I have just started judo and all i can say is wohaaa!! i love it ! I've been looking for a club for quite some time but found just one that was only for proffesional judo(performance club-i am 23 years old so i was not welcome).....but then i found out that in a military-marine institute they have a club too-so there i was the next day joining in! Not only that they welcome me with warm but they also gave me a gi to wear until i will buy one. 
I also train in qwan ki do which is a stand up fighting martial art that also incorporates lots of joint locks and throws but no ground work so that's way istarted judo !
Just wanted to share this with you all and say hi !!
p.s. yesterday learned o goshi

I THINK, BJJ has a better ground game, it is THE ground game.

| But well, for the people who don't have access to a BJJ dojo or don't have the money to train because they charge too much for lessons or plain and simple there arent interest in BJJ. Judo is a very good option. lol |

Have fun! I want to take Judo next year when I go to college. There's something about it that is more appealing to me than the other grappling arts.

Judo is great, and so is the O Goshi throws, but wait until you do ippon seoi nage, thats the damn coolest throw.
Congrats on finding something you like. |

Congratulations. I also think judo is a great option. I intended joining a judo dojo, but this year at the University my instructor put together a self defence class and they learn there Aikido, Judo and Shotokan techniques. Imagine I'm there all the time (although I don't have to take the classes). I just said PLEASE to my instructor and she's happy to have a "crash test dummy". She wouldn't throw a beginner, cause they are all freaked out, so she uses me. And I love every flight 
Go study Judo. You'll learn some useful things. Hmm O Goshi. OUCH. A beginner tried that on me. My left hand still hurts
