I always thought golf was interesting but I just never had the opportunity to play it since it is so expensive. However, one of my best friends got a job at a golf course this summer and we play for free all the time
I had my best score today, shot a 133 for a par 72, 18 hole course which sounds horrible, I know, but I only started playing golf 10 days ago so I think it's pretty damn good.
I don't have a set of clubs yet, I've been playing with another friends' clubs the entire time (except for one game where we got some of the ones available to rent in the clubhouse, $1800 clubs, those were some sweet babies). I've been looking online for a complete set in the $100-$200 range and believe it or not I'm finding a lot of starter kits in that range. They arent Titlist, Callaway, Nike or Taylor-Made but for where I am right now I don't need anything better.
Anyways, if you guys ever get the chance don't miss the opportunity of getting into this great game. It is a blast when you're out there playing 18 holes with 2-3 buddies and a case of beer .
First of all, you are terrible.
Don't practice driving and chipping anywhere near as often as you practice putting. If you can putt, you can be awful with a club, but still get decent scores.
Secondly, when you find a nice set of clubs, send me a link. I used to go with my dad and grandpa all the time and some pretty nice courses when I was maybe 13 and 14, but haven't golfed in about 10 years and really want to get back into it. If you get a set in the $100-200 range, and they feel nice for awhile, definitely let me know.
