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!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 9, May 13.  After work, I went to my practice room for a dozen balls (two sessions of a half dozen each).  I may do more later, but I wanted to make sure I posted here too.  Same priority as yesterday, with the arms lifting.

      Too Old ?

      By Shindig · Posted

      Hi @RetiredOldMan!  I am glad to see you are still playing and having good scores.  I hope that when I am 79, I am not only able to play, but still able to produce as good scores as you have been doing.   I look forward to hearing more of your success and your opinion of the senior flex shafts.

      Too Old ?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      Hello Golfing Buddies, It has been awhile since I posted but I am the Retired Old Man that asked for advice because I suffered two "T.I.A.'s about switching from playing right handed to playing left handed.  I purchased a Callaway Edge Left handed golf clubs. I changed the grips to oversize grips.  Well, two weeks ago and still at 79 years old, I shot a 44 and 47 on a small course in my hometown.  I am currently changing my shafts from regular flex to Senior flex.  So, you can see' it can be done! So, you other old timers; get with the program! Blessings to all of you. Retired Old Man (Terry Warner)
