Golf has had some great positive impacts on my life. It has helped my relationship with my father as he is also an avid golfer. Now as I am in middle age and he is in his senior years it has really helped us bond as we play whenever we get to see each other. The desire to improve my golf game has also motivated me to diet and exercise regularly to maximize my potential on the course.

Thanks for the feedback. I guess the part I struggle the most with is the fact that I have this type of control with my irons, but not with the Driver. Trying to understand why I struggle so much with that club only.

I have two misses with my driver and I was wondering if they could be related despite being very different misses. I hit about 50 % of fairways and driver is my most inconsistent club. My misses are either a slice or a pull. Has anyone else struggled with something similar and know what causes it?

I’m in south OC now, but was in IV for 4 years. I’ve heard San Diego has a great resident golfer program.

Hey everyone, have seen a few posts from here over the years and enjoyed them, thought I'd finally setup an account. The first time I swung a golf club I was 10 years old. My dad had a spot in our apartment where he would hit wiffel balls off the carpet into a curtain. I remember immediately loving the feel of a golf swing and in particular the sound the club made when it grazed the carpet just right. I would play for hours in our improvised hitting bay and, although I didn't play anything resembling actual golf until much later in life, I consider that the genesis of my obsession with this great game. I played the game casually for 10 years, then a few years ago began taking it more seriously and am now a certifiable golf nut. I think I'll fit in nicely here.
