As the weather turned positively summerly in Rancho San Diego there was hardly anything better for outdoorsy kids to do on a Monday afternoon than to spend it on a green golf course, chasing after the dimply little ball in the fastest, safest, and most courteous manner!
The course was a bit crowded, of course, so we had to improvise our round a bit. We played timed-alternate ball with emphasis on speed without forgetting course rules and etiquette. Most of the LUGGers saved their good hits for the real course and their slew of good shots helped kept the pace up. By the end of the round most of us had even gotten better at knowing where to position ourselves and our golf bag/cart in order to save time in between shots.
We also got to practice pitching over a bunker in the short game practice area. It is challenging refraining from making a full swing when having to hit over something like a big sand trap, but an easy little swing usually produces better shots indeed!
'Mother-Daughter Day' is our next event on May 9th at Cottonwood Golf Course. Don't forget to bring moms!
