davidy48 Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Just to introduce myself, I'm david, 70 year old Brit expat been living in Rotterdam since 1991 and member of a lovely and difficult local club since 1997. Current handicap 10.5 and slowly inching up with the course of time. Bit of a golfing nerd and love experimenting with non-mainstream techniques - have tried Moe Norman and even Mindy Blake styles in the past before settling on a kind of S&T Lite. Currently playing about with sidesaddle putting which I'm convinced ought to be the best method but in practice doesn't always seem to work 100%....

Kenny B Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Welcome David... from a 71-year old in the USA Pacific Northwest! Glad you joined us. I spent a week in The Netherlands in 1978; beautiful country! I did the Moe Norman swing for the past 10 years, giving it up in April in search of more distance. It did fix my slice, but I have moved on now. “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be interesting to leave how golf or courses differ from the UK or US. Sent from my iPad using MyGolfSpy The courses are the same. Differences are more in golf culture ( for instance lots more emphasis on Stableford ) and a more inclusive approach which encourages people to play even if they aren't actually any good - for instance handicaps of 54 are permitted. On the other hand complete beginners are not allowed to play until their club pro is satisfied they have a minimum acceptable standard of play and etiquette. Also emphasis on choosing tees which are appropriate for your standard - I often play with friends who don't hit it very far from what used to be called the ladies tees.
