Hello everyone,

Super happy being a member after spending a ton of time on here reading stuff as a guest. I have been playing for a year on a small 4000 yard course. But have played a handfull of rounds on a couple different par 72's while developing fundamentals but I am hoping to maybe grow my game a bit more from advice, since being a university student means no money for lessons. Still, I think I am on a good start over the past year I score on average 100 but am breaking into the 90's more often. Even broke through 90 once, everything seemed to click. My most proud moments were my 1st Birdie and Eagle.

G'day, eh. Fellow Canuck here. You've come to the right place. Participate in golf threads to build up a bit of a rep with everybody and then start a My Swing thread. Tons of great advice on here but you gotta put something in before you start pulling stuff out. Cruise around, join some conversations and make some buddies. 

Stay out of the political threads, those are death. 

Yours in earnest, Jason.
Call me Ernest, or EJ or Ernie.

Welcome eh.    My wife and I were in Niagara Falls a couple of weeks ago and was disappointed to only hear two people say "eh".    Lovely country.   Enjoy the forum.

Thanks, can you tell me what new things might open up for a newer member as time goes on. Once again thank you for the welcome. 

I'm gonna go along with @Ernest Jones.  Start a my swing thread. 

Also, there is a lot of good factual information here. You should have as much reading as you want for quite awhile.

On behalf of all Canadians thank you. I have never been to the falls. The Eh thing is a bit of a Prarie's thing but we are all proud of it. And poutine!

No. Just a quick in and out for a 60 minute meeting. Leaving in the AM.

    • Day 121: did a bit of mirror work with my driver. Working on shortening the backswing.
    • Day 305 - Grip and backswing work. Full swings were bothering the hip a bit. 
    • Day 56 - 2024-11-15 Light day. Lots of catch-up work. Checked the grip to make sure I wasn't compensating there, and did a little backswing work.
    • Day 197 (15 Nov 24) - Played in the Friday men’s group outing - blustery conditions in play (wind gusting 10-20; spotty pop up misting rain; temps in the mid 50’s), so it was a good day to work on course management.  Solid round of 83 (41/42) - 7 GIR, total 32 putts - included 10 pars (3 being up and downs), a dbl and triple bogie.  
    • Have been on a mid to low 80’s roll of late - today was no different with an 83 (41 front / 42 back).   Played in the Friday men’s group outing - blustery conditions in play (wind gusting 10-20; spotty pop up misting rain; temps in the mid 50’s), so it was a good day to work on course management, delivering 7 GIR, total 32 putts - included 10 pars (3 being up and downs), a dbl and triple bogie.  Local course starting to get that winter feel - wet areas wetter, thin grass thinner, greens  trickier.
