Would have been better if you had registered with your real name, no one like talking to someone without a name.

Well Mehmet, welcome to the site and the wonderful game of golf. 97 for a first attempt is probably one of the best scores done by anybody, you must have natural talent.

Yes 97 can be considered an excellent score for a first time round a golf course,   Mehmet. Having spent a lot of time in Turkey in the 70's I will say that I found the Turks a friendly race and it is nice to see that they have now embraced this game with enthusiasm with the building of many new courses in Turkey.

Welcome Mehmet.  We've had a lot of spam lately, hence the reason for scepticism when you only had a user name.  Nothing personal I assure you. 

I took my clubs to Florida with me a couple of years ago.  It's not a real issue as long as you're willing to pay around £20 each way carriage, have a decent carry case and have a big car to get them and the luggage in!  Most of the courses hire out clubs for around £35 a round for a full set so that may be another option for you.  They will all be standard fit so if your current set is 'off the shelf' you'll be fine.
