I just ordered a new set of the Takomo 201 irons but typically use a midsized grip, so I would imagine a handful of iron grips will be the next buy. Also toying with upgrading the paradym driver to either the Qi10 max, 10k or the AI Smoke Max D as my worst club is my driver with a bad slice. Have enough trade in and credits to make it happen just not sure which direction to go.

I have played both Faulkwood and Chemung as well. Lots of good courses around here with all different sorts of looks and styles. I plan to expand down towards the metro parks soon, hopefully this year. Golf by myself mostly so less of an incentive to travel further.

How long have you been playing golf? What’s your handicap or normal score? I played with my dad as a kid and all the way through high school however that was 1-2 times a year. Never took it seriously on my own until much more recently, early 2023. Played a bit more in covid times, as a covid ICU nurse, it was really the only way to get outside at the time with people in a safe way. Starting out in early 2023 I was consistently 120-130 strokes a round, currently sitting mid to upper 90’s on most courses but occasionally slip into the low 100’s still. What do you love about golf? Honestly, the feeling of a good shot is like nothing else in the world but it’s more than that. It’s really only a challenge against yourself at the end of the day. Challenging yourself while outside in the crisp air alone or with friends with drinks or sober or whatever just has something indescribable about it. What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies? As I have progressed in my golf game and looked at clubs as well as options for balls etc I generally found research driven answers here which is (more than anything) how I like to determine club options. On top of that, I have been in a lot of hobby forums and always genuinely enjoyed the interactions with like minded people and to debate the more contested points in a friendly way. Where are you from? What is your home course? I am from Michigan, spent time all over the LP living between school and work, however currently splitting time between Grand Rapids and Brighton for work/home. Because I move around a lot I don’t really have a home course. If I had to chose I like Hartland Glen probably as my home course but I also haven’t played too many in this area yet. What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? I love winter in general in MI but it definitely puts a damper on golf. A lot of indoor golf communities have opened up around me though so I can keep golfing year round even if it’s not quite the real thing. I will say though, the best thing about MI is also the weather. Spring and Fall golf are some of the most peaceful times I’ve ever been out. Summer can get to be a bit much with heat and humidity but I’ll still be out there. What do you do for a living? I am a nurse, graduated straight into Covid and into an ICU. Been chaos ever since but I am currently working as a ICU travel nurse to save up for my wedding. How’d you pick your user name? Nex has been my online gamer tag and forum name in paintball, RC and the like for as long as I can remember. I think initially it stemmed from me being 10 and looking up cool Latin names for a gamer tag. Just kinda stuck.
