Hello from the cold in Canada although not getting as much snow as the East Coast of the USA!

I am retired and golf about 5 times a week :rolleyes: and my handicap fluctuates between 9 - 12 over the summer. Lots of good games, lots of poor games. At 69 I have lost a lot of distance and trying to get that back no doubt adds to more poor games than anything else. I have played Ping irons for 30 years Eye 2, ISIK, I10, G10 (hated the look), I15, and I25s. Late last year I went to AP1s with steelfibre shafts that I will start the season with - loved my last game with them. Drivers are drivers to me and have tried most with not a lot of discrepancy with the top brands TM, Titleist, Callaway. I currently have a 913D, V1, and a new GBB 13.5* that I will try this summer. I have to either chip and put well or pitch well to keep the score down so wedges are important to me. Mainly vokeys - usually 54* and 58* but sometimes throw in a 46* and 50* if the weather is hot and lots of run. The wedges I own on top of the vokeys include Ping 50*, Mizuno MP 5 54* and 58*, I 3 lobs, etc, etc. I hate getting rid of any! I would love to try the new Ping wedges - maybe I will love them.

Hello from Duluth MN. I'm a member at Ridgeview CC here in Duluth. Shorter golf season than most of the country so I'm not a fair weather golfer. I split my free time between golf and fly fishing.

 

Looks like I posted this in the wrong spot...oops.

Got a rules question. Can you abandon a ball visible in a hazard and hit a new one after one stroke penalty like JT just did?

Sorry, can't answer that .. though I believe there is a change about this in the "new" rules .. but note there is a separate "Rules" sub-forum where you could post these questions.

Hey all. Jason here. Happy to have found this forum. I'm an equipment guy back from my Golfsmith days starting in '96. But I was out of the game for a very, very long time. Started caddying a couple of years ago and I'm glad to be back around the game full time. A couple of weeks ago I actually even started practicing again!

Goodmorning from Alabama. I gave up golf 14 year's ago after getting the shanks. Decided to take a few lessons and start playing again. Played my first round this week and glad to say the shanks are gone. Shot a 95.hope to be in the 80's soon. Need to work on short game. Feels good to be on the course again. Oh I'm 63 and retired so have plenty of time to practice

Hey everyone, I'm Ron from Los Angeles. I only started playing golf about 1 1/2 years ago after some buddies roped me into playing in a tournament for charity. I probably shot 120+ that day but I had a blast. The one or two good shots I hit that day got me wanting more. I got bit by the golf bug big time! So now I try to play 2-4 rounds a month (all year round...the advantages of living in LA) and hit the range about once a week. It took me awhile to break 100 but now I hit in the mid to high 80s pretty regularly. Great forum community here and I'm glad to be a part of it.

I'm Al. I live and mostly play my golf in Illinois but enjoy yearly golf trips around the country. I just started played 6 years ago. I'm mostly a good times golfer but finally started to see some improvement in my game last year. I'm looking to break 90 without having to add an * next to my score this golf season.

😊 I feel like a 36+ handicapper when I am online 😊.   If I see a window pop up I guess I just start typing😊.  Never did see how to add my picture..... didn’t see the option on “profile”, so ..... ?

Very interested in the rainwear testing since I golf 12 months/year in Washington State, and would like to purchase good rainwear from a USA company.   Galvin Greens have been terrific, and many members at my club have the same.   None of the other major brands have performed as well as GG to date for our members yet.

Hello,

I've been a member for a while , but never got around to introducing myself. I hope to be more active in the future. I recently retired from the Air Force after 21 years of service to this great nation. I'm originally from Arkansas, but currently reside in ABQ, NM and work as a Mechanical Estimator. I started playing golf in 2001 while stationed in Japan, but I have not progressed as quickly as I would like to have. My current handicap is a 19, but my lowest is a 13. My lowest 18-hole score is an 82, while my lowest 9-hole score is a 36. I love that this game is always challenging, yet very enjoyable. I first heard about MyGolfSpy through a "Be Better Golf" video on Youtube, and as popular as MyGolfSpy seems to be, it seems that anyone I talk to about it has never heard of it. I typically play a few different courses, but have recently joined a club for handicap and tournament purposes only...University of New Mexico Championship Course. There is typically great golfing weather in NM, but there is a monsoon season and it is usually windy here.

Welcome from the Pacific Northwest!  Glad you found us, and thank you for your service!!

I retired 4 years ago, and I used to spend a lot of time at Kirkland AFB working at the DOE training facility.  I've played about every golf course in ABQ.  It was so easy to play the base course after work, because I drove right by it heading back to the hotel.

I love UNM South.  Great course!  A buddy of mine used to be a member there, but he recently moved over to Sandia GC; I think because his girlfriend was the cart girl.  lol

Welcome from the Pacific Northwest!  Glad you found us, and thank you for your service!!

I retired 4 years ago, and I used to spend a lot of time at Kirkland AFB working at the DOE training facility.  I've played about every golf course in ABQ.  It was so easy to play the base course after work, because I drove right by it heading back to the hotel.

Thank you for your service as well. If you ever find yourself down this way PM me and maybe we can play a round together.
