I am in Swansea, IL. I typically play St. Clair Country Club (private), Far Oaks, Stonewolf, Gateway National, and Tamarack as my normal track. Before, my office was in St. Louis, so I used to play Tapawingo, Aberdeen, Peavely Farms and Missouri Bluffs all the time. But that's several years ago. I subbed in a work league at Forest Park a few times too.
Open to travel anywhere in the area. I sub in a league at Far Oaks and Stonewolf on Monday, Tuesday, I sub at Far Oaks and Tamarack. Wednesday, I play my league at St. Clair. Thursday is a day off. Friday, Saturday, Sunday - I typically get in a money game at St. Clair.
I have been working on it for a couple of years. The instructor that I worked with last weekend was the one who suggested I give it a try. After that, I started researching like I always do and came across Tom's videos.
I was so happy with how well his methods worked that I decided to subscribe partially to pay him back for what I learned. As mentioned previosly, my shoulder pretty much shut me down last year but now that I am on the mend I am starting to hit balls again in my front yard and at the range.
I haven't played on a course yet this year but am looking forward to getting out and trying my new relaxed swing using Tom's teachings. I am one of those who practices a lot more often than I play, but during the summer I try to play once a week or every two weeks. Still working full-time so that's about all I can handle.
PS It looks like I might get a job as a starter at Tower Tee's Par 3 Course. It will only be 5 -10 hours a week on weekends, the pay is not much but you get a free bucket of balls every day and discounts on equipment. I am anxious to play the course as I am working on my chipping and pitching using Tom's amazing methods. Perhaps we could meet there sometime if it's not too far from you. Are we could pick a spot in the middle. I live in South County.
Tower Tee is about 40 minutes away from me. Happy to go out there. Never been. I haven't played a par 3 track since my first year playing golf. It would probably be good for my game to get out there.
Let me know what days and times you are available and we can hit balls at the range and perhaps play the par 3. Alternately is there a range about halfway between Affton and your place, perhaps in Washington Park, IL?

I am in Southern Illinois down by Marion.
I'm in. I like Aberdeen and Forest Park but I am open to play anywhere. How about you?
