TESTERS WANTED! ×

Hello, Hola, Guten Tag, Ciao, Zdras Tvuy Te, Bon Dia from Maryalnd


Recommended Posts

Hey All:

  Just realized that I never properly introduced myself.  MDGolfHacker from Maryland.  I've been golfing for about 14 years and have met many a friends along this golf journey.  I've been as low as a 7.9 index but a wife and two kids put a serious hurting on the practice and playtime, so now I'm now up to a 16 ish index.  I am a recovering club addict. :D  Fed the habit by attending every demo day in the state for a few yeas to try out the clubs that would eventually find it's way into the bag.  I'm down to just two sets - my current gamer in my signature and a backup set down in Fl for when I visit the inlaws (Silver Scott blades, FT-5 driver, Cleveland TI 3W, TM Wedges and a Ping Tess putter).  Looking to upgrade pretty much everything in the bag this year so I'll be interested in reading the reviews on this site.  Other than that, I hope to contribute to this site and help it grow.

Hacker, its great to see you here.    Carolina, you and I always seem to find a way to find each other on the golf forums.    

 

To those reading this thread;  Hacker, Carolina and I have been close golfing buds for over I guess at least ten years now.  We became friends through the old Golf Channel forum.   Hacker use to play a lot more with us until he decided it was time to reproduce.  Both are good friends and great people.

Wahoo...there's an old saying something to the affect, that people will come and go throughout your life, but friends are there to stay.  You two are examples of that being a fact!

Thanks!  I know...I've been saying that I was going to upgrade those irons for the last 3 years and it just wasn't meant to be.  This year will be different...I need me some shiny new clubs in the bag :D

Ah...the good old Golf Channel Forum days....Didn't we have something like 13K in posts over the span of 6 months alone ? I know our thread was probably the cause of TGC forums slowing down and crashing, LOL.  Good old days.  I'm done reproducing and raring to dropping the Handicap,  :D   Good to hear from you again TheWahoo!

Thanks!  I work in DC but live in the Maryland near NSA and Ft. Meade...  Lots of changes in Germantown and Bethesda.  Sadly I-495 still has as many pot-bunkers as before, and more of them as they added more highways to the area, ha ha ha...

The growth has been absolutely crazy.  Even with the housing bust, people were still buying around the DC, VA and MD.  As I said, lot of changes... :D

Welcome from the Pacific Northwest!  Glad you joined us Hacker.  I lived in Bethesda and worked in Germantown many years ago, but that was before I played golf.  

Up until a year ago I worked in Rockville, so pretty much between your two locations.  Before that well, I was all around the Beltway, litteraly, Tysons Corner, Alexandria, Annapolis, BWI and Owings Mills.   Those are just where I worked, I have lived in Columbia for 21 years. 

 

Lived in Glen Echo my senior year of college - also spent a year living in Reston. Don't recognize the place whenever I go back to visit.

I don't know how long it's been since you've been back, but if it's more than 2 or 3 years, you wouldn't believe what they have done in Reston.  In addition about 1020 new office buildings they have built a metro extending all the way to Dulles.   With one of the major stops in Reston, I believe the Reston stop is open, the Dulles part is still under construction. 

 

If either of you are ever back in area, make sure and let one of us know, we'd love to get together.   My company manages Reston National Golf Club.   So I might know somebody :)
