Hi there. I'm new to the game and new to this forum. I'm currently hitting the driving range ever so often, and I've yet to play my first round.
Hope to have some fun conversations with everyone in the future!

Thanks for the welcome. Well, I haven't taken a lesson yet. I've just been duffing at the ball (with the occasional whack). Plus, I'm a lefty player. I've just been watching Playing Lessons on the Golf Channel and watching that for help. Then the embarassment sets in when I swing and the ball goes 5 feet to the right. I know, you have to crawl before you walk...

way to go, I'm a Lefty as well, read my signature at the bottom of every post....small world, we're gaining on em though......hang in there, go to the range as much as possible and if you have some Par3 courses hit those as well, the more you play the better...also go out to a baseball field and hit balls from 1 back stop to another....anything to practice your swing and ball striking. Most importantly, have fun, enjoy the game, don't make it like your job (unenjoyable)

I appreciate the help. I'd love to get out to the range this week, but it's supposed to rain all week where I live. I'll probably just hit the some good books and dream. *sigh*

Hey, guys! Nice to meet you both. I'm happy to be a part of the sand trap family, especially with folks from the Carolinas.

      At What Point Should I Begin Looking to Upgrade My Clubs?

      By iacas ·

      I'd find a free fitting, take your clubs, and see what you can see. For example, we have a PXG fitter come to our academy every Tuesday, and he's great about sharing info about why he's having you hit a certain shaft or clubhead or something. And… if you don't see much of a change, skip it.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 1 (3 Apr 25) - Restarting the routine after a 4 day quick trip.  Got back in the groove today for some swings of the 6i and driver into the net -‘to just warm the muscles a little.  Wrapped up the day with grandson hitting 20-25 yd pitches in the backyard.  Love watching his swing and also his concept of course management, to hear him say he left himself in a good position to finish (good words from a soon to be 9 yr old)….

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      Day 185 - 2025-04-03 Had a good 2.5 hour session at Golf Evolution. Kinda glad it was still wet and windy out today as I wouldn't have gotten such a good session in if I played. Got up to 93 MPH (with a pause) on my 6I and 130 MPH ball speed (on a different slightly slower hit, a bit more de-lofted than I'll want eventually).

      2025 TST Outing Preliminary Blabber

      By DaveP043 ·

      I'm highly probable for the entire weekend, thanks for doing the hard work to set it up.  I can't wait for more details.

      Would You Rather…?

      I take 2nd, is a confirmation that you can eventually win your major and also is good material for having a laugh about it in the distant future.
