Tour Rookie
Good afternoon everyone, I've just signed up to the forum and hope to pass the time whilst I am in the office!!!
I'm 29 and first played golf last September, I've had about half a dozen lessons and spent plenty of time on the range and local courses over the winter.
I'm nowhere near a handicap at the minute but since the lessons I know what I need to be doing and although it isn't there yet I feel I have a half decent game in me.
Last time out I shot consecutice course pars and later hit my first course birdie (lets ignore the three consecutive 10s for now in the same round).
My biggest mistake so far is rushing into buying clubs. I bought a set from JJB Sports, 'Maxfli Patriot' they're OK, but since I added a proper club to the bag, a 60deg wedge (Titleist Vokey) I am desprate for new clubs already!
My driver is a waste of space and will be the next investment but probably not until the end of the year. I've hit a few drivers in American Golf and the like and te problem is the driver and not me!!!
Hopefully I will pick up plenty of hints and tips about the game and have a good laugh here at the same time.
Oh, I'll apologise in advance for some of the poor attempts at jokes I am likely to make too!!!
