My name is Rebecca and I am 22 years old. I've just arrived back in Mariposa, Ca., in the Sierra foothills. I have been living in Girvan in Scotland for the last 15 years and have unfortunately picked up a few bad habits, the worst being my Scottish twang (accent). My dad was based over there and of course that pretty much meant I was.

I am really looking forward to getting into the golf scene here, once I get properly unpacked and my clubs arrive with the rest of our worldly goods. I was checking out this site yesterday and it really got me in the mood. Some great posts about Stack and Tilt, Bobby Jones swing, an so on.

I obviously have not yet played here but played plenty in Caledonia, with Turnberry and Royal Troon not far from my village. They love to talk about golf in Scotland and I spent many evenings in our clubhouse enjoying great old Scottish tales about ghosts and demons that haunt the game. It could get quite scary at times. I'm sure they were just picking on me because I was a female in their very male club.

Anyway I am glad to join this forum and hope to retell some of my experiences in that ancient golf land.

Thanks for having me.

Thank you for the warm welcome.


Welcome to the Sand Trap.  As the father of a 14 year old daughter who I wish took more of an interest in golf, it's great to see women involved in the game.  I also voted 0-50... and I too look forward to stories about Scotland.

    • 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
