I'm just really...I know I'll find the time one day. I'm just really surprised at the turn around in such a short period of time. Netter and I both do love to golf, and she is the one who actually got me started watching it on t.v. - and it was originally her idea to buy the Muirfield tickets. Maybe we will make that trip and get back into the game.<BR/><BR/>Nancy - a golf retirement location - Brilliant! I'll blame, I mean I'll tell Netter it was an idea inspired by you.<BR/><BR/>Butch, I didn't know Duval's wife went to Tech. I know he was engaged to Julie somebody, (starts with an M) and she booted him one year during a practice round for the Phoenix Open. Ruined his career I think. (Insert much namecalling here.)<BR/><BR/>The way I played last summer. It sounds like we might make perfect golfing partners.<BR/><BR/>Tennis = waaaay more exercise than this old body is used to. And I suck at that too. ;-)Jim Brochowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02198815088328291043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6431308111851572672.post-67378550828034846772009-02-06T17:41:00.000-05:002009-02-06T17:41:00.000-05:00I had classes with Duval's wife at Tech - she was ...I had classes with Duval's wife at Tech - she was a brunette then...<BR/><BR/>But I digress - if you ever want to feel good about your game - take me! Last time I was golfing, I was on my 12th shot off the 5th hole, and I felt a sting on my left leg. I looked behind me, and there was a ball, and a fellow at running toward me yelling "sorry, sorry, sorry". Upon reaching me, he explained that he noticed I was hitting my 12th shot and he was teeing off, and figured, there was NO way that he would be able to hit me. <BR/><BR/>He was wrong.<BR/><BR/>I don't clutter up the course anymore - tennis is easier anyway. Bigger ball, bigger target, less opportunities to look like a complete friggin idiot... :o)Kathy Hennessyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06187635382028802995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6431308111851572672.post-50992066237037636292009-02-05T07:48:00.000-05:002009-02-05T07:48:00.000-05:00Well Jimmer, there is a time when the kids will be...Well Jimmer, there is a time when the kids will be grown and you will have time to get back into golf. After ten (count them 10!) years of ZERO golfing, I finally got back into golf last year. I am as hooked as I ever was and enjoy it a heck of a lot more than I used to. It is also good for my bones, esp. my back, due to early osteoporosis - yes I walk and carry my bag - which is of course a new criss-cross strap design. <BR/><BR/>How about this? My DH and I spent our 20th wedding anniversary golfing 6 courses at Myrtle Beach last Sept. and neither he nor I were the ones holding the foursome back! <BR/><BR/>Here's to being grateful one kid is graduated and the other almost, so I can look forward to a summer of golf again each year. It will happen for you too!<BR/><BR/>Oh, did I mention looking for a golf retirement location yet? I LOVE GOLF!!Fancy Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00614420123191241298noreply@blogger.com
