Haha testing throwing it actually is an interesting idea. The threshold is probably not where I think it is.
I don't think the grips are the problem. As I said, the torn skin is not where my hand contacts the surface of the grip. On the other hand, smaller or bigger grips could change the way I wear my hands. First however I'm gonna work on holding them less tightly.
Depends what you mean by 'new to golf' I guess. I mean on a good day playing 9 holes I can get several pars so I'm definitely not new, but on the other hand if you look at my entire round on an average day I still make some pretty big mistakes so I'm no single digit handicap either.
BTW I would have had a handicap much sooner probably if it was convenient... it's a pain to do it if you don't belong anywhere and my parents never belonged to a club or anything so neither have I.

aah, that explains it ^^, me myself has been quite inactive in recent years, so your prolly better than I am heheh :=)
Just a tip thou, in my country we have this called *distant member* at some places, what you do is that you get an membership for very cheap at some random club quite far away where u live and just paying for the *membership* and not the greenfe. This way you get an *ligit* handicap and can play wherever you want ^^ (as I hear it, your quite near 36? already
). And at these smaller golf-clubs, theyr much more friendly aswell as I have experienced heh, so they shouldnt wine so much about that 36 threshold
