Hey everybody, checking in from San Diego.  I just started getting back into golf in the last year or so after playing a bit as a kid and drifting away from the game for 10 or 15 years.  After a round or two with my old clubs, i ditched my old set of Wilson K-Mart Specials and am just about done putting together a new bag of used stuff off of Craigslist.  So far I've been shooting mid/low 90s with an occasional dip into the 89-88 territory, but I'll admit to being a very forgiving scorekeeper so I'm not sure how much that counts.  I'm looking forward to learning from all of you guys and hopefully being able to contribute something of my own, too!

Welcome aboard,

I wish I started out with scores like that when I got back into the game.

I look forward to hearing from you in the forums.

    • You get a penalty stroke because your local committee didn't do their job, they didn't address the specific conditions using the tools available to them within the Rules.  The rulemakers contemplated just this situation, bunkers being so filled with Temporary Water that they're unplayable.  The only way to address it "fairly" is to allow free relief outside the bunker, and they do NOT want to allow that on an everyday basis.  So they write the rules as it is, and allow the Committee to override the normal rule in the rare instance where the bunker really is full.  That's what your "local league" does, they invoke Model Local Rule F-16, which treats flooded bunkers as both GUR and as General Area.  Relief from GUR in the General Area allows relief in the General Area (i.e. outside the re-defined bunker).  Its quite a logical way to approach a relatively rare situation. Separately, consider your concern about temporary Water in the fairway.  I've seen situations in relatively level fairways where the Nearest Point of Complete Relief  from Temporary Water is 30 or 40 yards away, further from the green, even in the rough.   
    • There you go, @yungbuck6. Your hips aren’t really shifted forward and your head tips back. The camera angle isn’t good so what looks like hip slide could actually just be extension towards the ball.
    • But there's more to weight shift than just where you finish. How your weight transfers throughout the swing matters too.  But you're saying you can see it better than a device that can measure it? Got it.  Yeah I'm good here, good luck to whoever tries to coach you.
