Title: Glory story a.k.a. Proud father Post by: Fuzzy on June 29, 2007, 07:16:38 AM I took off work yesterday afternoon and hit the links with Zoe (my 10 year old daughter). I have promised her that this summer I would take her to "real" golf courses and not just a par 3 or executive course so we hit the Chaska Town Course.
It was just the two of us and we had a great day. She would tee it up at the 150 yard marker except on a couple of holes that required a carry of that distance to get to the green and a couple of the par 3's that played less than 150 from the forward tees. Well, the glory story part came on the par 3 #14. She played from the forward tees which were at 110 yards. Knocked it on the green but 3 putted for a bogey. It was the first time I have looked at her and thought, wow, she appears to be a "golfer". She was hitting it o.k. all day and really needs to concentrate on her putting but I may have a new golfing partner! 8) Title: Re: Glory story a.k.a.

Then we have a foursome.

Props to Zoe. I think I doubled that hole last time. ;) Title: Re: Glory story a.k.a. Proud father Post by: stroh on June 29, 2007, 07:48:55 AM [sm_thumbsup]
