Hello everyone !
 

34 years of age, new to golf, and looking to go Pro here in the next few years.

 

LOL

 

But seriously, new to the game of golf, although have watched it for years on tv. Am an ex-athlete, so am looking for a newer challenge. And uhhh ... yeah ... definitely have found it in golf lol. Really, REALLY respect and admire the Pros, as well as many of you who have, more or less, nailed this game down. 

 

With that being said, thank you for having me.

Welcome to the Sand Trap.  This is quite a place of information and help if you want it.  Plus, there are fellow golfers you can meet in the mid-Michigan area if you'd like.

 

P.S.  I don't qualify as a great source of information and help about the golf swing.

Nailed the game down, that's a funny one. Sometimes I think I am in the coffin, and the game is nailing me down. lol

At any rate, welcome to the site. You can learn alot about the game here. :tumble:

    • Day 1: 2026.01.03 Played 18 at Cape Kidnappers. Getting back into it after a few days off. Mixed results.
    • Day 40: short range session. Worked on my drill mostly. Finished with some full swings and driver swings. Range was packed because it was so nice out. Solid session though. 
    • Day 5, 1/3/26.  Today was a weird day schedule-wise, but I did find 15 minutes to hit 6-iron shots (indoors, off a mat, into a net).  I also got to thinking about yesterday's round and, other than a few thin shots (that I think were weather/grip related), I didn't have any wild non-driver shots, which was weird for me.  I need to get back to video, which is tough in my setup. Also, this wouldn't count on its own, but anyone reading this and thinking about doing their own 5 minutes daily, check out Fit for Golf's latest podcast episode.  It's only a few minutes and Mike does a great job talking about the importance of doing a bit each day.  That also reminded me, I let my FFG subscription lapse, I'm going to renew it.
