Golfing

I did something for the first time ever today. I went golfing. No, not at a mini-golf course, real true golfing. Doug took me under his wing to teach me the game he's played for 17 years. After many miss-swings, and well, foul words, I managed to be able to hit the ball atleast once every two swings. I have blisters on my hands and suffered some mild embarrassment from my lack of ablities, but atleast when passersby commented, it was on the fact that i was either swinging too hard, or swinging like a baseball bat. It wasn't on my lack of athletic ability. It was kinda funny, I felt myself trying to open up in the swing, when it should be kept closed. I blame that act on one odd thing, Discus. Too many sports with too many different swings. I was actually not too bad at putting and I even suprised Doug on one that I made. We didn't keep score, it would be too embarrassing, but on the last hole I managed a double bogey, sounds bad I know, but I was rather proud and intend to do better next time. Yes, there will be a next time.
