Finally took the plunge and moved from a lurker to a forum member of MyGolfSpy.  I really enjoy the product reviews and perspective from other players of all skill levels.

I've just recently started officially tracking my handicap after getting fitted for clubs.  Not a shocking discovery, but I need to get in more practice and more rounds. 

Open to any suggestions from others on other posts and threads to follow! 

Welcome to the forum!  A good place to start is TheGood Morning thread.  You can learn a lot about all the members that are worth anything… 🤣

We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.”

Welcome!  This place will hook you!  

You can always create a WITB for yourself and share what clubs you're playing.  Those always do well.

There are some great threads.  I always go to the "more" tab and go to "recent activity"

Welcome to the Forum! Plenty of information here all for the asking! Might want to give the "What/How did you Practice Today" thread a peek and see what various members are working on in their games.

Hello all, I’m from northwest Ohio where we’ve got the some of the flattest courses that drive right alongside corn fields. My brother has been heavily involved in this forum for the past few years, so I wanted to see what it was all about. I’m hoping to move from more of an occasional golfer to once a week golfer.  Work, family, friends, and other hobbies take precedence most of the time, yet I’m looking to get out onto the course more often. Grip it and rip it!

Just started playing after 25+ years away. Have a lower back injury that is odd. Put pressure on it and pain goes away. I thought maybe going back to hitting balls might help rehabilitate it. With the turn in golf might build up strength around spine. First day looks promising. Hit a few balls.

Bought four clubs.

When I did play before for man years. Obsessed. Finally visited one of the best teaching pro's in the country. He made me really good. Enjoyed golf for once. I played Hogan Tour Blades all the way to one iron. Loved to go out on range and nail that one iron. One after another, over and over, dropping on one spot.

I just need to get my swing back now. Was awful today. At least my mind remembers.

I came to the forums to learn. Many changes in golf now. I'm hoping people can fill me in.

I can't say I intend to play. Mostly intend to hit balls at range. Short game practice. Work on rehabilitating my lower back in primary intention right now. I admit. I couldn't turn worth a darn today. Got alot to gain back.

To be candid.... I would rather walk a field with a good Bird Dog, than to walk a golf course with people. Only problem is, I can't walk.
