Hi, my name's Paul. Well, i got into golf this year, ten days ago to be exact when my dad took me for 18 holes for his birthday. I started out thinking i probably would be horrible at it and not like it, but i ended up being not too bad at it and loving it (i tied my dad on a few holes that day). Then last week i went to a par 3 course with two of my friends (it was their first time) and played 9 holes, and ended up getting on in 1 stroke and then making par (one of those putts where it just barely misses the hole). Anyway now i'm really into golf, and i figured i'd share my little story with whoever wants to read it to introduce myself.

Welcome, sounds like you got a good head start and better foundation than most beginners. Keep up the good work, golf is, in my opinion, overall the best sport.

 

 

 

 


Well i got instructed by my dad and his friend the first day and so i learned how to hold it correctly (the interlocking grip seems to work best for me, like my dad) and they told me to sweep the ball like a broom, and when i did just that rather than trying to put power into it it soared, and then i just sort of picked it up from there. I still only got 49 on a par 27 course, but i like it too much to let it bother me (that par was my best score, followed by one 4, and the rest were 5s, 6s, and 7s)

EDIT:
And thanks for welcoming me to the boards, hopefully i can learn some stuff here to get better.
