One of the hardest things for me to learn has been this:

"You can take the girl out of baseball, but you can't take baseball out of the girl."





I've picked up a few pointers and tips from others wanting to help me with my swing. So each time I head out to the course, I hear all these different things running through my head...bend your knees, keep all your weight on you right leg, line up your feet, don't straighten out, keep your eyes on the ball, don't look up too soon, go ahead and HIT the ground so you won't top the ball, and on, and on, and on....

I have learned that even with all that going on, the best drives I have hit were when I was totally relaxed, and didn't care about all that stuff.

I have never been that close!

NICE!!! The women must have 'the touch'!!!

(I don't think my husband has been that close before either!)

He DID express to me how upset he would be if I get a hole-in-one BEFORE him though...

Maybe you'll run into our old (not as in age) neighbor lady who golfs too!

You'll have to PM me her name.

On second thought, it probably wouldn't matter. Hubby is the social butterfly on the course. He knows just about everybody...ME? I can't even remember the Golf Pro's name. I keep calling him Bob instead of Bill. I think I've irritated him with that one too many times.

I will anyway...they are very well known in the community and awesome people...you'd LOVE them!

I'm laughing about poor Bill!

It's really not my fault!

When hubby was learning to play, he took lessons from Bob, the Golf Pro at a different course. So for years I always heard "Bob this, and Bob that."

I can't help it if that's the only name that comes to mind when I hear 'Golf Pro'!

Do you know Bill? Can you imagine the look on his face after doing this to him several times??? The first time, he took it with grace and a grain of salt. The second time, he was quick to correct me. The third time, he looked VERY annoyed, and I'm sure he wrote me off right then and there.

No, I do not know Bill, but it is funny!
