Hello All

Hello everyone. I am Erik, and am new here. I have dabbled with golf for many years but am getting very serious this year.

I just read Ben Hogan's Fundamentals of Golf 5 Lessons, and loved it! Within 3 months, I dropped about 10 strokes (now a 20 handicap).

I still want to shave off 10 more strokes, and thought this forum would be a great home base to help. I am very interested in some more good books and other things that will help me out. I have never taken a lesson and I don't want to.

Thanks for having me guys!

Welcome Aboard.

Hogan's 5 Lessons is a good book, but I would also recommend Harvey Penick's Red, Green, and Blue book. A lot of good information in a very easy to read format.

I bought the red book today. A lot of people recommended it to me!

She runs into the clubhouse screaming, "I've been stung by a bee!"
The golf pro responded, "Where?"

The lady answered, "Between the first and second hole!"
The pro stated, "You're stance is too wide."
