LOL! I'm working on both. Last year my wife and son bought me an inexpensive membership, then again this year. For the 4-5 years prior to that I'd only been playing a couple rounds a year (health reasons). Now, I'm glad to be back in the game but have a lot of catching up to do. I'm getting there (had my longest drive of the year yesterday...204 yards), but there's still some work to do. That's one of the things that makes it such a great game. You're your own toughest competitor...
I know what you mean. It takes that one sweet hit to keep bringing you back.
