While I’m not a golfer (at least not for the past 40 years), I had occasion to take two foreign interns from France to the course. Neither of them had any previous golf experience. My function was limited to driving the golf cart and pointing us towards the next hole and keeping score (I quickly abandoned keeping score cards however as we decided that “multiple mulligans would be allowed)

Practice - Learning Golfing

Practice - Learning Golfing

We started the students off on the ” practice driving range ” .. they hit a bucket of balls with drivers and irons to get some “method” to their swing. After 10 or so balls they began to get the motion down and cheering with glee when the ball went straight out into the range. We then moved over to the practice putting green and practiced for 15 minutes putting golf balls into the “hole” ..

Nick - Our Cart Guy .. GOLFING - Deer Run Golf Course Ocean City MDNow we were ready to begin the challenge on the 1st of the 9 planned hole golf outing. We were situated into a golf cart, I was given proper driving instructions and the golf cart was loaded with 2 golf bags, bottled water, digital camera and of course score cards/pencils and 2 wanna be golfers. Our cart guy ” Nick ” took care of bringing the cart out to us and was quite helpfull, friendly and pleasant (16 years old) ..

First Tee - Deer Run Golf Course Ocean City MDWe anxiously set up on the first tee! .. It was crunch time and now the experience begins! Swing – MISS – Swing – Miss – and more of that .. FINALLY both Tristan and Dalya hit the ball and got it airborne .. From there we scurried to the balls and more HIT AND MISS swings and finally again success and the little white balls began their journey to the 1st hole! It was fun and surely a challenge for a beginner on a golf course.
