Hi everyone, took up golf 3 or 4 months ago I'm 22 and am loving it. Have been a sprinter a weights guy for most of late high school and uni which I finished recently. Though athletics(400m hurdles) is my main sport of choice it can lack some of the social aspects that golf allows and few friends I have run to the same level or enjoy throwing up on a track so what you gonna do...

So I've gotten in to golf, mostly for the social side as it allows me to catch up with a lot of friends that I've not seen, while being at uni as well as uncles cousins, dad and the like. Also golf puts a little less stress on my body than say football or rugby would so fits perfectly into my days off training when I'm getting some R and R.

Hope to be able to learn thing or two on TheSandTrap and hopefully add something to the forum though, my areas of experience are really sprinting, weights and software development, so maybe not all that relevant......

Thanks, IT geekery and pumping iron rarely go hand in hand, but I've always been amused easily. Bit of an addictive personality.

    • Jim Furyk To Get Tough To Win Ryder Cup Back | Golf Monthly Jim Furyk says he will pick the "toughest" and "grittiest" players he can as he looks to solve the "glaring problem" preventing the USA from winning the Ryder Cup Yea, I am not a fan of the toughness talk. I do think the idea of closers might matter more. Tiger Woods, probably had the most grit of any player in history, has a losing record at the Ryder Cup. He was just not good in team formats.  I do think US needs to fix their team formats. It seems to be a historical problem. Do people over in Europe grow up playing team format golf more often? I don't get why they tend to succeed in that format. I am not sure it is a toughness question. I think toughness matters more in singles matches, where you are on your own island having to win.
