    Greetings from just another golf Nut!

    Hi golfers;
    I'm a lefty and I like to say I belong to the 50/50 club. Over 50 years old and 50 lbs overweight.
    I've been playing a dozen times a year or so for about 15 years now.
    I've taken lessons a couple times but don't practice much.(That's why I don't score that well).
    I go to Myrtle Beach in November with a great bunch of church friends (28)and have a awesome time.I usually end up scoring in the low 100's...tooo many 3 putts but have fun making snowmen.(get my money's worth from the course!)
    Just got a new set of Callaway Big Bertha's so I'll be selling my old clubs soon.
    Wilson X31's graphite and Wilson Staff Ultra's steel 115gm.
    I love this game and watch it often but don't play it nearly as much as I'd like.
    Happy New Year and Blessings 2 all!
    Bill

    I think Hacker chased him away by calling him a Golf Nut! I mean good lord, a guy that plays only 12 games a year can't be certified as a Golf Nut! Sheesh

    Don't worry boys..I don't scare that easily. If you only knew some of the places I had to look for my ball...now that's scarey.I just like to have fun and laugh at myself. Heck I figure if you can't laugh at yourself then go stick your head in the sand! Enjoy life..you never know when it will end!

    Welcome aboard. This is a good group of slightly disfunctional individuals who seem to think that golf is one of the most important things in life. Come to think of it, they're right. Enjoy yourself.
