I am new to golf also. If you take a few lessons when you get here, take the good golf class, you'll be good to go. I felt intimidated at first with other players better than me but found that as long as I don't hold them up they are happy for me when I make a good shot and they make all kinds of nice comments. Of course I watch the other golfers and mimic what they do as far as not talking when they are hitting or walking in the path of the ball and moving along. If you get frustrated on a shot, just drop the ball in the ball drop area or pick it up and move on to the next hole. I really enjoy the game and the new friends I've made.
