Happy Thanksgiving! 

Currently living in Dayton, but have family all over the state.

I get out and play about once a week. I've been playing a little less lately and mostly practice anyway, two or three times a week.

Home course is Beavercreek Golf Club.

My occupation is research engineer, and I have interests in vehicles, sports and music/djaying.

Thanks, I might do that. I'd love to play more but my free time is pretty limited since I have two young kids. Usually I can sneak in an hour at the range after work.

I have some videos of my swing but I don't like how it looks. Maybe some feedback will help me change the picture.

Welcome to the Gem City.

My mom actually lives in a plat about 1 mile south of Beavercreek Golf Club and I still work down that way. A friend has abused me out there a time or two, but I prefer flatter and cheaper courses. I play Kittyhawk and the hometown Miami Shores.

We also have a couple of other guys in the general area. @CarlSpackler is back here from Florida much to his chagrin. Just north of here is @Jeremie Boop. We usually get together once or twice a season.

Thanks guys. Beavercreek is a pretty good time. Definitely have lost my fair share of balls there - enough that I learned where the hot spots are for finding lots of lost balls!

I've played Kittyhawk a few times in outings. Don't remember which of the 3 9s.

@klineka I saw from your game golf profile that you played at Turnberry. My sister lives right by there. Only played it once or twice though. 

Go Bucks!

Actually, it's 3 18s at the moment. The Eagle, the Hawk and The Falcon.

It's my scruffy old muni.

Right now we are waiting on consultants to tell the City of Dayton what they need to do to stop losing so much money on golf. Unlike Beavercreek, they can't afford what they drop on it. The scuttlebutt around Kittyhawk is that the Hawk might get shut. ... It doesn't really make the most sense financially, but it would probably be the most PC decision for them to make. Community is historic and Madden is in West Dayton, either of those would be met with hostility from people that have never swung a golf club.

Yessir, It's one of the local courses owned by the City of Columbus. Not a bad track, fairly open for the most part, has a couple holes that can play pretty long depending on the wind direction. I probably get out to Turnberry 1-3x a year

      I think I like this hole.  It is a clear "Risk-Reward" choice.  Since most of the shots in your cone cleared the bunkers I would say they are a minor risk and not a big issue.  Playing the aggressive line may give you 70ish yards in from what looks to be playable rough while conservative play is 120ish from fairway.  I know you said 70 vs 120 is minor for you but how does the approach angle in impact your results?  I figure both strategies are playing for Birdie since holing out from either is mostly luck. Looking at your proximity hole I think it says @ 50 feet when hitting from the fairway from 100-150 and 40 feet if hitting 50-100 from the rough.  Neither of those is an easy birdie putt.   I like the approach angle from the rough between the bunkers & the adjacent tees over the angle from @ 120 in the fairway but I really do not like the idea of hitting onto the adjacent tee boxes and that may impact my confidence with making the shot.  Also, too far left may be a worse approach angle then from the fairway short of the bunkers. For me this may come down to how confident do I feel when I reach that tee box.  If I am stroking it well off the tee leading up to the hole I would try for over the bunkers and the better angle in but if I am struggling that day I would likely opt for the fairway to take more bad stuff out of play.
