Top Golf...

Is where pac was yesterday. With her new sub gal pal. How nice t o interact with a sub
who understands exactly what you're going through!

After a couple of burgers, we rented our bay and started hitting balls. Playing a game like bowling. Where you hit ten balls in a row and get specific numbers when your ball lands in different sections of the net. Each ball comes out of a machine and has some sort of sensor inside of it...

So... you hit the ball, then look at the screen t o see how you did. With the machine saying things like "pat yourself on the back", "it's ok t o go for red", or pacs favorite was "your sneaky good"!

My friend had never hit a golf ball before. pac showed her how t o hold the club. And she was hitting the ball quite well after that. It really is fun once you start playing. Regardless, if you are a golfer. And why it's so popular. Three floors of hitting bays that can be utilized in any weather conditions. Cha Ching!

A bit pricey for two people is the worst thing about it. Another couple would have made the rate really cheap. And dealing with who don't give explicit instructions can be frustrating.

Next time she might just ride along with pac while she plays a round of golf. Where she can really appreciate the wonderful world of golf!

I miss playing golf. The days of walking 36 holes are gone. It's the one thing CFS makes me miss most.


pac369 replies on 3/4/2022 7:43 am:
I would miss it to if I had to stop playing...
Not sure what CFS refers to Ron?

I enjoy Topgolf but it is not a replacement for the real thing. Fun though. Glad you have someone local to commiserate with. Maybe she will give the links a try in the future.


pac369 replies on 3/4/2022 12:35 pm:
I agree Grey!
Never felt like I got into the flow
like when on the course...
It's still fun... Just not the same...

pac

It is wonderful to have found a "kindred spirit"

Perhaps , one day, she will take up the Game too ?

Anyhow, thanks for sharing this interesting topic and great pics

It really is awesome Jenny!
And so surprising how it came out of nowhere...

But the closer we get the more I know how special this friendship will be... Feel very lucky right now!

I like to watch golf on the television. As far as playing goes I will stick to miniature golf.


pac369 replies on 3/5/2022 6:56 am:
Ok rider...
I also enjoy watching golf on tv...
What's really amazing is when a pro hits a horrible
shot and I, as a player can relate to it, because the same thing happened to me...

No matter who you are golf will humble you...

I’ve never been to one. In the off season I could see going, but it’s just so darn expensive. For that price I could get one of those giant buckets of balls and hit the range for 1/2 a day of structured practice. Or for that price I could get 18 w/cart at a dog track and enjoy the whole afternoon.

I realize TG is not really geared towards “golfers”. It’s more an entertainment gig. Makes sense during the off-season if you just want to keep your swing, but I couldn’t see going during the regular season.

Fortunately for you pac, there is no off season down there. 🙂


pac369 replies on 3/5/2022 7:01 am:
I do hear exactly what you are saying K!
Like playing golf, there are deals to be had
with TG..
But as a player I felt a bit stifled in my swing. As the tee on the mat is not adjustable at all. So was not able to really hit my driver for fear I might damage it...

It was great for her though. It gave her confidence that she can hit the ball. But for me... The course or driving range is where it's at...

This turtle keeps reminding me of BLADE RUNNER. Do you remember the scene I am talking about? "If you see an upside-down turtle in the desert what would you do?" And then the guy asks, "What's a turtle?"

Please don't make me sad rider!
