Thread: G'day everyone!

  1. #1

    Default G'day everyone!

    New guy from South Australia here.

    A bit about me:

    Started playing golf at a young age (9ish) with my father. Ended up quitting back in 06 due to school, at the time i think my handicap was high teens. Picked up the club again a few months ago and was bitten by the bug. Now myself and a mate (beginner) are loving it and plan on playing a bunch of courses over the Christmas break. Looking forward to learning more about the game from you guys and contributing to the community. Cheers!

    In my bag:

    Driver: Taylormade M1 10.5 Degree (Reg Flex 60g shaft)

    Wood: Nike CPR Recovery (22 Degree)

    Irons: Titleist 716 AP1's (5-PW)

    Wedges: Titleist Vokey 56 and 60 Degree (Black)

    Putter: Nike Blue Chip

    Bags: 10.5" Titleist Staff bag, Titleist Staff stand bag

    Used to be a Nike fanboy, but now i'm loving the Titleist gear.

    Welcome aboard Knighty.

    Being a member of Grange will be a massive advantage here. You a member anywhere?

    We have a decent sized bunched of scalliwags getting around down your way.

    Cheers,
    Ben

    Thanks Ben.

    Not a member at any course at the moment, just grinding out par 3 and range practice at a local course. My mate that i go around with is very new to the game, so i'm waiting until he's confident enough to play at a par 5 until we settle with a specific course.

    Thank you.

    Yeah, seems like it. I was planning on getting a 3 wood at some point, might have a look at an Aero Burner next time i've got some spare cash. I've got a old Nike Gap Wedge from my old set lying around that i may chuck into the mix. Still getting used to the new clubs though. Specifically, the irons have a lot lower loft compared to my previous set.

    Welcome to the growing number of SA OZgolfers, Knighty.

    Hopefully your local OZgolf champion will pop in to welcome you soon. It's tradition.

    If he doesn't, then the title gets handed back to the last holder.

    Welcome knighty.

    Keep an eye out in the 1st Tee area for the next SA day. It's a good way to meet a few of us. We generally aren't so bad...

    Where are you based in SA? North/south? Metro/country?

    What is your local kitchener bun source, and can we please have a review?

    Most importantly where do you stand on Schnit and the mighty Kitchener Bun?

    Welcome to the forum.

    Golf is, in part, a game; but only in part. It is also in part a religion, a fever, a vice, a mirage, a frenzy, a fear, an abscess, a joy, a thrill, a pest, a disease, an uplift, a brooding, a melancholy, a dream of yesterday and a hope for tomorrow. - New York Tribune, 1916.

    Down South mate. I've got 2 local courses; Penfield and Salisbury Green. S.G. is more than likely going to shut down soon though. I don't mind traveling to play, going to have a lesson with Simon from North Adelaide this weekend i believe. Looking forward to playing on that course. Might have a hit at Regency and Glenelg over the holidays too.
