After about 12 years I started playing again late last year. Got new clubs over the holidays, but have to wait to use them. Also, swing needs work so hoping you all will be able to help once the ground thaws, or I make it to Florida for some vacation time. From what I have seen so far the site seems awsome. Thanks in advance to all with more knowledge and experience.

Hello everyone. I am very new to this but from having a look around the site I can learn loads. I'm in a very wet Dubai today but had a great day yesterday at HSBC Abu dhabi final day was not expecting that result . I am however in need of some advice. I am Scottish and took up golf 5 years ago, I am moving from Dubai to Houston end of May. Where should we look for membership?? My husband and I curre are members at Emirates golf club in Dubai and would like similar standard . I play with an 11 handicap my husband 8. Golf for us is not just a game but also where we do most of our socialising . Hubby's office is in Jersey village area so looking to live and golf not too far. Any I put would be grateful received in anticipation thanks

    • Day 45 (27 Dec 25) - played at one of the sisters courses to my home course.  Solid session through the bag….of the 7 pars, 4 were up and down 1 putts (wedges were dialed in) from 6’ or less.  Off the tee - solid, irons were consistent even it a bit under on distances.  Course management was on - stayed the course even with a few offline recovery shots required…
    • Day 453 - 2025-12-27 Two things today for about 48 balls (I like to hit three or six balls at a time before taking a small break to pick them up): Right leg stays flexed a bit, internal rotation on the backswing. Kept my eyes looking at the ball and trusted that the backswing was fine.
    • Day 137 12-27 Worked on wider backswing today and tried to remain flowy. Recorded face on and down the line. Swing is looking better but I mentally felt off today, just frustrated. Tomorrow's a new day!
    • Day 8 - 2025-12-27 45 minutes of short game work at local muni, mostly putting work. Trying to get lots of reps in with consistent quality tempo.
    • I guess I'll stay at -16 for this year's challenge.  I never birdied holes 7, 13 (the 2 hardest holes) in 2025.  Also had a couple Eagle putts on the par 5's, but didn't convert either time.  Looking forward to 2026, though!
