I swore that I would NEVER take up the game of Golf....I didn't see the point....chasing a little white ball around for a couple of hours.....well again it is proven that you should never say NEVER......John started playing again about two months ago and asked me if I would be interested....I emphatically answered NO! well he kept talking and asking me to just go hit some on the driving range....I made exuses after excuses......he kept asking.....so I figured I'd go up there show him how badly I was at it and then we would move on.......another BIG mistake! Went for the first time....didn't do too bad but it wasn't the greatest either....didn't need to worry about them swooping me up to be on the next LPGA......then he went out and bought me Purple clubs......aw man....really did you need to do that....so a couple more trips to the driving range......then we took the clubs to the Golf Shop and found that the grips were really bad....what no purple grips.....well then the pink ones will be great......now I have new bright pink grips with my purple clubs......then I was told that I needed to start hitting with my Irons and not just my Drivers......so at this point my 4 Iron and I are best buds.....can hit that silly little white ball almost to the 150 mark.....my goal 200........still I'm not off the driving range yet.....John keeps telling me that I am ready to play....me not so much.....I have hit, chipped, putted and even practiced getting out of the sand.....I guess I need to take the next step and see how far under or over par I will be after doing 9 holes.....yes 9 holes - not jumping into 18 immediately........

PURPLE clubs with BRIGHT PINK grips?! Oh, woW, great!! Maybe we can play together sometime but it seems too HOT to play golf in AZ in August.
