Hello Everyone,

Sorry to bother you all with such a question but i am new to golf. By new i mean i have played once. The one time i played i shot a 56 (+20) I have never ever played golf before because i have always thought it was stupid. Much to my poor assumption i ended up loving it. Now i am 5"10 and am 15, i am a lefty and i really want to keep golfing. Did i do as bad as the person i played with made me feel like i did or did i do somewhat decent. i truly do not know much about golf so sorry if this is a stupid commonly asked question. Its hard getting help from the person i play with because he is right handed and is my age so he is not a very good teacher... Any tips whether it is a youtube video or anything would be appreciated.

thanks, TheNewKid

Edit: by the way if it helps i play baseball football and basketball but am thinking of narrowing it down a little

I'd say that's very good for just playing your first 9 holes. Check out Mark Crossfield's videos on YouTube. He has 2 channels, "Mark Crossfield" and "4golfonline". He has helped me tremendously and I have learned a lot about my swing and the golf swing in general because of him. I'd be pretty surprised if his videos don't help your game.

Thank you!

You're welcome. Glad I could help. Also, I suggest making a swing video for the Member Swing section of the site so people can give you swing tips, drills you dhould practice based on your swing, and advice.

    • Lemme guess….’ We don’t want any confrontation so nobody says anything.’ Sheesh…..Call him out and fix the problem.
    • Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.
    • Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.
    • That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.
    • This is the part I don’t get. He’s not even kind of sandbagging, he’s blatantly doing it and submitting scores that are verified to be incorrect. How he’s not banned from competition is beyond me.
