Greetings from San Francisco! I'm new to the site and am looking to get back into golf in the Bay area. I played sparingly growing up, but I've got some good friends that play pretty frequently out here and I'd like to get up to speed. Any recommendations for good beginner courses would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Great to have you on the site.  I grew up in Millbrae and went to USF.  Great courses to start at would be Lincoln Park and Poplar Creek in San Mateo.

Welcome. I'm also from SF and went to school at USF too. As mvmac says, Lincoln Park is a good place to play for beginners and it's a very good rate. You also might wanna check Golden Gate Park's par-3 course and also Gleneagles is a very good 9-18 hole course.

My favorite city.  My dad was born there, and I spent a good portion of my preteen years there while my Grandpa was in and out of the VA hospital.

    • A strong grip cups the wrist (lead) and then it wants to flatten through impact, something I used to be able to avoid to keep it from going left and protecting my forearm (the main premise of my set up). Longer the club, harder it is becoming. Either way, yes, I need to transition to gripping it open. 
    • Why don't you grip it "open" so you can return your hand to the place where you're comfortable/not sore, but the ball won't go left? It's effectively weaker… without actually "being" weaker?
    • Day 47 - 2024-11-16 Light backswing work with about 3 or 4 rehearsals for every ball hit. Only about ten minutes while waiting for a potential member to show up (he was 25 minutes late). 😛 
    • Idk but I would have to imagine that a putter that is aimed where you think it's aimed would be the most important aspect of a putter
