    Hi all,
    Joe here...
    just started playing golf again after being away for more than 10 years.
    been going to the driving range for the last few weeks and will be playing my first proper 18 holes with a social group i found online.

    Looking forward to learning how to play again.

    found that there are way more gadgets and goodies to play with.... kind of dangerous

    sorry no idea to be honest... as I am not too familiar with new ball technologies for now.
    my last 9 hole round I was using some old Srixon balls I have had in the bag for 10 years

    Welcome Joe.

    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.

    did manage to pull out a few good shots out of my backside... but putting killed me too... par 3 played 1 on 4 putts doesnt make me a confident golfer
