New beginnings are always tough, whether you are starting a new job, career, hobby, or even a blog. Sometimes the best approach is just to dive in and start — and that’s precisely what I intend to do.
Let me introduce myself — I’m a fairly new computer engineer and am working in downtown Toronto as a software developer. My day-to-day consists of writing .NET web applications in C#, debugging issues and managing servers, so any chance I have to get away from my desk and get outdoors, I’ll take.
Golf is something that I’ve only had limited exposure to in the past — only having played a few times with friends and never really got the chance to practice and try to improve. This past May I set a goal for myself that by the end of the summer, I’ll be good at golf. Not great, but good. After only a few weeks of practice I have certainly come a long way, and learnt many lessons in the process, which I hope to share with you here.
On this site, I will document my progress and hopefully help others who come across the same situations as I have. I will analyze all of the advances I make, from choice of clubs to gloves, to stance to swing. Golf is an easy game to learn, yet with all of the small details, it certainly is a hard one to master.
Stay tuned, and happy golfing.
