Hi everyone.
I started playing because my girlfriend does. I'm not very good yet but I expect that may change if I practice and listen to her...at least that's what she tells me
Anyway, like I guess a few people I've done baseball and softball for recreation, and mini-golf. Grew up near a country club so I caddied a little bit but I'd not ever done any golf but putting.
So when I got together with my girlfriend I got my own gear and am slowly learning how to get the ball in the air consistently. Biggest problem seems to be consistently getting a stroke and needing to slow down because my bat-speed was really high in baseball and golf's different...need to hit it right & consistent before I can speed up the club.

Because I'm of an intellectual bent, I looked around on the net for instruction as well as finding forums like this one...it might help me with gear choices and technique.
I want to get my stroke down and an idea of what's comfortable, and then I may take an actual lesson or two.
