Hello all my name is Jake I am a 32 year old newbie to golf and let me  say I can say I kinda am obsessed with the game!! I go to bed thinking golf, I wake up shopping for golf stuff, I read golf magazines, and play almost every day I have off of work which is once or twice a week!!! But I don't take the game too serious cause I am out to get better and have as much fun as possible.

I love golf!!!!

Also glad to be here cause sometimes I live in the sand/bunker!!!

Awesome good for you. I’ve been playing since I was a kid, and still go to bed thinking about it. GO GET LESSONS FIRST. Don’t “get good enough” to get one. Go tomorrow! Bad habits are sooo hard to get rid of.

Welcome! Finding this site was one of the best choices you could have made. I wish I had this site when I first started playing.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Context:  I am on vacation, so I don't have access to my indoor practice room, and I won't for about a month. Day 12 (August 22).  Today's weather was not one where even I was going to be outside.  For whatever reason, I didn't do the putting drill today.  There was a drill I remembered from this site (the article was something akin to "five things you can do to improve that don't require talent") that involved having an iron along the back from stance, moving to backswing and holding, then moving to forward swing and holding.  So I did that for five minutes today. I also spent 90 minutes at the gym;  my main motivation for getting stronger is golf related (and I really should get back to Fit For Golf  specific workouts;  I'm not sure when I lost that habit, a poor choice on my part that I did).  Funny story, I spent 20 minutes on the Stairmaster today at the gym (the rest was weights and rests), a device I started with shortly after I took up golf because I read something about it in a Butch Harmon book.  I should be following FFG Mike's fitness advice though, not some memory of someone else.

      Day 325 - 2025-08-22 Practiced for almost an hour after cleaning my cabinets to account for the new GEARS cameras and helping @OBlum for a bit. Exaggerating the same old things.

      Yea, faster greens = shorter putting stroke. You can be more accurate.  Really, I think people who struggle with distance control struggle just as much on slow greens as fast greens. I've seen people blast putts 10-FT past the hole on 8 or 9 STIMP as much as 11-12 STIMP.  I prefer faster greens. Usually means the putting surface is better and again, shorter putting stroke.
