Good morning peeps,
After quite a long time I decided to return to the GM forum. I spend quite bit of time posting on another forum but its American so enough said
(good forum, not enough Brits).
So i'm back but as i never really got going the first time, a little about myself.
Been playing golf for 7 years on and off (thanks to 2 kids under 7!) and about to hit the big 4-0 so fingers crossed more golf on the horizon.
I'd class myself as a pretty average golfer, I play for fun and dont take it too seriously (which is good with my skill level).
Up until last autumn I was really starting to improve until I ended up in hospital and diagnosed with Beurgers disease (form of kidney disease). 3 months later I was cleared to start golf again as my kidneys stabalised at 90% functionality (on meds and observation for life but a small price to pay). Found I could not swing like i used to, my 7 iron distance had dropped to 129 yards so a fitting for graphite and working on a smoother less violent swing regained the lost distance, ended up with Srixon Z155's for £279 fitted so silver linings and all that.
Anyway, looking forward to posting on this forum and getting to know everyone here.
