Hello Members and Pros,
I am not much for online conversation but if it happens to be with golfers that desire to help others with the game they love,...well then how can a guy go wrong. They call me SteakDaddy. I have been lets say under the weather
for the last two years and have only played 2 full rounds of golf.
My physical condition is now to the point where I am finally able to begin to play again although I will still need about 2 months of taking it slower than I would prefer. I am a 12-14 handicap with a lifelong problem with my iron play. I will be looking for any advise I can get on how to not only be more consistent, but also much longer. I am big and strong and 41 yrs old at 6' 3" & 250. I have always been very athletic and picked up on the short game fairly well as a beginner 10 years ago. My driver though inconsistant at times is usually fairly easy to correct most of time. I play with an older set of Pings and for example my PW is a consistent 90 yds and my 5 iron is about 160-165. Yes, I do have a slower swing but only because I can be more accurate if I use a club or even 2 longer and take that very smooth stroke plus I have learned no matter how hard I swing the distance is just not there. Ok, so here is MY first plea for help. I definately am fired up about playing golf again. I am aware that after the layoff I have had that this is a good time to start over in the areas I have always struggled with. What do you guys feel that my plan should be in order to 1. yes, correct my weaknesses, but also 2. to come back in such a way that I am able to get the most progress in the shortest time and reach my goal
of shooting in the 70s. Thank You ! Didnt mean to be so long but background is important for proper help.
Please reply and Thanks again randysteakley@midsouth.rr.com SteakDaddy

and especially when you miss that commrodiery (mispelled Im sure) from your buddies. Reality is that until I either practice or get with a pro I will start off wrong. I am no way limber and can only swing at % of what I would swing at normally. So thanks, I guess reassuring is what I need more than anything right now. I am going to go ahead and place you in here as a BUD if thats OK. Let me know if there is anything I may be able to help you with. I noticed you are from the UK. If you only have a question about what it is like over here in the US that will be fine too. In fact I would find it quite interesting too get others opinions sometimes. Talk with you again soon BUD.
