Here Birdie, Birdie

Today, I spent the morning in really hot weather playing a round of golf with some fellow ministers. It was a good round.
Now I don’t play that much. An arthritic knee and not a lot of people that I know who play golf only allow me to play about 1-3 rounds each year. This was the second round I’ve played this year.
Well, today I scored my first birdie ever. It was a par 4, 317 yard hole. I came within about 50 yards on the drive, pitched it to the green and hit a 20 yard put for the birdie. I had never even parred a hole before!
On another hole, my first shot got on the green about 20 yards from the hole. I then 3 putted for a boggie. I kicked myself over that one, but I can’t be too greedy I guess. I also broke 100 for the first time. So all in all it was a good day of golfing. My knee, however, is paying the price. Thank goodness for a prescription.

There’s nothing like golf for a little addictive moment of victory even when you aren’t a great golfer.
