Does 2.Bf5 a mistake?

 Here is the game I played. He immediately move his bishop to f5 and I immediately have created threats on the queenside by attacking his b7 pawn, and his pawn on d5.

 My question is if the move 2.Bf5 was a mistake or inaccuracy. Yes, it allows the bishop to an active position but there are some drawbacks too.

I prefer not to share the whole game as I only wanted to know your thoughts and opinions on the opening. :D

no.

At my club, one of the club players always plays 1. d4 Bf4, Or as black, 1.d4 d5 2. Nf3 Bf5. He tells me he chooses to play this line, cause in a lot of lines with d4 the bishop is often a hard piece to activate.

nope...not a mistake.this is called the Baltic defense....it has a lot of venom if white is unprepared against it.I play this myself from time to time.

BF5 is good move in my opinion one of Blacks more active try's after Nf3. Black should always take back with the E pawn in such a position tho.
