    Default Starting late in Sydney

    Hello all

    Only started playing 2 years ago at the age of 39. Another member here, Gammon, got me into golf by talking about golf most of the time when we went out for dinner with our wives so I thought i'd give it a go. Been playing sporadically, mainly at Royal Marrickville, but have just applied to join Kogarah and give this hobby a proper go.

    Highlight so far is playing Natadolo in Fiji. Lowlight could be any one of a number of greens I have traversed multiple times chasing thinned chips back and forth, either that or hitting a pearler of a drive and then watching Gammon's mis-hit drive trickle a metre past mine lol.

    Looking forward to being a proper golf club member and finding shiny bits of metal to waste money on!

    Paul

    Hey hey! Welcome. Looks like your journey to golf ho dem is really coming along. Some of the guys on here will further develop your infatuation with golf equipment you don't need. Some great peeps on here, will have to get you out to a golf trip away, they break up the awesome booze sessions with a few rounds of golf.
    Will be great to have you at Kogarah now that Capt Nemo has abandoned me for Bonnie Doon.

    Not really unless you count an ability to thin the ball really far with a wedge. I did once witness him have a Guinness induced hangover in NZ - the only time I've seen him suffer the day after in 10 years.

    Never blame the booze, too much rich food was the issue.😀
