Hello everyone. I've been on the boards a little while now and figured it was past time that I introduce myself. I live in south central Wisconsin and am a control systems engineer for a material handeling company. I started playing 5 years ago, but after a year and a half had to quit. I just started back again this year. My first round this year was a 136! I've brought that down a bit! I took one lesson at golftec and the video opened my eyes to my biggest flaw. I have a bad bad problem with falling back onto my right side while swinging. I've been able to fix this with my irons but not with my woods yet. I can hammer it out on the range and get my driver working right up until I step onto the first tee! So right now, it rarely comes out of my bag! I feel like I am striking the ball very well for the most part. I still average about 2 holes out of nine that I really screw things up and drive my score up. My biggest problem right now is off the tee, second I still have the occasional duffed shot that only goes 50 yds. Anyway, I really love the game and have been teaching my finance to play this year. And by teaching I mean helping her with the basic fundamentals. After 3 months, she is playing great! I really love having her to play with and it allows me to play alot more too!!!

    • 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.
