Hello from the Pacific Northwest

[dirtsaver]

Glad to have found this site.  It looks like the resource I need after being out of the game for 28 years.  I took golf in college as a physical education credit and fell in love with the game.  I nearly flunked out of college my junior year because of it.  Motorcycle racing and a professional career took me away from golf.

Now that I'm retired and my temperament has mellowed I'm anxious to get on the course again.  I tried one time a year ago and realized that I had lost everything but the desire.  The golf instructor (who is my age) said that my clubs were old fashioned.  With that I went out and bought all new clubs except for my sand wedge and my Ping putter.

I've been surprised by the advances in equipment but somewhat disappointed In the rulemaking bodies.  It reminds me of when they started restricting the motors in the Indy cars.  Now I am trying to sort out what equipment is allowed and what is not. As a senior player I can use all the distance help I can get but not at the risk of using "illegal" clubs.

Anyway, it is good to find you folks,

Dan
