...the newest golfer at work and in my family.

Hello all.
I started playing about 1 month ago. I'm actually a pool player, but so far I love the challenges that golf has to offer.

I borrowed some clubs at first, but I have recently built my own setup.

I have a Callaway STS bag,
Nike CPR 3-PW irons,
Nike CPR fairway woods,
Nike CPR SW
and currently using a RAM driver and hitting Nike MOJO balls..

I plan to take some lessons soon. I visited Willie Carter this weekend. He has a shop nearby and would have been the Tiger Woods of his day, but the PGA didn't allow negro players back then. Gary Player was even one of his students.

I look forward to more golf challenges.
In my Arsenal.

Welcome to The Sand Trap! Not a bad set of clubs to get started. Keep up the good fight - golf has its rewards.

A pool player, eh? Tell ya what: I'll play you straight up at pool if we can hit the golf course afterwards.

Golf is an awesome sport... I picked up the clubs about a year ago and love the game. I'm glad to hear you made a pilgrimage to see Willie Carter. Its a pity he wasn't allowed to play the game. Have fun around here.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
