New posture update !!! Well after a week of reading up, taking in all the above advice, watching you tube clips and wafting clubs around the home and office with my back straight I can confirm things are a tad different after tonights range visit :) (no clips im afraid) Firstly the straight...

It's not just you :D I dont think I have ever come across a forum that make newcomers as welcome as this site, Golf or otherwise.. and this post proves it.. :) As a newbie myself (to Golf as well as this forum) I would like to thank the regular posters on here for all the help and advice...

I only started playing last year myself and weirdly my Driver is the only club I'm confident will go straight'ish of the tee, started using it as soon as i had brought it after xmas this year, nothing better for the start of a round getting a nice drive off the tee :cool: Have fun and dont try...

I was shocked by my slack posture to, Gobbing in a hole is not far wrong :) First time I've ever seen myself swing a club, a bit weird to see (I've watched it over and over since last Thursday for some strange reason??) but at least I now have some things to work on over the coming months...

Ooops forgot to mention in the post, My main problem is distance, when swinging at half power (as in clips) I'm making OK ball contact and managing to hit it straight'ish, But any attempt to release more power in my swing results in all manor of hook and slice horror's. Just wondered if my...

Evening all, Been playing a little over the last year or so. Not managed to break 120 yet but getting there and improving every round. Would love any feedback, help or pointers on my swing, I know its bad (bendy legs) but we all have to start somewhere I guess :o Due to wifes recent career...

Guess your right, I have only played 6 full rounds and in my short golfing history ( all different course's ) but have played the same 9 hole course quite a bit over the last two years, and the banter between my 3 golfing mate is always better when we re-visit the 9 hole course as we continually...

Good thread this, was going to ask similar question myself, although only just managing to break 120 so still work to be done :-) to add, if I may. Does anyone find themselves getting bored playing the same course week in week out, I have a lovely club on my doorstep and aspire to become a...

For what its worth I grew up in Stapleford :D Never called it Stableford though! :p

Hi There, Welcome along from another newish forumer. Im in a similar boat to you, playing experience wise !! My wife brought me a cheap driver for xmas this year (Fila Ti driver from TK max) and my first thought was the same as yours, however ive just been using it at half swing and getting...

There all pretty straight up guys (even though there all from Derby) Oh and I was keeping score :rolleyes: Roll on next outing ! Jamie

played my local 9 hole course this morning, with 3 guys from work, Two of them quite experienced and have always beaten me (over the last 18 months I've been playing) And a complete novice, the office banter all week has been of me losing not only to them as normall, but also to the newcomer...

Nice post Chris, My Lads nearly 6 and has his own set of junior clubs, hes only been chipping up and down the garden but hes chomping at the bit to come with me to the range. Problem is they are just a touch to big for him at the mo, but worst of all they feel great for me... !! Make take them...

Hi Mate, Welcome along :cool: Jamie
