Hello all! I'm a new forum member from the Finger Lakes region of NY. I'm 33 and have been playing since I was 10 or 11, but in the past few years have become serious about improving my game. My area is somewhat golf-poor--there is a public course in my town, but the nearest driving range/practice facility is over a half hour drive away, and most better courses lie an hour or more from my house...but yes, of course I make those drives! I have never been a member at any course, nor do I maintain an official handicap, but I do calculate an un-official one and currently play to 1.2 with average scores in the mid-high 70s.
I am a data analyst and care deeply about finding success and value in my kit. I was an early follower of YouTube golf back in 2012ish, spending countless hours watching the likes of Mark Crossfield, Me and My Golf, Rick Shiels, and Peter Finch. Their early instruction videos and club reviews led me to tinkering ways, and My Golf Spy content spoke to my interest in data-driven analysis of golf products. I used all these resources to inform used-club buying from Ebay for many years, but have turned over to fitting in the past couple years and am actually happy with my current set up!
Here's what's in the bag:
Driver: Titleist TSr2 9 degree at 8.25, Tensei 1K Black 75TX
FW: Titleist TSr2 at 14.25 degrees, Project X HZRDUS Black 5G 6.5 70g
Hybrid: Titleist TSi 3 at 21 degrees, Project X HZRDUS Black 6.5 90g
Irons: Srixon Z765 4-6 combo with Z785 7-PW, Nippon Modus 120S
Wedges: Vokey SM9 52.08, SM5 56.10, SM5 60.11
Putter: Sub70 Sycamore 005 Wide Blade
Ball: Maxfli Tour X or Wilson Triad
If anyone is golfing in/near the Finger Lakes, I often find myself playing alone and wouldn't mind meeting some other golfers! I'm looking forward to reading others' posts and hopefully participating in the forums.
