| don't laugh Name: John
Age: 28
Handicap: Don't know, but it would be around 50
Drive Avg: 210 straight plus another 40 to the right
Courses: public
Status: Newbie (Actually been playing for years, but only like once a year. Just started taking it seriously weeks ago.)
Bag: Entire bag is a full O'donnell set. Don't know if that's a good brand or not, but they're fine for my level. They were a xmas gift.
Hybrid: This weird looking thing with "fangs" that hang down and dig into the grass.
Balls: X-outs and whatever I find abandoned on the course.
Best part of game: Driving the cart (no accidents yet!)
Longest comfortable club: 6 iron
Part that needs the most work: Using my driver (nothing gets me into more trouble than that thing)
Favorite part of game: The combination of being out in nature and challenging myself.
Best round: 137, but I recently found out that I'd been doing penalties all wrong and giving myself too many. Haven't played a full 18 since, but I bet my score will be a lot lower next time.
Most memorable moment: First time I played at Lake Elizabeth Golf Course near Palmdale, CA. Extremely hilly. It's a blast but you'll get scared just driving the cart down these hills.
Longest Drive: 300 yards on a course that hardly had any grass and the ground was hard as a rock. My ball landed after about 220 and bounced and rolled the rest of the way on a slight downhill slope. |

Longest comfortable club- 6 iron because it is a Taylor Made What I need to work on- Everything, but mostly consistency, and putting My favorite part of the game- Um well I don't really have on favorite part but all that matters is I like the game. Best Round- My best round was 82 but the closest I've came to that lately is 91. A guy at the tournament yesterday had a 61 so I am still a long way off.
PS: Hey golfermatt How do you like those Taylor Made RAC OS irons. I am going to save up and get a whole nice complete set and those were the irons on my list.
__________________ I play in a regular foursome.
I'm a single looking for a game.
I race the sun to get in 18 and I've putted for hours in near darkness.
I belong to a club.
I play the munis.
Sometimes the game is metal and sometimes it's a match.
I grind for two bucks like it was a thousand.
I still feel my dad's hands teaching me to hold a club and I'll never forget the day I beat him. I AM A GOLFER.
See golf doesn't begin on the 1st tee and doesn't end on the 18th green... its a life long journey.
