gotten bit with the golf bug again..

[IAmTheDood]

for a long time golf was my game, i played competitively in high school and college. left college with a 2 handicap.

played as much as i can after .. got married, played only a few times a year .. got divorced .. played more .. but only played 3 times last year.

my 6 year old is expressing an interest so I bought her some clubs .. took her to the driving range a few times last week.

i took thursday off and played 18, shot around 80. took my daughter out last night for her first 9.

well, it's officially bit me again, the bug that is .. i signed up for a 3 day city tournament that i used to play in ..

we'll see how it goes!

I have a friend whose Dad made his own golf course on his family land. The dad passed away a couple of years back and none of his sons played golf, but they kept maintaining the course just like they had when Dad was alive. So his Mom basically said "Well, SOMEBODY is going to use that course. Your daddy put a LOT of work into it." and assigned golf as a chore to her sons. So my friend actually HAS to play golf on a private course at least once a month. He does it on the days when it's his turn to mow the course.

I introduced him to shotgun golf. We had a lot of fun, but his Mom objected. So he's back to regular golf as a chore.
