What is this all about?

WARNING: some (if not all)  of the posts on this blog will be boring.. you have been warned.

I am creating this blog to capture my progress as a 50 something year old starting Golf.

I never wanted to play, but my Brother-in-Law insisted that we play when it was his 50th birthday. We had never played before and we were as bad as any new starters ever.

Over the months since his birthday, we have become more and more enthusiastic and we try to play once a week. As my addiction has grown, I also play once a week with a work mate. So thats twice. Then in an attempt to get better quicker, I have weekly lessons and try to practice at the range once a week.

Addicted?

As I start this blog, I am no great golfer, the exact opposite indeed. But I ALWAYS enjoy the game no matter if I: lose or find balls, lose or win the game or even get a par or a triple bogey. Like all golfers, I would like to be better, but it seems to me that progress will not be rushed.

Not sure of the exact format of this blog, but I expect it will include my golf stories, memory joggers for me about particular rounds, comments from my lessons, perhaps even videos of my swiping at the poor white ball!

And I warn you it will be boring to anyone but me!
