While we were hitting balls, the teacher, who is also a golf
pro, came out and helped N out with his form and swing. She was so cool about
it, she essentially gave him a free lesson, and pointed out many things that I
had no idea about like how to place your hands and body dynamics. It makes you
realize that there is a whole science to golf, beyond anything I’m capable of
learning. She also complimented N on his swing and his strength, and I have to
confess, he is a rather strong boy.
After we were done, she mentioned that when she closes up,
she goes out and pitches the balls on the grass into a centralized area, and
she invited us to come on down and join her. I thought that was really nice.
She pointed out that the grips on his irons were a bit big for his hands and
that was why he tended to choke up on the handle. She said she could order
junior grips that would feel better, and we were all for it. They also come in
cool colors, and are not expensive in the least.
All in all, it was a nice day spent at Amy’s Range, full of
good vibes. After golfing, we went over the climbing gym, which just re-opened.
It’s called the Green Mountain Climbing Gym, and it’s good to see them back in
business. The place looked good, and we might go for a climb one day soon. We
got home in the early afternoon, had some lunch, took the car in, whipped up
some supper for after UF, then went to UF, which was fun. We had a good crew
out there. Then again, we generally manage to have fun with UF.
Until the next time, thanks for reading, and thanks to Jeff the Trojan for the pic.
