Let's GOLF!

Happy Spring everyone!

We think it's about time we learn something new!

The weather's getting nicer and we know that golf season is starting up so we thought, why not try to learn the ins and outs of the game and challenge ourselves to a round of golf? We've been to the driving range several times, and even done one round of 9 (way back when....) but we really want to learn how to golf properly and to improve our very basic skills (if you can even call it that).

Our previous (and limited!) golfing experience has also been a little trickier since one of us is a lefty. Despite trying to use right handed clubs, it just doesn't work! We're looking foward to being able to excel with the 'right' equipment! That should make things a lot easier!

We've registered for 5 golf lessons with Golf Town here in Ottawa and we're so excited to get started! Our first lesson is this coming week! Hopefully the instructor will be patient and start from the basics, because although we have taken some shots before and have practiced putting a little (mini-putt counts right?!), we don't really know the 'real' or 'professional' way to golf.

Then, this summer, we will be prepared to go out on the course and play, hopefully not like beginners, but like golfers who look like they know what they're doing!! It's the perfect time to learn - we'll have the rest of the spring/summer to enjoy the outdoors and have fun!

After our lessons, we'll be asking anyone who wants to play a round of golf to give us a call because we'll be anxious to get out and put our skills to the test!

So, here's to spring and to learning something new! What's great about this is that it's something we'll have forever, like riding a bike. Once we're taught the basics, we will be set for life!

Happy Golfing! We'll be eager to post about our lessons to let you know how they go!
