Hello everyone - I'm new THP. Great to find an active forum.
I'm about a year and a half into bar/restaurant ownership which means money is tight and my personal life is non-existent (no days off, 80, 100, sometimes 100+ hours/week). This year, I'm going to continue to work hard but pay more attention to my well being as well. After all, what's all the hard work for if I won't be mentally and physically healthy enough to enjoy the success? I have been around the game of golf since around 2005 but never really took it serious. Used to have a top flite set i used to take to the driving range a lot for "cheap entertainment." I got out to the courses but didn't take it too seriously. But this time around, I've decided to give it a go and take it seriously. I picked up a set of used clubs and have been to the range a few times this year so far. I spent the least I could to put together a set of what I deemed to be "hittable clubs". Driver, 3W, 5W, 4i-P, 52, 54, 60, P - I think I'm in about $200. All reputable brands just several year old models, Ping, Cobra, Callaway, Odyssey.
It feels really good to get back to the range. I forgot how much I enjoyed it. My hitting is of course very inconsistent but I'd like to think there's hope. Right now, from range session 1-3 the difference is already major as I "unlock" these golf muscles.
Anyway, I have no golf buddies to talk to about any of this so I'm just sharing my story here haha! Excited to get the journey started. For now, lessons first.
