Of course, we only played 3-holes, but still!
After a few trips to the driving range, Emma thought she was ready to give her golf skills a test on a real course.
We took advantage of some beautiful weather and a special that Pleasant Valley Golf Course offers for beginners (3-holes for $6), and hit the links!
All in all she did pretty good – some good shots and some bad shots (kind of like me). By our count she shot about a 40 on her 3-holes for her first time out.
Here’s a picture of one of her best shots of the night. She nailed a 5 iron over the creek and hit it so well it landed up the hill in the sand trap! If you look closely you can seen her ball circled in blue.
By the end she said she wanted to keep playing some more holes and go back every week, so I guess that’s a good sign. Probably didn’t hurt that the $6 included a cart. (Don’t get too used to the cart thing, Emma, but I’m sure we’ll be back!)
