So Stanman invited me to play golf with a couple friends today. Yes, the new file server story will have to wait for another day. We went to play at Jefferson Park Golf Course<\/a>. Met up with Joe and Saran and the park and met a new friend of theirs: Dhyanesh (I hope I spelled that correctly).<\/p>\n

Do note, the last time I played golf was a many years ago with SueOn, Antegra and DNG. We had gone to the golf course next to Almansor Park and played at the driving range. Since we were on a higher elevation, all my balls basically went straight forward and down. Haha. I did pop a few, but the rest was pretty much a 5-10ft gain and went down. Of course I was also never able to control which direction the ball went.<\/p>\n

So this would be my 1st time playing in the course. We started off at the driving range and got a brief lesson by Stanman on how to hold the club and how to swing. He also gave me a brief explanation about the different clubs. My balls did manage to go up now, but they always sliced to the right. So to compensate that, I tried to aim for the left, but you know what happens when you do that. The ball goes left. Haha.<\/p>\n

Anyway, we played 2 rounds on the Short 9 (all par 3 courses). It was actually rather fun, though apparently I was holding the club too tightly and blisters appear to be forming. Saran lent me a glove and that was much better during the 2nd round.<\/p>\n

My driving got to be pretty decent. I was pretty much able to get on the green in about 2 shots (minus some mistakes). I even got a birdie chance twice (where I landed on the green in 1 shot – 1 was even a 136yd course). My putting is horrible though. I can’t seem to control the strength of my putts and they always zoom across the green back and forth.<\/p>\n

My final scores for the 2 rounds were 62 and 55 (a 7pt improvement during the 2nd round). Par would be 27, so yah, I’m pretty terrible.<\/p>\n

UPDATE<\/strong>: Turns out I was slightly roasted (in other words, sun burnt). After entering the shower, I noticed the skin on my forearm stung a bit when hot water hit it. It wasn’t painful, but I did feel something. Looking at it, my forearms were a bit pinkish. After inspecting everywhere else, my neck was a bit pink as well as certain parts of my face. Didn’t expect that I needed sunblock on such a mild day. Oh well, I applied aloe vera just in case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
