Howdy y'all. New here! Started kind of playing last fall late (Montana)... so basically this spring. Have about 5 or 6 full rounds under my belt. Discovered I'm obsessed with it, research, data, reviews, new tech, all the things. Which is how I found this place. 

Currently bag a second hand Sim Max iron set, some piecemeal wedges, gave a DTC company (lazrus) a shot on a 3 wood and hybrid, a 3rd or 4th hand Cobra Fly-Z driver, and a cheap-o Wilson Harmonized putter from Amazon. 

Pushing to break 100 this summer. Almost did it last weekend (May 18th, 2024) with a 104. My back 9 fell apart a bit and had some 3 putts that should have been one (got lazy assuming I'd make it). Given my first round ever was a dishonest 146... I'd say the improvement is coming quicker than expected! 

Some personal details for those who care... born in NM, did the military thing for 13 years, moved to MT 4 years ago 2020. 38 going on 39 years old.

Happy golfing! Cheers!

Welcome!  Great place.

Hey everyone!  

 

 I joined because I am a local High School golf coach and stumbled across your site while looking for gift ideas for a tournament I have going on.  When I saw that you all have meetups, it made me join as I am always looking for people to get out on the course and play.

Hi from the sunny Lisbon, Portugal!

I'm a certified golf teacher and co-founder of https://screengolfers.com/ where you can find the best indoor golf venues near you in your city or state.

I mostly buy second-hand golf clubs (expect for the driver I got fitted for = Titleist TSR3 9.0, Mitsubishi Tensei Black X 75g, midsize grip Golf Pride velvet, half an inch shorter), but I really enjoy reading MyGolfSpy comparisons and playing around with different shafts, lie angles, heads, etc.

Thanks for welcoming me in the community.

Adrien
