April 11, 2005

Friday,April 8,2005 marks the beginning of my golfing season. I played 9 holes on Friday at the Wardsville Golf Club ( I'm a member) , played 9 holes Sunday in Oshawa with brother-in-law Shawn, and Played 18 holes today at Wardsville. y club has opened up a new 9 holes, so it now has 27 holes. this means that when the course is taken over by a tournament ( its is a public course), members will still be able to play.

This is one of the best courses around this area. It also has moderate membership rates so it is a great place.

Today, my wife took my golf clubs to work with her, so when I arrive at the club I play I didn't have any club. I asked the woman at the clubhouse ( Merri Lee ) about renting some clubs and she said that the clubs they had for rentals were really bad. I am left handed, and so is she, so she lent me her clubs. This is something that can only happen in a small town. Golfers are notoriously protective of their golf clubs, especially if they have expensive equipment. This set of clubs was excellent.

Using clubs with slightly shorter shafts than I am used to made me realize that I have been playing with some clubs that have longer shafts than I should have.

One of the guys I was playing with was kidding me about playing with "lady's clubs", and said he was going to tell everyone that I said I liked playing with lady's clubs. I said "I don't care. I will just tell people about the fact that I played better with lady's clubs than you did with your own".
In fact I out -drove the three guys I was playing with, on every driving hole except one. Ha.

I was just really appreciative of the fact that Merri Lee lent me her clubs so I could get out and play on such a great sunny SW Middlesex day.
