Hello everyone, just wanted to drop a line and introduce myself. Name's Patrick and I'm about as new to the sport as they come. I would have never seen myself picking up the game at 35 years of age! After my promotion my Boss decided to come into my office and tell me that that we are going to handle some business with clients at the club.... Well the conversation totally changed tunes to the idea that I need to learn the game... By the end of the day, I was handed two bags 16 golf clubs.... As my boss put it "he needed an excuse to tell the wife that he needed to buy a new set". So now here I am! I'm looking forward to browsing around and doing my research.

Hey Patrick, welcome to TST. There's a ton of info here with regards to new golfers, there's also some great guys here than can help you to improve your game, and a forum for member swings, i.e. you video your swing and get some solid feedback on areas that may need improvement. Here's a link to some great drills to help your swing.  http://purestrike5sk.com/videos.php

Enjoy your stay.

    • Day 159: did a stack session.  
    • Day 84 - 2024-12-23 I hit balls for 20 minutes after lessons and after getting down a BodiTrak for resale. Hinge. Path was weirdly consistent today at 1.6° or so ± like 0.8° only.
    • Day 13: 12/23/2024 A lot more mirror work today. Using my same swing thought. Some slow motion, some full motion, some in between. Today I made sure I took every swing all the way to the finish. 
    • Day 234 (23 Dec 24) - Mystery Monday - what to do today….pretty straight up as I spent time with the 58 and a series of pitches (lower flighted all the way up to high fliers over the tulip tree).  Wrapped up the day going lower ball with the 9i and easy bump and runs.  Again as always the setup was key - case in point, got lazy and casually set up, feet straight and promptly hit a couple of nice heely shots hard right.  Knew it immediately, as next couple I went through the routine and flew the balls promptly too the target point.  Setup - setup - setup…
