Hi everyone! Newbie here from East TX, just getting back into Golf after taking a long time off to focus on another hobby. I was cleaning out my attic, and found my old Titleist irons, and thought "I'll just donate them, but before I do that, I'll go to the range." I Hadn't swung a club in 15 years, but one hit in I thought, "huh, I forgot I used to love golf." So, here I am trying to catch up on things and learn as much as I can. 

Welcome to MGS!  Hopefully being here will help to rekindle that old golf flame!

Well, decided to try the kool-aid after a year of reading many forum topics that have been posted in the MGS forum.

I'm a Civil Engineer by trade, don't cast judgement on me too hard yet based solely on that, and due to that I've always been more of a critical-numbers focused person when it comes to anything I'm interested in or pursuing as a hobby. After seeing many other members posting responses and forum questions that were damn near exactly similar to what I'd put myself, figured I might just have found the best place for me to fit in on a forum without always sounding like the critical *sshole that's just focused more on actual info & not just hype'd info.

I'm looking forward to jumping in on topic discussions and becoming a continual active member here though, and looking forward to some spirited discussions and hopefully expanding my knowledge & skills in the game of Golf along the way.

Been a huge fan and follower of MyGolfSpy for years...not sure what took me so long to join! Well actually, I do know...Sub70, which I am a huge fan of is looking for testers for their fairway woods and I am more than intrigued. Most of my bag consists of Sub70, but my 3 wood along with a couple others are Callaway's and a Scotty.

My 3 wood which is my oldest and one of my favorites is an EPIC flash and I really want to see how the Sub70 matches up!

 

Cheers everyone!

Thanks for having me, I love to experiment with the game and try the new ideas out there. I did 1 length irons for a while and found it to be really interesting, but switched back to standard when I discovered another unique company - Sub70. I love their products and customer service. Can't wait to see what they do with a driver coming out this year. I've been loyal to Callaway with Drivers, so it'll be interesting to see if they can knock out a Callaway Driver. That Triple Diamond Max driver they have looks pretty interesting. I'm loving my newest additions, the Edison Wedges. I can't believe more companies aren't making wedges like them.
