Newbie to the game and to the forum!

Hello Everyone!

Well, I'm pretty new to playing golf. I always loved mini-putt and going to the driver range when I was younger, but never actually played. Last year I had a set of clubs given to me and I went out to play a 9 hole - now I'm hooked! The set, I found out after playing with them a few times, are juniors and much to small for me (I'm 5'2") so I finally went out and bought myself a nice 7pc ladies set.

Anyways, great forum!

Hello Everyone!

Welcome to the forum. I loved mini-putt as a kid, I wish I had the foresight to pick up golf based on that :)

One of the longest putts I ever sank (about 20 feet) happened when a friend spoke during my putting. He didn't think I could hear him whispering to another friend, "I picture a windmill when I have a long putt like this one."

I too am new to this forum and have only been playing golf a short time. Does anyone know why I cannot add a signature and cannot start a new thread?
