Hi , Just started back after 6 years off and 2 carpal tunnel surgeries. Have been to the driving range quite a few times getting me back in the groove.  Played about 8 rounds and the scores have been getting better every time out, broke 100 last week for the first time since stating back and friday shot a 86 to break 90 and meet my goals.

I hope to be back in the 70's in a few weeks, where i was when i had to stop due to medical conditions and work schedules.

I have taken on the stack and tilt swing and have had great success with it, I was using a overly strong grip and way to much grip pressure, now I have a swing I can repete and feel comfortable with. The miss hits are not near as bad or frequent, and I think that is due to keeping weight more on the front foot and not swaying in the backswing.
Still a learning process, but think it will payoff in consistancy and yardage.

Later  Spike
Anyone in upstate SC or Western NC looking for someone to play with give me a shout.
