Hey Hey MGS Spies,

How long have you been playing golf? Pops bought me my first set in 1995 but I only recently started playing seriously in June of 2022. What’s your handicap or normal score? Down to a 21... Starting to finally scare 88/89 on the good days; Normally shoot high 90s

What do you love about golf? My daughter was diagnosed with a rare genetic condition in November of 2021 and shortly after the diagnosis, around March 2022, my buddies took me out for a round to try and get my mind off everything and, for the first time in months, I was able to truly clear my head of all the heaviness and, for the next 4+ hours, I was only worried about my next shank... Right or Wrong, I have been chasing that "high" ever since. I've learned to love the challenge of the game, and the game of life.  

What brings you to MyGolfSpy? I've become a golf tech nerd and truly enjoy learning all the intricacies of the game & equipment. Do you already know any other Spies? Not yet but looking forward to it!

Where are you from? Born and raised in South Orange County, California. What is your home course? San Juan Hills Golf Club, where the swallows flock

What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? Worse = Laughable Green Fees & Pace of Play; Best = Playing Year Round

What do you do for a living? Business Development for a Lighting Technology Company

How’d you pick your user name? it's a spin-off of my last name

Cheers, and play well!

Hi all, 

I have been playing golf since I was 13, and off and on for the last 15 years. I will typically shoot anywhere between 79-85. My biggest struggle has always been off the tee, but it’s slowly getting better. 
 

I love the challenge of golf, and the couple shots a round that you think about non-stop til you get back out on the course.

I have been following MGS for a long time, and have always appreciated the data, reviews, and other golfers real life experiences. With so many options to choose from, and claims that don’t always translate to real life, I’ve valued what MGS does more and more, and thought it’s time to join the forums and share my experiences as well

I am from Utah originally, but moved down to Gilbert/Mesa Arizona and absolutely love the ability to golf all year long. My home course is Western Skies.

The best part about my region is year long golf, the worst? Summers are brutal, but even on the worst days, a night range session is always an option.

Hi all! I’m from Southern California.
I joined MGS to dive deeper into the golf community.

I’ve been playing golf casually since I was a kid and recently picked back up as a hobby a few years ago. Currently playing off a 3.2 handicap

I don’t really know any MSG member but I’m excited to meet you guys.

I’m from Thousand Oaks, CA and current home course is Tierra Rejada golf club

There’s some beautiful golf courses in the area but the drawback are high prices and limited options / accessibility.

I work as a strength and conditioning coach

How long have you been playing golf? What’s your handicap or normal score? - Been playing seriously for about a year and a half. Played during college some but that was more about the beers than the shots. Gotten my HCP down to about a 12, but will occasionally break into the 70s. 

What do you love about golf? - The community. I've always been a social person, but as I got older it became harder and harder to find thing to do with buddies that kept some friendly competition. I've made tons a great new friends since starting to play again.

What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies? - Long time listener, first time caller. Love the reviews, its hard to find unbiased opinions with the number of paid endorsements out there on social media these days so to have a true, quality resource is extremely helpful

Where are you from? What is your home course?  - Phoenix AZ - Lookout Mountain Golf Club 

What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? - Quality and number of courses for sure. The list of "must plays" is near endless but peak season pricing makes some of these courses unattainable to play unless its 110*+ out which brings its own challenges but nothing a cold beer and some ice in the hat wont fix. 

What do you do for a living? - Real Estate/Sales

How’d you pick your user name? - Its my Instagram handle but is a nod to the great Darrelle Revis and RevisIsland

[RunReno]

1. How long have you been playing golf? What’s your handicap or normal score? 
I’ve played golf for about 5 years. I’m currently a 16 handicap.  

2. What do you love about golf?  

I love the technical side of golf. I love the physics, studying the technique and trying to apply those to my own game.  I love dada and metrics to the point where it starts to impede my game.  I enjoy how golf is a sport that can be done here at my home course but also adds such a highlight to any vacation by exploring new courses around the world. 

