Today I had a golf lesson which has reinvigorated my interest in this great and frustrating game. I just found this forum so I am merely introducing myself.

I have decided to record my progress up to now, and on in to the future, by way of a blog at www.ragingbeard.com I know nobody may ever read it but I enjoyed writing the first post and it will at least serve as a diary and record of my progress.

I did have 3 lessons early in the year but found it hard to take away what I'd learned to use on my own. Today was entirely different as more explanation was given, and my out to in path somewhat cured!

I now need to stop watching YouTube vids as all that served to do was confuse me with information overload!

I look forward to picking peoples brains on this forum :)

Thank you!

Played pretty much my worst round ever today. 9 holes on the "green" course at Wexham Park Golf Course. Par is 32, I managed 56. On hole 5, a 196 yard par 3, I shot in 10 after driving straight into the bunker off the green.

I did expect trouble as I am trying to use what I was shown yesterday which is still new to me... but didn't expect quite that bad lol.

    • The 2026 Thread is here:
    • Just like the 2022, 2021, 2020, 2023, 2024, and 2025 topics, we're doing it again in 2026! Once again, I'd like to birdie every hole at Whispering Woods in 2026 (and maybe every numbered hole on other courses). I'd like you to join me on this quest. This year's spreadsheet is below: 2026 TST Birdie Challenge - Google Sheets   Please click through, add your name, home course, and location, and when you make a score on the holes as you play them, update your line in the spreadsheet with your ringer score, basically. The idea is to score a birdie or better on each hole on the course this year. If you're above a certain handicap and would like to make it a par challenge, go for it! Just add that note to the Notes column. Please leave the formatting as is. And note that you only write down one score - if you birdie a hole three times, you aren't writing down -3. It's just your best individual score for each hole. We can all cheer each other on and see where this takes us! If you truly play a TON of different courses, then follow these two guidelines: If you just play a lot of golf, but still get 20 or 25 (or more) rounds in on one course, consider making that your home course and just doing the birdie challenge there. If you truly play only 20-40 rounds per year, and never more than a handful at the same course, consider trying to birdie holes numbered 1 to 18 across all of your courses. Or even doing it twice. Yeah, some hole #17s will be easier birdies than others, but that's why you might do it twice.
