I've been playing golf about 25 years. I gave up baseball after college and began to golf as a competitive outlet. My handicap is a 5.
I love the competition golf provides between friends and oneself.
I first learned of MyGolfSpy last year when somebody posted the golf ball study on Twitter. I read it and was hooked. I listen to the No Putts Given podcast and read everything they publish.
I live in Pierson Michigan and my home course is Pilgrim's Run. I don't have a membership, but I work as a starter and marshal so I can play when they have open tee times.
The best things about Michigan golf: picturesque landscapes, dead and dormant grass turning to a lush green, and the passion golfers have for the game. The worst thing: 6 month season!
I teach 7th grade mathematics for another 5 years. Plan is to retire in 5, get my Personal trainer certification and give lessons in the afternoon/evening and golf in the morning!
My username is my email, but it started out as a joke. When I quit playing baseball and started golf, I wasn't very good. My score was usually in the 110's. After maybe our third or fourth time playing, my buddy said, "You certainly aren't a golfphenom!" I created a new email address and have been using it ever since.
