, but didn't convert either time.  Looking forward to 2026, though!
