Hello from Massachusetts

[Leebonium]

I've played golf since I was little, and I was the captain my high school team, but when I started working full-time I stopped playing more than a handful of times per year. Fast forward 10 years, and I decided over the summer that I would get new clubs (had been using the same ones from high school for 10+ years) and start playing a lot.

I re-established my handicap, and it's currently 12.8, but falling quickly as I shake the rust off. For instance, yesterday I shot a 76 on a 69.5/126 course, so I think I'm close to my high school form and headed for single digits. The first month or so was a complete horror show, because I can hit the ball pretty far but had extremely erratic control.

I played in a few local amateur events, but that was before I really hit my stride. I'm joining this site so that I can stay motivated over the winter!

Here's hoping!
