Date: September 6th, 2010 11:25 PM Author: Passionate Lodge Boiling Water cr, accuracy is also way >>>>>> distance. I can hit a 9 iron off the tee and still make par, because I can get a 1 putt every time playing baller short game the entire time. Driving far comes after you can get it to the middle of the fairway 99 times out of 100. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1416496&forum_id=2,#15983762) |

Date: September 6th, 2010 11:28 PM Author: Vigorous Skinny Woman yes, definitely get a "set," but not until you've had a few lessons. when you have, go to a good golf course and have the PGA pro work with you in picking out a set of clubs.

estimate how much i should set aside per year if im serious about having a respectable handicap (using golf as a medium for networking, etc) |

Date: September 6th, 2010 11:37 PM Author: Vigorous Skinny Woman no, that's why you go to a respectable place. you might have to pay them for an hour of their time, but they are professionals and will do a good job. make sure your pro is a PGA pro, not some schmuck. well, it's been a while since i bought new clubs, but...you're probably looking at between $1k and $1.8k for your clubs and a good pair of golf shoes. you'll need to spend $30-$90 a year re-gripping your clubs (rule of thumb is get them regripped the same number of times/year that you play/week). gloves, you'll need several gloves a year...no more than $150 or so. balls, you can get a dozen decent new golf balls for like $20 or $30. as a noob. you might lose 4-6 balls a round, but you'll also find a bunch of balls. lessons range from $40/hour to $150+ with reputable PGA pros. you'll want a few of them occasionally. going to the range costs ~ $10, you'll want to do that 3-4 times a week, starting out. the price of a round will vary, particularly by geography. you should be able to find a decent course where you can play 18 for ~$50, or 9 for ~$15-20. play once or twice a week, if you have the time. it's fun to get out and play 9 in the evening. you should walk as much as possible, which will also save you some cash. |
