Having obtained a full handicap, Your Sincerely ( Y S ) has been transported into a new world - a green world of manicured turf, grass, ferns, bushes, shrubs,hedges, woods, trees, ponds, lakes, bunkers, etc etc that delight the eyes. Y S has also been recently acquainted with a wide variety of creatures - birds of all colours and sizes, monitor lizards ranging from a foot to several feet, grass snakes, bugs, ants, beetles, creepy crawlies ( that drop on you from the leaves ), tadpoles, frogs, toads etc etc. Hope to get some shots for you to see in my next blog.Like squash, golf can be played alone. It is you and your handicap. So, Y S is free from the hassle of waiting for friends. Well, if they do turn up, good enough. You go into the course in two, three or four.
When you think of hockey or football, you think of massive men decked out in tons of equipment, get sweaty and aggressive in the name of their respective sports. And then there is golf, the sport that most athletic men ( ahemmmm..) take up when they are on the off-season or retired. It is probably the most " chilled " sport out there, which begs the question - are golfers really athletes???
