Hello everyone. My name is Chas, I'm 23 and I've been playing for almost 3 years. I've browsed around TST for a little while now and finally decided to join. Originally from Columbus, OH but I currently live in Texas. I am in the United States Air Force and work in the medical field. I don't know my specific handicap but I usually shoot in the low to mid 80's. I just broke 80 (shot a 79) for the first time ever a couple weeks ago (Hit the best 7 iron of my life on the 18th to secure a 5 foot putt and my birdie for the 79).

My current clubs are:

Adams Speedline Driver 9.5 degree

Wilson Staff Pi5 Irons 3-pw

Crappy starter set putter

Thank you! Have you gone and played Longaberger yet? That is my favorite course up there.

    • . I've been Playing Golf for: 10 years, 1 year consistently  My current handicap index or average score is: 100 My typical ball flight is: fade The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: inconsistent ball strike   I caught the bug about a year ago and have been playing roughly once a week. Have been getting better with my short game and putting but my ball striking from tee and fairway lets me down. Had my first lesson last month which identified an over the top swing compensated by an open club face. Have been trying everything to get on plane over the last month. Have found that using a bend and press into my left leg as the trigger for my downswing coupled with finding the turn and rotation in both my arms to release the club properly has helped my get nearer to the correct plane. Video below is where I am with it currently. Haven’t taken this new swing to the course yet! Any comments or suggestions are welcome  Videos:  I've been Playing Golf for: 1 year properly  My current handicap index or average score is: 100 av score  
    • That's always been the deal. You put in the work hyper focused on ONE or at most two things, so that you don't have to think about anything except a single feel or the target or something on the course.
    • Blind squirrel finds a nut and putted well. no, I decided to play a round being athletic rather than paralyzing myself with swing thoughts. I have no clue if I was doing what I worked on. It was the last day and I was tired of freezing at the top of the swing not know if one of four outcomes were going to happen. 
    • Day 299 - 2025-07-26 I spent 15 minutes practicing but it was almost pointless. It wasn't good practice. I was not really in it, but I put the time in. Oh, I did some chipping work before-hand, and that was good. I could have just left after that. 🙂 
    • Well that's different.
