Family Golf …
Golf… a game that gives more than you could ever imagine… especially for a family!
Imagine a game where you can:
- Spend the entire day enjoying the outdoors in a relaxing environment
- Enjoy mother nature… the flowers, fresh air or those lazy turtles basking on the rocks
- Have all family members whack the ball regardless of their skill
- Have your oldest child play match play against her parents… and enjoy some great belly laughs by all
That is the power and opportunity when you play the game of golf.
Last week, the Black family enjoyed some of this Family Golf… and had a fantastic time. Mom, who was a great sport, entertained the kids with her whiffs of the ball and sideways shots. Ally, the little prodigy beat mom and dad in a match play/alternate shot game. And Katie, my wild child, got her exercise by running up/down the hills and taunting the turtles.
A few keys for maximizing the fun of Family Golf:
- Pick your time of day – go to the golf course late in the evening when it is less crowded
- Limit the holes – don’t try to play 9 holes… 3 holes may be the right amount, just monitor the situation to ensure everyone is having a great time
- Play a game – make up a game to get everyone involved… our favorite game is some alternate shot games… where everyone can hit a few on each hole
Take advantages of the great fruits of golf… build some memories with your children… and I will promise you that you will have one of the best days! Oh, I almost forgot… there is nothing better than the winner(s) of Family Golf celebrating with a Coke Float!
Enjoy your day!
