I started playing when I was 24 after coming back from Iraq in 2004. I bought a set of Ping I3+ and a copy of "Golf For Dummies". I think it was by Gary McCord. Pretty funny now that I think back on it. Anyways, I was determined to learn and read the book religiously and went to the range almost everyday for about 4 months before I decided I was ready to try the course. Anyways, I was able to break 100 in about a month and lingered around the mid to upper 90s for the next few months and finally decided to get a package of 5 lessons. Had a total swing makeover...hardest thing was getting rid of my reverse pivot. After 2 lessons within a month I was able to consistently break 90. Fast forward...now I have kids and for the past 4-5 years I have averaged 1 round of golf a year. This April after not swinging a club in almost 2 years I found some time to work on my swing again at the range once a week. I was determined to break 100 which is my goal every year when I get to play that one round. Anyways, I shot a 91 in July and look forward to break 90 come September when I plan to play every weekend. Although I haven't played much I have learned much about the golf swing from this site and find myself practicing my form at home every now and then. This site has been a great resource.
