courteneyfish:I would have added don't bother with pitch and chip too but Jim gets all cranky when I say that. :-)
You give the best to reasons to with that (lack of good) advice...
courteneyfish: I wonder if I'll get grumpy when I get old?
Correcting poor advice = cranky / grumpy.......Hmmmmmm where did your school buy its thesaurus? No need for to wonder or false modesty anyway you are doing excellently already:)
courteneyfish: Just play and have fun people. Life's too short to map clubs, worry about spin, use spread sheets, use calculators, worry about cheats, care about VEM, etc,etc,etc...
Unless that's all you care about and then it would be fine if you prefaced that way. Not that I use s SS, but spin comes in handy now and then. Remember some want to also play golf as well (as basically alluded to by YJ I think)......:)
