Hello from Iowa

[Mulligans]

Hello all!

I'm new to the forum world so please forgive me if any rules or regulation's are broken. 

I currently reside in the Quad Cites (iowa side), half of the year we are frozen but during the nice months we are fortunate to have 50+ courses near by

Welcome.

Don't sweat rules and regulations too much. They'll let you know if you need to do something different, but they'll be nice about it.

Welcome, I'm also from Iowa. I live in Cedar Rapids and play most of my golf around here. Unfortunately, I've never played near your area, but I make it over there for the JDC every year.

Welcome to the forum. You haven't broken any rules that I know of, so that's good! I think I read once that the main rule is pretty simple: don't be a jerk. Not sure if that was actually posted somewhere, or if I imagined it. But it sums up the general feel of the site: all who enjoy golf are welcome, dissent is tolerated, lively debate/discussion even encouraged- but being a jerk, not so much.

This link welcomes you in with the basics.

At the top, there's also a Drop Down of How-To's that come in handy for figuring out the common things here: modifying your avatar (you get assigned one if you don't), embedding a video from youtube, etc. Good to know stuff that gives you a feel for common tasks and things people aren't sure how to do when they first join.

Welcome. I've been to your area. I remember all the John Deere equipment at the airport! I was lucky to be there in the spring.

Welcome, @Mulligans, I had to chuckle at @RandallT, that bit actually IS written down here:

As long as you can follow that one rule, you'll be a great addition to the site.
