Watch Out Tiger!

On Saturday, May 31, Josh (almost 14), Jacob (12), Daniel (5) and I went to Fore Lakes Golf Course in Taylorsville. Michael couldn't come because of an injury he obtained while doing back flips off of the swing out back. Daniel had only 'golfed' around the yard--occasionally smacking the siding or the street (fortunately no cars or other houses) with the golf ball...he likes the real ones better than the whiffle balls. Here is a video clip of his first ever tee shot on a real golf course (by the way, Natalie taught him how to line his feet up). In the video we're uploading, the quality of it makes it difficult to see the ball roll down the fairway. But trust me, it did just that!



The only clubs in his bag were a sawed-off-regripped 3 wood and a putter. Most of Daniel's shots were pretty straight and down the fairway. Towards the end of the round, Daniel was getting pretty confident. Josh is pretty good also, but had a couple of rough shots. To which, Daniel commented, "Josh, maybe you need to learn to hit the ball." I had to remind him to be nice. I guess, when you're good, you have a right to talk smack. We all had a great time!
