Hello everyone, I'm brand new here, and to golf. I live in Tucson, Arizona, I'm a graduate student, working on a Master's Degree in US History. Honestly, until about a week ago, I had little to no interest in golf. Without warning however, suddenly, I'm in love with the game. I don't know where the interest came from, but I'm glad it did.

I just bought a set of clubs to get myself started with. I'm doing all the reading and studying I can do. I plan on hitting the driving range a few nights this week, and once the sweltering summer passes, I'll start playing some rounds.

I'm the sort if guy who strives to excel in everything he does. I have no concept of golf, but I was a very good baseball player in high school, and have become a very good bowler as well. I hope that talent along with my ambition, dedication, enthusiasm, hard work, and natural talent can eventually lead to me becoming a scratch golfer.

However it goes, I'm looking forward to be a very active participant around here so I can learn as much as possible, and fuel my excitement.

    • Day 283: Putted on my mat for a while watching an NLU video. Worked on keeping my head still primarily, and then making sure my bead is okay.
    • I do not follow amateur or Korn Ferry tour but this story might get me to pay attention. At age 15 to be as accomplished as he is makes me think we may be seeing a future star.  A story of him breaking out may help reinvigorate golf viewership. Miles Russell has a hot start, cools off but finishes with a 68 in first Korn Ferry event Miles Russell, a 15-year-old Jacksonville Beach resident, made his Korn Ferry Tour debut on...  
    • Day 8: Indoor backswing work, mostly rehearsals of takeaway. Hit some balls wtih 6-iron working on adding flow, but not too Much which I tend to do, swaying too far away from target. 
    • Day 55: 4/18/2024 Got to the range again today. Planned to do my priority pieces and then hit targets with irons. But after my priority pieces I hit a few drives and tugged them all hard left. .... Uh... oh boy.  So, I spent about a half hour trying to hit targets at the range with my driver. 
    • Day 126 (18 Apr 24) - Trail arm only drill with the LW…focused on letting the club drop, engaging the bounce and letting the club pop the ball up….wrapped up by repeating drill with both hands on the club…
