mmoore031908 4 Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 How long have you been playing golf? I played in high school 12 years ago and was a 6.5 handicap. I just started playing again this summer and have started keeping my scores again and i am currently at a 12 handicap. What do you love about golf? I love the environment of it. I usually play with guys that want to cut up and have a good time. Its fun to be around them and its even more fun to play golf while doing it. What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies? I have used MyGolfSpy for several reviews in the past and never joined. I recently looked a couple reviews and decided I should join. As far as I know I do not know any other Spies. Where are you from? What is your home course? I am from Henderson, NC. My home course is Kerr Lake Country Club What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? I would say the best things are we don't get huge amounts of rain so there are definitely more good days to play golf than bad. Probably the worst is the summers. The humidity is terrible. What do you do for a living? I am an IT Specialist for the federal government. How’d you pick your user name? I signed in through Gmail so it used my Gmail username. I picked that username from my first initial and last name and the date I started dating my future wife. 2 Quote Adams Golf XTD stiff std length/std loft/std lie Cobra Golf F6+ stiff 9.5° Right-handed Henderson, NC 12 Handicap Link to post Share on other sites

Took a hiatus for a few years and have gotten back into it as of the beginning of 2020. My current handicap is a 9.7. What do you love about golf? I love being outdoors and love the challenge. Golf is different every time you play even if you always play the same course. Always a new challenge or a different lie to figure out. Even when it gets frustrating, I still walk off the course having enjoyed the weather and with something in mind to improve. What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies? I came across MGS looking for equipment reviews and have been addicted to it ever since. The detail provided here is the best available online. Where are you from? What is your home course? I am from Birmingham, Alabama. I grew up playing at the Country Club of Birmingham. Currently I play any public courses within an hour of my house. What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? The best thing is that there is an abundance of courses, the worst thing is that the nearest ones to me tend to be short and tight courses with A LOT of trees (on a bad day, lots of lost balls) What do you do for a living? I am an Operations Data Analyst for a software company in Birmingham How’d you pick your user name?
