Ungodly hi
What's going on everybody?
im a relatively noob to golf, been playing for about a year. I recently got my first set of real clubs, all callaway (razr x black 1,3,5 and razr x HL irons). I had been playing with a set of kunans that were from the mid 90's with the composite shafts that were splintered, so every time I hit a ball it didn't go far, and killed my hands! My highest score so far is a 99 at the only course on the island, but that was only my second round with the new clubs, so I'm hoping to get better.
I'm an air traffic controller in the air force, stationed on a tiny island called terceira, part of an island chain called the Azores, in the middle of the Atlantic. The Azores belong to Portugal, they're kind of like portugal's puerto Rico I guess. Anyways, love this site, been a lurker for a while so decided it was time to introduce myself

*edit* shoulda prolly said my name is Matt, mike echo is my operating initials for ATC, thinking about it now, I should have come up with a better user id

Welcome to Paradise! My family immigrated for Terceira and Sao Miguel 2 generations ago. I'm planning to get over there in about 2 years for a tour of the island.

Welcome, Matt. Spent 21+ years in and passed through there a few times on trips back and forth to Aviano.

I would imagine you play in some pretty good wind there.

Welcome to the best golf site on the Internet Mike! You'll love it here.

Squawk 1200, change to advisory frequency approved. :)
 
Do they still "bull fight" there? Meaning tie a long rope to a bull and "walk" him through the streets? Then see how any people get in his way.

Not saying I've ever done that, or fell off someone's nice rock fence when a bull came crashing through.

Anyway, welcome to THP!, this place is awesome, filled with awesome people.
