Hello from Ireland

[Asmanning95]

HI! My name is Andrew and as you can tell I am from Ireland. I'm currently 20 years old and have been playing golf for about 5 or 6 years. I have (generally) been improving all the time and currently play off 11. I've visited these forums a few times over the last while and eventually decided to sign up. There is some really good discussion. I made a deal with my dad that if i can get to single figures before he gets off 28 I can get custom fit for a new set of clubs, so it's nice to have a good goal to work towards. If I get a chance I'll take some videos of my swing for the my swing thread to hear what ideas everyone has (is an iPhone video enough for that or does the quality need to be higher?)

Looking forward to the conversations!

Welcome to TST, I'm sure you'll enjoy your time here.  Just a few weeks ago I toured along the west of Ireland, from Ballyliffin to Waterville, and had a great time.

I ha a read through the thread actually. Sounded like a great trip! Haven't played a huge amount over that side of the country, however I have played Enniscrone. It must have been the nicest day they have ever had, not a breath of wind. Resulted in one of my best rounds ever, although i was playing off a much higher handicap. I pretty much exclusively play on the South side of Dublin and almost all of the rounds are Inter-club matches. I'm glad you enjoyed the trip across and hopefully will return!