3. What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies? I came across MGS about a year ago on instagram and really appreciate their dedication to providing honest and unbiased content.   I don’t think I know any other MGS people here, but it’s a small world so perhaps there are some familiar faces and I just don’t know it yet!

4. Where are you from? What is your home course?

 I’m from Oregon originally but have lived in Reno, Nevada for nearly a decade.   My home course is Somersett Golf and Country Club. 

5. What are the best and worst things about golf in your region?

  The best part about golf here is 300 days of sunshine.  No rainy or wet rounds of golf!  The worst part is that we do get a fair amount of snow and the course is closed several months each year.  

6. What do you do for a living?

I am a proud husband, father and an anesthesiologist! 

7. How’d you pick your user name?

It’s just my first and last name shortened :).

[RAD]

Hello Everyone!

I'm RAD and new to the forums. I recently joined a golf club and I'm playing in my first tournament this weekend. I love golf and the competition/friendships it brings. Always looking to practice or get out on the course.

How long have you been playing golf? What’s your handicap or normal score? I played a bit when I was younger, mostly with my dad. Never got into it. I played maybe once or twice a year in my 20s. Got addicted in my 30s, but played off and on. Really got serious about it 6 years ago, and I'm trying to get better. Handicap is 19.6.

What do you love about golf? I love the mental aspect. One good shot can make you forget 50 bad ones. I feel golf is a sport where you can really learn something new each round. I'm always open to tricks/tips of the trade. 

What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies? MGS flooded my IG with their stories and reviews. I relied on them for EVERYTHING, when it came to making purchases. Now that I'm in a golf club, I find myself wanting to talk golf everyday. I do not know any other spies, this is my first forum.

Where are you from? What is your home course? I'm from Los Angeles, California, and I would consider The Navy Golf course in Cypress, CA, my home course. 

What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? The best thing about my region would be GOLF YEAR ROUND. The weather is almost perfect. It doesn't rain in Southern California. One of the worst things is trying to get a tee time. It's way too difficult to get out and play on a spur of the moment.

What do you do for a living? I'm a Senior Project Manager for a Global Marketing Research Firm.

How’d you pick your user name? I just go by RAD. It's my initials.

What's in the bag?

Do you typically play the Cruiser or Destroyer at the Navy course?  I've only played Destroyer once but go to the Cruiser every now and then. 

[TommyTwoShot]

Hello Spies, TommyTwoShot here, thrilled to be joining the MyGolfSpy community and looking forward to engaging in some exciting golf topics. 

I've been playing golf off and on for years, but really ramped up my game during the pandemic when options for "outdoor activities" were limited. You'll regularly find me at Rancho Park in West LA or at Penmar in Venice Beach trying to conquer my game. I've been grinding down from a 20+ handicap and have started serious training a few months ago. 

I've always found golf to be more than just a game. The spirituality, focus, the precision, and the challenge – each round and shot teaches you something new about yourself. I enjoy praying while I play.

I stumbled upon MyGolfSpy while looking for insights on new gear and course strategies. I'm a tech nerd at heart (I work in high technology and robotics), so I appreciate in-depth, data-driven discussions. I don't personally know any Spies yet, but I'm looking forward to meeting you all!

The best thing about golfing in Southern California is the weather. We're spoilt with sunny, golf-friendly days all year round. The worst is probably the pace of play; it can get busy, and rounds can take longer than they should.

"TommyTwoShot" comes from a habit of always having two golf balls in my pocket: one for play and one for luck (or a provisional). 

Let's hit the green and start spying!

1.How long have you been playing golf? What’s your handicap or normal score?

- While first playing in my teens (1964-19700, I started playing more regularly in the mid-1980s.  My handicap is 12.1

2.What do you love about golf?

- Just enjoying the scenery, being outside and, in some cases, the quiet and solitude.

