TESTERS WANTED! ×

Please allow me to introduce myself


Recommended Posts

I'm Eric and I've been golfing on and off for about 25 years. The last 15 have been trying as I've had 12 spinal surgeries to input various implements to keep me upright. But Humpty is back together again and trying to play better than my 19 hdcp for 2017.

 

I was also a member of the PBA Tour for 4 years during the mid 1990's. Believe it or not, bowling helps with reading greens, especially when the ball bowled curves. A lot of geometry and physics involved - I love it.

What's in the bag:

Driver Taylormade R15, 3W Callaway RazrFit Extreme, 5W - Cobra Fly Z XL, Heat II Single Length Irons 4-AW, SW, LW

What's on my feet: Squarz/Under Armour Charged Draw 2

Bag Boy Quad XL Push Cart w/Bag Boy CB15 bag

Where I play:  Baja Country Club - Ensenada, Baja Califorinia, Mexico/Bajamar Oceanfront Golf Resort, Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico

Thanks all for the warm welcome. I like one user's name of Fairhaven. I grew up not far from there in Massachusetts in a little village of Onset in the Town of Wareham. Lived there till ''84 then I went into the US Army (Infantry). Served from '84-'88. Got tired of shoveling snow and moved to Virginia.
