Making A Major Milestone At The Grateful Golfer Golf Blog

/ The Grateful Golfer

It finally happened a few days ago. The Grateful Golfer golf blog reach the major milestone of 1 million visitors. This was an original goal I set from when first started writing back in May of 2012. As you know, this golf blog was set up to allow me to manage my critical life event (twice actually) and to expand my thoughts on a passion that is ever growing. I am not bragging, but highlighting my gratitude to all the readers who graced the musing of an amateur golfer trying to navigate the challenges on and off the golf course.

I want to thank everyone for allowing me to share a small part of your day and will rededicate my time to writing more about this amazing sport. I am blessed in many ways and reaching this amazing milestone helps fuel my desire to continue sharing my musings on a regular basis. Thanks again for all the support!

As your golf season starts to ramp up (for those of us in the northern climes) it will be time to set some goals moving forward. This is aways the first step for my golf season and I plan to follow the same successful path. Last year, I missed about eight weeks of my season due to medical challenges, but this year I am ready to take a full swing at improving my game. As I trundle down my path this year, I hope you will continue to stay with me and share in the trials and tribulations of my game.

I am a grateful golfer! See you on the links!

  1. Hey, congratulations. That’s an impressive milestone.

    The new irons got here today. Had them on the course already for an initial trial. I bought them on eBay rather than after a fitting like I have in the past so I knew changes would be needed. And those begin right away. I’ll be heading to my club pro right away to have the shafts on these irons lengthened. They are simply too short for me. Or the lie angle is too shallow. Both likely. But adjusting both is going too far I think. Better to add length first, test lie angle after and tweak then if needed. The reason for that is for each 1/2 inch of length you add, you are also increasing lie angle by about one degree, or so I’ve been led to believe, and I’ll be having the tech add 3/4’s of an inch tomorrow.

    I get that by both what I felt with them today on the course and what my old 6 iron looks like next to the new one. It’s a shame that the grips won’t likely survive but they aren’t my favorite grips anyway. I’ll have them put on the Golf Pride CPx grips I’ve come to prefer.

    Oh, and while they are at present too short and made me have to make too many adjustments to get a good strike, when I did get one, they felt great.