3.  What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies?

- Enjoy the equipment reviews.  Don't know other Spies.

4.  Where are you from? What is your home course?  

- Originally from Kansas City, and now live in Tucson, AZ.  Home course is Tucson Country Club.

5.  What are the best and worst things about golf in your region?

-  Lots of good golf courses and the ability to play yar-round golf, are the best things. My wife and I play 18 holes, walk and carry our clubs in around 3 hours.  The pace of play is really good on our home course.  On the negative side, and this applies everywhere, is the overall cost of equipment (clubs, shoes, balls, etc)

6.  What do you do for a living?

- Nothing, I'm retired.  And ,.. I run out of time to do all the nothing I plan to do!

7.  How’d you pick your user name?

Hello, fellow golf enthusiasts! I'm from the Central Valley CA. I started playing golf with my dad and grandpa when I was about 6; played competitively through high school and 1 year in college. After that I took about a 10 year hiatus to establish my career and do other adult things. I recently got back into the game through coaching at a local private school and have gotten my index back down to a 5. Hoping to get closer to a 2-3.

Currently I play with with Apex 21 irons, Callaway Paradigm hybrids & 3HL fairway wood and a Maverick driver. I still use my Scotty Cameron from college.

3. What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies? Truthfully, testing.

4. Where are you from? What is your home course? AZ currently though life has taken me to various parts of the country. My favorite course is probably South Mountain in Utah or The Reserve at Spanos Park in Ca.

5. What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? The best thing is that there are nothing but golf courses but the tradeoff is the heat in summer...oppressive doesn't even begin to tell the story.

How long have you been playing golf? I have been playing as long as i can remember. My grandpa growing up had a net hung in his garage where i would go hit balls anytime we went to visit grandma. Been playing frequently since 2005.
 

What’s your handicap or normal score? 2.4

What do you love about golf? Golf is my escape. I love that I can get on the course and forget what’s happening in the world, my job and life. It’s a great release to just enjoy Mother Nature and know that how good I am is solely up to me. 

What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies? I’ve heard of and seen my golf spy on Twitter but never followed. I’ve found myself having questions recently I think others could help with. I also am super interested in being a tester.

Where are you from? What is your home course? I live in Lehi, Utah. Home course would be fox hollow. 

What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? The best thing about golf in Utah the variety of courses you can play. From links style to regular to mountain courses we have them all. There are two worst things. Snow and really crappy bunkers. We might have four courses that have decent sand outside of private courses. 

What do you do for a living? I work as the overnight valet at marriott in salt lake. 

How’d you pick your user name? I am a huge BYU football fan. My name is usually spelled with a C but my parents spelled my name with a K so instead of gocougs I use gokougs!

Hi All,

I've been playing 18 months and do not yet have an official handicap, but I typically score 97-93. Was recently issued a GHIN number so now I can track my rounds electronically rather than keeping all of my scorecards.

I love the constant battle to stay balanced (physically and emotionally).

MyGolfSpy is one of the few informational sites that is independent and provides thorough reviews of all things golf-related. I do not know anyone else IRL that is a loyal fan of MGS.

Fresno, CA - Riverside is where is play most of my golf.

Best thing about golf is it is mostly year round (for me). Worst thing is the courses in the area are not in great shape compared to others in N CA and SoCal.

My profession is project management and I've been in the field for 15 years.

My name is a nickname my family calls me.

Welcome!  I'm in Huntington Beach as well.  I haven't made it out to the Costa Mesa Country Club courses yet but I hear great things about them.  I usually go to Meadowlark since it's fairly easy to hop on in the early morning.

Hey Steve,

Thanks for the welcome, nice to see another HB member here. I like Meadowlark, however in my opinion, CMCC has more to offer, more challenging holes, the greens are no joke and it is a better value. I live on that side of HB so it's very close.

I'm in the CMSGA (50yr + group) we play there the first and third Thursday. If you can play Thursdays you might want to look the group up and jump in.
