Just starting to get serious with my golf game, just a little over three months and been playing 2-3 times a week, since the weather is perfect for golf.

Got introduced to it 10 years ago, before I moved to Oregon. Never really liked it because my friends didn't want to teach. But rather laugh at how I would get fustrated.  Now I'm serious and got some lessons a few years back at Redtail and was looking for other places that provide good lessons around here

Also, does anyone in the Portland area know of some challenging courses? Lately I've been playing at Quail Valley, Redtail, Forrest Hills and Merriweather. I occasionally play some nine hole courses after work. However, after playing nine holes, it makes me feel unsatisfied and wanting to play more.

Hopefully, visiting this forum can help me out. I still need to go over the entire forum and see what is out there.

    • Nothing exposes low point control, and for that matter the general quality of ball striking like tight lies. Lol! I am at a crossroad. My days of playing with a super strong left hand grip are coming to an end it seems. I'm finding it increasingly difficult to maintain proper face control through impact as the club face naturally wants to turn over. The quality of strike and ball flight difference when I weaken the grip is stark. Problem is a weaker grip is at odds with my poor sore left forearm which I have been nursing for last few days after 3 days of demanding golf. As of now I will continue my 'transition' to a weaker grip with woods and hopefully my forearm will condition as I go along. Maybe someday I'll get to a normal address with irons too.
