Today Brody and Case finished their golf clinic at White Mountain Country Club with a 3 hole golf tournament. It was the first time they had actually played holes of golf. Usually they practice chipping, putting, etc, but never have they played holes for a score. Let me tell you, it was the cutest dang thing ever! After 3 holes of golf, Brody ended up with a score of 35 while Case had a score of 40. That's right, it took them about 13 swings per hole to get from the tee to the hole! Did I mention that they teed off 100 yards from the hole?! It was so funny! I couldn't believe how well they actually hit the ball. It was super fun watching them, especially since they were having so much fun!
Here were the scores for the boys 3 hole tournament. You can see Case's score on the bottom left and Brody's score on the top right.
O.k. This is a terrible picture of me, but I wanted you to see the look on my face when the coach was explaining the rules for the tournament. Here were a few: Whiffs count on the score, the kids are allowed only 1 practice swing before it counts on their score, parents may not score their own kids, parents are not to coach the kids, they are there to have fun, parents should use tally marks to keep track of how many swings the kids make. I was a bit worried, especially about the whiffs! Look at the Mom behind me, she is doing the same thing!!!
Brody sunk this putt! The gold metallic ball helped!
You can see from the location of the ball after Case's swing why it took 13 tries to get to the hole! Case loved his blue metallic ball. He actually didn't want to use it for the tournament because he was scared he wouldn't get it back!!
My two cute golfers and their proud Dad! What a fun day for us all!
Check out Case's practice swing. Great form Case!
Brody had a long putt to get the ball in the hole!
Even Ledger got in on the golf action. He got to hit balls after the tournament. Boy did he think he was cool! Maybe next year Ledger man!
Check out this long putt! It took Case a few tries but he did it!
There was no way I was going to walk 3 holes with the boys. Sugar, Ledger and I rented the golf cart to get us around the course! Luckily, Brody, Case and Jeremy rented a cart to get them around too!
