Okay, so I bought the golf shoes before my score is even within sight of par, BUT they were only $12 - almost new Adidas Z-Traxions, from Sports Junkies (regularly $129) and aren't they cute?
I golfed last night with my parents and sister at our local Par 3 course, and since we couldn't start until 8:20pm, we managed only 6 holes before darkness curtailed our fun.
My sister, who hasn't golfed since high school managed to fly under the radar for two holes until we realized she was using the #3 driver for every shot .. including putting. "Oh, does that make a difference?"
Dad was very serious, taking at least 5 or 6 practice shots each time. They looked to us to be complete misses, but he insisted they were practice shots, so we cheered him on.
I don't remember much of Mum's actual golfing which probably means she was pretty consistent, but I can still hear her laughter in my head. She was so good natured, as usual - even when my Dad tried to kill her with one of his bizarre spazzy sideways shots.
I really don't want to discuss my score on holes one, three, four, five or six... because I honestly believe they do not represent my true ability or finesse.
So let's talk about Hole #2 shall we? Suffice it to say that I was in top form, shooting one under par for (what we pros call) a BIRDIE!! And quite frankly, I looked adorable doing it... must be the new shoes.
Note to self: Bring bug spray for twilight golf.
