    Welcome!  Good for you for switching your equipment to starter clubs across the board... you are well on your way.  Just a quick observation (from your score history):  the virtual us open qualifier can be a bit discouraging with the equipment available to you as a beginner.  The tees are positioned way back for the legend tier level (very long!) and will be difficult for you to say the least.  Most members recommend upgrading equipment for longer distances and accuracies around the tour pro and master tier levels. 

    For now I would recommend playing other courses in stroke play mode, play ranked rounds and join free stroke play tourneys which keep you within your tier (hack, amateur etc.) and you can track your improvement via stats, awards etc.  But who knows, a lot can happen in a month and maybe you can take a run at the open qualifier...  :) 

    And last but not least, you can join a country club with plenty of friendly people to give you tips and join country club tourneys for other opportunities for advancement and friendly match play.  Enjoy!   -Keith
