New

Its been awhile since I last blogged. Its been over 6 months actually. Since I last blogged I have moved clubs. Oregon was getting too expensive so I moved to the public Langdon Farms. Its nothing like Oregon. No dog legs and I have to pay for all the range balls. There are two good things that have come from this though. I am allowed to hit off of grass. Not right now because the weather is crappy but I will once it warms up. The second is my new teacher Bruce Furman. Bruce was the 2009 Pacific Northwest teacher of the year. He has taught many golfers that have gone on to become college golfers at D1 schools. During my break between teachers I was hitting the ball bad. What Bruce brought to my attention was that I was standing too close to the ball, had too wide of a stance, was swinging too upright, and i was moving way ahead of the ball and not getting back. It all feels so strange and my scores are reflecting that but they will go down. I played at bandon during spring break as my birthday present. It was amazing! Best birthday ever! I played all 4 courses and played Pacific twice. If you didn't know all 4 bandon courses are ranked within the top 15 courses you can play in America. Best golfing experience of my life. My favorite course was the newest one, Old Macdonald. It was a true links style course like something you would see in Scotland or Ireland. It was so different and great. I also got new Tiger Woods golf shoes. I'm looking to get some new Irons. I have gotten a new 3 wood. Titleist 910 F-D which is adjustable. I also got a new putter. Its a Cleavland Classic. It rolls so pure and my putting is amazing now. Its nickname is the cheap scotty because its only 90 bucks but it is just like the 300 dollar scotty Cameron putter. I also just got a bunch of really cool golf clothes. I feel that at this moment, my golf game will go nowhere but up. Its a really good feeling. Especially my driver. Since I last blogged I have greatly increased my distance off the tee. I'm averaging about 300 yards and am hitting almost every single fairway. Next time I blog it will be summer. This is going to be a great summer!
