I signed up to take golf lessons at Klipper Golf Course, the golf course on Marine Corps Base which is supposed to have the best views. I’ve only had two lessons so far and we’ve used the putting green both times which is kinda away from the ocean. The KOSC (Kbay officer spouse club) set them up and there are five of us taking them.

We were learning how to chip today, on day 1 we learned how to putt.

He told us to focus much more on our swing than where the ball was going, which makes sense. My goal is to know enough that if I were ever invited to do a tournament, play with friends, or when my parents come out here I could at least hold my own and have an idea of what I’m doing. Jon’s a great teacher! There’s a lot to the game.

I’m glad I committed to taking this, it’s been a fun Saturday morning excursion that I think will prove valuable. I don’t imagine spending a ton of money on this, it seems we’ve been spending a lot of money on hobbies as of late, but who knows. I am wearing Brian’s MIT polo because I don’t have any collared shirts. I am going to buy one just to have.
