  1. I have a cousin who is a PGA pro and will get my daughter some lessons in the future if she continues to show interest. Really I just want her to be able to enjoy what she can and start to love it.
  2. This is awesome. I will look into the PGA Jr. League when she gets a lot older.
  3. I completeley agree. I don't want her to dislike it. She enjoys playing around with me and I think she would like to ride in the cart for 9 maybe. I would be willing to abandon the round if she got sick of it. She does have a plastic putter she loves to play with. Anytime I ahve my cklubs out she is trying to get balls and a club to swing. I figure my wife can't agrue too much if I am spending quality dad time bringing my daughter to the course. EDIT: I can't spell
  4. My daughter is almost 3 and always asks to play golf with me. When I hit into the net in the back yard she chases balls and has tried to hit a few with my clubs. I'm thinking about getting her a kids set and letting her ride along on the course with me and maybe hit a few. How young is too young to bring your kid? I would only bring her to a par 3 course that is very kid friendly. For those of you that started your kid early, how did you do it?
  5. Yea he could of even just been having a bad weekend or day. Truthfully I do not wish anything bad on anyone. I can only imagine how it would feel being 20 years old with those expectations.
  6. Rory may have changed since then, this was 7 years ago. Again my interaction was brief but I always feel you can tell a lot about people by how they treat waitstaff, housekeepers, etc...
  7. I worked at a restauarnt in a hotel a few years back. We had a PGA tour in town and a lot of the players ate in our restaurant. Jordan won the tournamanet and celebrated in the Private Dining Room, he was such a nice guy, treated all the servers well and even signed a few autographs. He has been one of my favorite players since. couldn't ask for a nicer guy. Rory on the other hand... I hope his next losing streak is twice as long as his previous one.

  9. He was. I think he was in the 1st or second group.
  10. Maybe see if you can get a good deal on another one and use the parts for yours? Or after 20 years it may be time to retire your old putter.
  11. This is a great tool. I had to bookmark it so i can easily find it again. Well done.
  12. This is an amazing idea. Has business been good so far?
  13. Do you have any that you are considering or have looked into at this point?
  14. I watched a great video on developing a practice schedule. I took this guys spreadsheet and adapted it to myself changing some things around to best suit me. I like his idea of creating a google spreadsheet so you can update while you are at the course. I also got an net for my birthday last week so i can pratice at home. I am thinking about developing another spread sheet that would be more focused on net practice for the days that I can't make it to the range. With a new born due any day I imagine I am going to be spending a lot of time in my basement. Does anyone ahve any good drills they like to do at home or in a net? Practice Schedule video
  15. Costco has their right handed putters and wedge set discounted currently. Not a huge discount but everything helps. Kirkland Signature 3 piece wedge set. Kirkland signature KS1 Putter - Right handed.
  16. Had a great day at the range today. Practice some drills I got from my coach which is helping to get rid of my slice and actually starting to get a slight draw. The best part was after the driving range I spent 2 hours practicing 20-30 yeard chip. The local course I go to was slow and only one other person was on the chipping/putting green while I was there. It helps in confidence if you don't ahve to worry about getting in someones way or shanking a ball while someone else is practicing.
  17. Thanks appreciate it. I know I need to fill in somewhere between my driver and 4 iron. I don’t hit the 4 well not always working on improving.
  18. I just started getting in to golf. I am missing Fairway woods or Hybrid clubs. What shoould I lookj for or what should I consider while searching for clubs? I am a vetrean and can get a pretty good discount on PXG and also 15% on Titleist I think. Thank you in advnace.
  19. Can I get a veteran badge? Disabled Veteran here served in the Marine Corps from 2002-2006. Iraq war veteran.
