i thought i'd introduce myself first before posting away.

i'm wull and i stay up in killin perthshire which is a lovely wee place up in scotland.the course's i currently plat at are killin golf club and callander golf club.my golfing past is a good one,i've been away from golf since 1999 and decided to take the game back up this year,in 1999 when i was 13 i played off of 7 and was imho a good junior golfer with a bright future.oh how things change:mad:

so this year i decided to take it back up and see how good i really could get,i know i'll never et all those years back but i feel i can still get to a good level if i put my mind to it.so i got my handicap at the start of may and it took me a while to get into the swing of things which is understandable,i was expecting more straight away but in the end it came good.

i started the season at 9.0 then went upto 9.5 before starting to come down.i was playing off of 9.2 in the middle of july and by the 16th of october i managed to get down to 5.8!

so i'm really looking forward to next season.
 
Welcome along

Stayed in Killin a few years ago while doing some Munro bagging around there. Beautiful part of the world.
 
Howdy Wull,

I have often driven past Killin looking at the course thinking that it looked like a lovely 9 holer to stop at and whittle away a couple of hours. Beautiful setting.

Callander is a little classic, a course that I really really enjoy, some little beauties of holes on that course and a very friendly clubhouse which does decent food. Welcome to the forum.
 
thanks for the replies guys,it was a good finish to the season.i knew i was capable of it but it took me the majority of the season to get back intot he swing of things.it was suxh a long time away but thankfully it's all back now.the plan next season will be to get as low as i can but in my mind i would be happy with 3 then i'd like to go from there.
