This spring has been especially chilly and rainy, so I was very happy today when the weather warmed up enough for us to get outside a bit and enjoy the sunshine. My family took advantage of the day and went to the driving range. We all had a great time :-) I started out a bit slow, but really started connecting at the end and had a few beautiful, long shots (well, long for me at least - landing around the 200 yard marker). I will just ignore all the balls that I hooked (gotta stop turning the club in my hands on my backswing!) or that only went like 10 yards :-) I definitely need more practice, that's for sure.
As I mentioned a couple years ago, I took two golf classes as an undergraduate and learned a little about technique, but it's amazing how fast you can lose what you've learned without practice. Thank goodness I haven't actually had any "business meetings" on the golf course because I think I would embarrass myself! I really do love the sport, even though it can be really frustrating when the ball doesn't go where I want it to go. So who wants to take lessons with me later this summer?
