Hitt’n the links
This winter has been a particular brutal winter, just didn’t seem to end. Finally, some decent weather. Yesterday, was absolutely gorgeous, and I wanted to get out and do something. So, I suggested to Mrs. NakedPaulToast, we go out and do something.
“Are the driving ranges open?”, she suggested. I called, and they were.
Not only was the range packed, people we’re golfing. The course was still wet as hell. We both we’re hitting the ball great. So I decided I was coming back Sunday (today), to get a round in. Mrs. NPT wasn’t interested in slopping around in a marshland, but I didn’t care. Neither would my brother in law.
Was thrilled how well I played for my first time out. All the proper tees we’re roped off, with temporary tees. This effectively took 10-20 yards off every hole, seemed like a bit of an edge. Didn’t turn out to be, because there was no roll. On some of the loftier shots, the ball would plonk straight into the ground, embedding itself fully into the the fairway.
My feet were absolutely soaked through, I didn’t care. It was great to be out again. I plan on playing a lot this year.

Golf eh? I was never very good at it. It takes me forever to get the ball through the windmill.
