Late Spring 2010 - My first clubs…

As the weather began to drift from cold, horrible, torrential, heavy and depressing rain commonly associated with Winter in England, to a slightly less depressing form of precipitation, the ‘fair weather’ golfers began to emerge from their winter hibernation and head for the fairways.

This was a fact not missed by one their newest devotees, the little guy. In truth is was more of decent on the golf range rather than fairways and at this point the back garden had become somewhat more damaged than previously anticipated. And so with the new clubs ‘fully tested in the Argos special net, the mini golfer and his equipment were rapidly introduced to the excitement of the golf range.

Without to much preamble the wee man was loaded up with 50 balls in his bay (it wasn’t a busy day) and left to do his worst…Once again I was to be amazed, as a typical ‘hack’ my first few warm-up swings were tops and fat shots, whilst the cheeky mini me blasted ball after ball a consistent 40 to 50 yards with his three wood….the joys of youth!
