Hole in One...Assisted

Okay. Trying out The Creeping Kid's first video post. Cross your fingers.



Yesterday was Kiernan's first foray into the world of golf. It was a playdate for the last day of winter break, and about ten five/six year olds showed up inspiring the mom who organized the affair to ask, "How long will it take 8+ little kids to play 18 holes of golf?"

We were figuring four hours. Or infinity. As it turned out, the answer was, 36 holes in 90 minutes. We had not taken two major factors into account:

1. The sheer amount of sprinting. Not only from hole to hole. But from shot to shot.

2. The fact that what they would be playing would be far closer to hockey than golf.

As you can see in the video, Kiernan got his first hole in one. With a little inadvertent help from his friend Oliver. And he only lost one ball to the water. Much better than my first round of golf. Or, let's be honest, any round I've played thereafter.

Oh well, if you've got it, you've got it.

A good time was had by all.

KMan has Pop's talent for golf. You will have to do a golf 3some sometime, maybe a 4some with Nana. You get the Dad Medal for venturing out with so many little boys wherever you went.

Needless to say, I loved seeing that and the idea we may play together some time! He can probably give me putting lessons!
