Just starting out...


Recommended Posts

Hello... I'm Ray... I'm 39 years old and just starting out as a golfer... Played a couple times in my teens with my Dad and Stepfather but not anything consistant, maybe 10 times, 20 years ago. Just started with my buddies from work. Using a Taylormade Burner HT Driver, Top Flite 5 wood, 3 and 4 hybrid, Nike SQ Machspeed irons(4i-AW), and Odyssey DFX 1100 putter. My handicap is 17.8. Got better pretty fast because I now "have the sickness" and go 4 times a week.20151224_203624.jpeg

Welcome. If I could go back in time to when I was starting out I would take a lot of lessons to build a textbook swing out the gate. Mine is effective, but ugly as sh$7, and prone to error. We can all relate to getting the “bug”.
