Hello from a Newbie to the Forum

[Steve King]

Hello everyone

Just thought I'd say hello

I've been reading a few of the threads and thought what better way to kick off than start one, so here's a bit about my game

About two years ago I went for a lesson with our head pro and told him to be brutally honest with me as I wanted to get down to scratch....I played off 5 at the time.

And the great bloke he is: he told me to not worry about my swing, spend the winter months in the gym getting fit, losing weight and becoming more flexible.

Two years on - I never went to the gym, I'm still over weight (have a fun pack rather than a six pack) and now I play off 9

Maybe I'll go to the gym this year and get back to some better golf next year

Nice to meet you all

cheers
Steve

Welcome to the forum Steve.

You have hit a sore point with me there.
All the talk of goals has had me thinking and i have come to the realisation that if i want to get better than 6 then i need to hit the Gym, I have stalled at 6 this year and guess what.....I stopped going to the gym last winter.

Hey Brendy

Thanks very much!

I already like the humour (even spelled it right)

Hi Steve. Welcome. I'm still a newbie here and in the minority as a female golfer - this is a great forum and (I think) most of the banter is just banter

 

[brendy]

Bloggers, Spammers, advertisers and any other freeloading is pretty much leapt upon by our more cynical members like a fat kid chasing the cake.
Things have been pretty good recently since the software upgrade and fine tuning.
