Default Beginner Golfer looking for like-minded people

I live in the northern part of the Villages. 64 years old, took a few lessons but am looking for another beginner to go out and play a bit now and then. I work part-time so my schedule varies. Open to forming a group too. Feel it best to learn with someone with same skill level. Doing it for fun. IM me if interested. I'm a villager work part-time in the Rec Dept. Jeff

You are much better off playing and learning with people that are better than you.

Agreed. Learn more from playing with experienced players

It would be more enjoyable to play with people with the same skill level but you would learn more playing with better players. I don't like playing with decent golfers simply because I find it intimidating to swing while being watched by the folks that drop the ball on the green every hole. In other words I choke most every time when the skill level of another player is a lot higher than mine.
