I can play 7200 yards, but its not as much fun as 6400. Doesn't matter to me Ill go wherever the majority likes to play from. Hitting 9 iron into Par 4's is a lot more fun than 4 iron.

If you want to play a round when you are down here, I always enjoy playing with other TSTers. 

Side note, my daughter was born in N VA when we lived there in the 90s.

I'll definitely send out a request to any TST'ers in the area that want to play.  Always good to meet others from the site.  

I've only lived in No VA since 2006.  But I do love it here.  Crazy traffic and all.

I certainly don't miss that, but there was always something going in there. Great area.

Going by handicaps, I'm nowhere near the golfer either you or Carl are (or David, he'll probably be along shortly)  but I live close to Orlando and I usually have that whole week off.

That would be awesome! No worries about handicap. You're up around Ocala, correct?

I am also hoping to coordinate a winter outing down here for all the locals and anyone else who might want to escape the great white north. Was thinking maybe February???

I'll second the no worries about the handicap. My dad is a 33, the company is way more important then the golf game.

Very true. Yes Carl, I live in Ocala so driving to Orlando is no issue. Like I mentioned, I usually take that whole week off so if you guys want to play, just let me know when. Just keep in mind that if it's a Sunday, I never miss a Jet's game lol.

Sounds like a plan! I'm pretty open other than next Saturday. Taking the red eye back from Oregon and don't get home until 5AM. I hope to sleep on the flight, but you never know if there will be a screaming kid on the plane.

I would be interested in this if you put together. @colin007 and I were semi serious about an ugly Hawaiian (or tropical) shirt golf outing down this way. Might be wrong but I think there was interest from @Jeremie Boop and @mcanadiensMaybe we should do it. 

My game is so horrible right now I will need the time to get better just to shoot under 110!  Budget season has put a strain on my time and I can barely hit the ball but will do my best to get a few lessons and some practice in before.

I'd love to go to Florida in February. It can't happen. I'm in tax-season jail at that point.

Soonest I might be able to do anything would be May.

      First Season With Blades - Let's Discuss

      By tomfig · Posted

      I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙

      My Swing (Tomfig)

      By tomfig · Posted

      Hi All my New Year’s resolution was to start playing golf again. I’ve caught the bug and am really enjoying hitting balls at a couple of my local ranges.looking forward to getting back out on courses in the spring. Based in the UK and 38 years old, I’ve been playing since I was a kid. Best handicap I’ve held is 2 in my mid 20s. Over the past 10 years I’ve played once or twice a year, sometimes with friends or for work. Could shoot 4-5 over, but just as easily shoot 15-20 over. I’ve moved to South Wales and am very lucky to be near some world class links courses, which gives me even more motivation to get playing again! I will start looking for a local coach in my area when I have more time to invest, but I recalled scouring this forum a few years ago and finding some good tips and advice so wanted to give it a try to see if there were any glaring issues I could fix in the meantime!  A few swings below… one from 1st week Jan and one from today. I have fixed my P1 takeaway to my liking and am now working on what I see as pretty severe early extension & hip thrust. Also terrible hip rotation. I’d like confirmation that this is indeed a problem and and suggestions on a few good drills. Thanks for reading 🙂 I've been Playing Golf for: 30+ years My current handicap index or average score is: 10ish over My typical ball flight is: mid The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: push right with irons, hooks and push with driver!  Videos:
