Fish Club: August 2008 Archives
Time flies, is flying and may be flown.....
No kidding, tell me about it. We're on the cusp of August and summer will be over before you know it and I haven't even started my summer golf program yet. I was supposed to play more golf, (haven't). Was supposed to incorporate a new swing.(haven't). Stack and Tilt was going to resussciate my putrid iron play. My short game was going to improve dramatically with my plan to only chip and putt when I played twilight golf with my boys who are 9 and 12. (Hasn't).
Apparently, golf is only a blip on my boys' radar. My 12-year-old loves baseball and currently hates golf. However my curve ball is breaking 3 feet with all of the pitching we have been doing. My 9-year-old decided he likes golf but loves the instant gratification related to video games more. Especially after his last 3 hole mini-round which included a 16 on a par four, a 7 on a par 3 and a 6 on a par five (go figure?). He decided his expertise at all things electronic are easier on his psyche than Mike Strantz's massive waste areas on the second hole at True Blue where the 16 was made. I'll have to give the kid credit, he wouldn't pick up and he actually 2 putted once he got on the green.
I don't think I could have been prouder of the tenacious little guy.....Now if he would only apply some of that moxie to cleaning his room. The good folks who invented the Stick-up should use his room as a test lab.........
Time is flying but hasn't left the coop yet....there is still 5 weeks until Labor Day give or take a long day or two, the Stack and Tilt doesn't seem too complicated, the 9-year-old mentioned something about playing golf, and even the 12-year-old baseball freak didn't say that golf was stupid the other day when a family golf outing was mentioned. Who knows, maybe this summer can be saved afterall....
If you want to save your summer, come to Myrtle Beach now, I know it's hot but is it any hotter were you are? I doubt it. True Blue and Caledonia are in fantastic shape and the summer pricing is affordable for everyone in the family, including the baseball fanactics in your household. Give us a call or book online and as always thanks for allowing me to share this space with you!
Always at your service,
