Well...I generally don't lose any balls

[cireyamel]

I grew up loving golf and playing every chance I could get. One of my playing partners when I was young just turned pro. My grandfather funded building two courses that make "the lists," but he never picked a club up in his life. I lettered in college and had my handicap down to 6.3. Then I just quit, other than scrambles and charity this and that, for several years. I pretty much walked away from the game. In fact, I didn't even touch my clubs for almost three years.

My daughter turned five this spring, and I decided to accept an invitation to join a private club. It has a swimming pool during the summer and a great juniors program. So, I'm just starting to play again. I've been trying to play three times a week, but various USGA events have foiled that a few weeks lately.

I'm embarrassed by my GHIN. It's a little over 22. But it's a completely honest 22 by the rules of golf...another nice thing about playing every round with people completely committed to the spirit of the game...you just don't fudge it, ever.

My typical round was yesterday. I had two net double eagles and still shot 101/net 75.

I look forward to reading the forum to see what others are doing.

Welcome aboard. I'm sure you'll get down from 22 in no time.
