newbie re-starting the hobby

[rig-pig]

thought i would join up and say hi, i have just started playing golf again, the last time i played properly was 20 years ago when i was 16, HC of 18, the last time i had a round with some friends was 15 years ago, just joined up to Kingennie golf club and got a membership for my son (age 6) as well, my first 9 holes played the other day consisted of 5 lost balls and way over par but i enjoyed my round, so much so i went out 2 days later in the pouring rain, full waterproofs and umbrella, only 1 lost ball but still way over par, even enjoyed it in the rain, im sure i will be searching the forum for some hints and tips.

so im away to have a look around :whoo::fore:

Welcome. I'm at a similar stage having taken up the game again 2 months ago after a 10 year lay off. If you're anything like me then way over par will be the norm for a good while yet. Doesn't detract from golf being one of the most addictive and enjoyable games out there though!!
