Hi my name is Keira and I am 16 years old and have been playing golf ever since I can remember. My mom just told me I swung my 1st club at the age of 4. I used to play all the time with my dad until he past away 3 years ago in a car accident. He is the primary person who taught me the game and everytime I play now I dedicate my round to him. My mom also plays the game and so does my grandpa and we all go out every once in a while together. I also play for my highschool girls team and this year I will be the number 1 golfer on the team. The season starts at the end of this month. I also play soccer , but golf is my sports passion. I also like movies and music and just plain hanging around with my friends.

Just alot of stroke practice. If your coach is anything like mine she/he will work on a praticular shot like a wedge shot for a day or two. Then the next work on your 5 iron. There are even days that my coach says not to bring but one club to the course or range for practice. Then a day or so before a match we will play a round or two. But a bet everyone is different.

I grew up playing golf myself. However, growing up, my area's sports were golf, soccer, and baseball in the spring.

After I got cut from baseball freshman year, I went to golf. The next 3 years I played soccer. It was mainly a social thing for me. Living in(then) rurual Georgia not many friends played golf.

Looking back I wish I would have just stayed with golf. Probably could have gotten in to a D-2 school at the least.

Good Luck!

Do all fifteen get letters, thats basically what I'm asking? Do all of those scores go into your school standings in your state and Division? Thats what our Varsity team is like.

    • Day 34 (14 Dec 25) - Got outside for a few moments to work on bump and runs with the 4h (again using the exaggerated weight shift reminder of the left (lead) heel). Finding that it helps keep the downswing arc extended.

    • I am currently playing a Cobra Ltdx LS 9 degree driver and Cobra Ltdx LS FW3. Both with Tensei White stock stiff shafts and original weights of 12g (heel) and 3g (toe). My miss is usually a pull fade or sometimes a slice, swing is out to in. Driver swing speed about 112 mph. Grips are stock regular. Intended change: Driver: Switching to Tensei White x-flex one inch shorter which I suppose would be 44,5? Changing heel weight to 18g. Changing grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Change hosel setting to standard draw. FW3: Changing heel weight to 16g (apparently not available in FW weights, but supposed to be something called "internal weight" a club builder can add which fits between the weight and the screw?). Change grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Changing hosel setting to standard +1. The goal is to 1) get better grip since I tend so lose grip in warm and moist conditions with the current grips and 2) mitigate the misses to start more straight with less side spin. Also considering adding the Cobra Ltdx LS FW5 instead of my old Taylormade R9 and getting 14g heel and 6g toe weights with the same grip as the others and hosel setting standard +1.   All of the above is based on conversations with ChatGPT and, as everyone knows, it can come up with pretty much whatever but I spent a few hours asking about different perspectives etc and this was the recommendation. So, my question is basically, does it make any sense?   Thanks.
