Another reason is the fact that all my coworkers and friends play golf, so I figured, enough with the neigh-saying and just give it a try. I played golf on my computer so at least I was slightly familiar with the hierarchy of club usage. So I decided to go to the driving range and at least check out if I can get the hang of it.
Long story short, I went to the driving range with my best friend Rich and I fell completely in awe of the sport. I had a lot of fun and it opened my eyes to a new obsession. Yeah, I got bit by the bug. SO I am now taking lessons to get my form right because I hear a lot of people spending years wasted trying to find the right technique on their own. I started my lessons 3 weeks ago and I am having an absolutely great time learning something new. I definitely give it more respect now that I understand just how much goes into each swing. I will probably hit the range and spend a few months building confidence in my swing, and then I'll give it a try on a course.
Wish me luck and I will keep you posted on that.

just wanted to be the first to comment on your blog. LOL
"Hierarchy of golf usage"? Dude. I didn't know you could write like that. I wonder what else I'll discover with your blogging.
And happy to have inspired you in blogging. I don't have the all-encompassing blog like you, though, with your lofty desires of blogging about so many things. I'm a little duller with just homeschooling. Ah, well. ;-)
Love you.
Sorry I deleted my previous comment. I accidentally wrote my first name instead of my middle name. Hey, can you put my middle name on the sidebar instead? Or just have V.M. Jarski? I'm so paranoid .... LOL
you're golfing??!?
such elitism...
:-)
