Hello there! I am from Montevideo, Uruguay and I am 22 years old.

I got interested in golf when I was 6 years old (they gave to me some toy club set which I loved), and then I got the Tiger Woods 2004 game and I absolutely loved the sport. Nowadays I am a big fan of the sport and recently I bought myself some golf clubs. I have always been a fan of Tiger (kinda cliché), but more recently I have become a fan of Rory!

My golf bag now has some Titleist Tour Model Irons, MacGregors DX Pyramid Driver, 3 and 5 wood, a Wilson putter, and I bought some other better drivers at ShopGoodwill: Titleist 975j and Taylormade Burner Supersteel. Some oldies, but I guess they are right for starting up. I obviously do not have a Handicap, since I have always been a beginner. I took some lessons when I was 8 years old, but nowadays it is like starting over again. Having bought the golf clubs, I am closer to becoming a golfer (or maybe not!) 

Hope to share experiences and opinions with you!

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
