Hi from New Jersey

[LeanMachine]

Hi, I'm Jim. I live in North Brunswick and play around there. I usually go to Tara Greens or the Rutgers course. I graduated from Rutgers 2 years ago. My dad bought me my first set of clubs when I was young, around 13. I had always been into other sports during school - tennis, baseball, snowboarding, soccer... so I was never a serious player while in school.

Recently, my other friends have gotten really into golf, and so have it. I switch to a "Moe Norman grip" recently, and it's been helping me a lot to straighten out my shots. I've gotten better at putting and chipping too. Just working on not slicing my driver and then I'll be trying to get my true handicap. I like to play any course around nj, but the cheaper the better. Lol.
