I have only been Golfing for the last 4 years. My dad is a die hard and I finally caught the bug because of him. I play all over the area, but spent most of my time at Warren Golf Course at Notre Dame last year. It's a bit over my head, but it's a great course.

Hello from the same city...we will have to play some time....I play Erskine GC most times, it is 5 minutes from my house. Warren is nice, but a bit expensive for me except for once or twice a year.

I have an advanage, my Dad works at Warren! I play Warren with my dad less than I would pay to play Erskine. I usually play Erskine a couple times a year.

My area to-do list this year is: Juday Creek, Whittaker Woods (taking Dad there for his B-day) in New Buffalo and Angel's Crossing in Vicksburg.

I may try to get to Hawkshead in South Haven, but it's not in my price range.

You will enjoy Juday Creek...a bit of water but a nice course, challenging, too.

We have lots of great courses at very reasonable prices around here...even Warren and Blackthorn are very reasonable compared to like courses around the US.

I had to look around to figure that one out too. Go into the where you edit your signature. On the right hand side are a bunch of smiley faces. Click the {more} tab under them and scroll down. You'll see them.

    • Day 64 (13 May 26) - last practice of golf team for the school golf team….got to hit a few balls while working with the kids.  
    • 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.
    • 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)

    • Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.
