Greetings From Tampa FL


Recommended Posts

Good Afternoon All,

 

Rafael Figueroa here.  Joined a couple of months ago and have been doing some extensive reading for educational purposes, this site has helped me a ton, referred by a friend.

 

US Navy Chief currently stationed at Macdill AFB in FL.  Played at a Veteran's association tournament in 2013 and have been hooked on Golf ever since.  From then through 2014 I would just go out and drink and have a blast with friends but started taking it seriously in 2015.  Played baseball my whole life so I think that has helped in my playing skills from the beginning.  Have never taken lessons (not opposed to it), just haven't gotten around to it with deployments and things.

 

I do not keep an official handicap but I do log my rounds through The Grint and I'm about a 15 right now.

I was in Tampa for the first time back in January. Tried to find some warmth away from the rain in Seattle. Instead found the coldest week in Florida history or something silly like that.

Welcome to MGS from Seattle!

Riverview and Brandon is where about 80% of the military folks that serve at Macdill live, way more affordable homes out there compared to south Tampa.

 

Really growing economy out there.

It's amazing how much it has grown in the last 20 years since We originally moved there. All of the cow pastures are apartment complexes or housing developments.

 

Great areas for families though for sure.
