    Default Greetings ...

    G'day everyone!

    My name is Russ, and live in the Blacktown district of Sydney.

    I thought I'd be polite and post an Intro before I started firing off questions/comments.

    Enjoyed Golf for years, but hadn't bothered taking it too seriously until recently. Over the past few months I've upped the amount of golf I play from once or twice a year to a couple times a month - though I still suck!

    I want to increase that to at least once a week, so I'm considering becoming a member at a club, and take the necessary steps for getting an official handicap - I thought it best I join a place such as this, as the advice/thoughts will definitely come in handy and help with my decision making.


    Take it easy!

    Russ

    Russ, thats no way to introduce yourself here, if you dont start of with a sledge, nobody is going to respect you. C'mon, its Australia day (almost) get with the aussie spirit.

    My apologies Mark. I'll be sure to tell someone to get ****ed and call 'em a **** as soon as I can. And I'll be sure to post it among my thoughts on a topic I know absolutely nothing about
