Long-time reader, first time poster, so here goes... How long have you been playing golf? What’s your handicap or normal score? I've been playing golf for nearly 40 years, but only started playing seriously when I retired in 2008. Currently at a 15.4, playing from the blue tees. Was a 12.7 in 2019, the pandemic and the resulting closure of putting and chipping practice areas killed my short game. What do you love about golf? The complexity of the game. Playing a great round despite not not hitting the ball well. Playing a phenomenal round when hitting the ball well. Dropping a 60 foot putt to save par. What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies? The thorough and comprehensive equipment reviews. You guys have a different approach towards testing equipment and you stay engaged with the commenters with each review. Good job there. Do I know any other Spies? Nope, afraid not. Perhaps in the future. Where are you from? What is your home course? Los Angeles. I play the LA City courses, primarily Rancho and Griffith Park with occasional rounds at the Long Beach city courses, Rio Hondo, Industry Hills, Lakewood, Mile Square, and other Orange, Ventura, San Bernardino, and Riverside county courses. Sometime in the hopefully not to distant future, I'll be calling Las Vegas home. What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? The difficulty in getting tee times, especially during and post-pandemic. The poor course conditions at various municipal courses. And having to deal with urban freeway traffic either getting to or coming from golf courses. There have been way too many times I've missed tee times because the freeway was shut down because of an accident. What do you do for a living? I'm retired. Working was something I used to do a lifetime ago. How’d you pick your user name? It's one of the many names I've used in the past for fantasy sports leagues.
