First Family Golf Game

Our kiddos have been taking golf lessons this summer, so it was perfect timing to try the Municipal Golf Course while on vacation at the Lake. They didn't keep score, and they played best ball. My husband and kids would tee-off, and which ever ball got the farthest, they would hit again from there. It was the perfect way to keep play moving, and not frustrate the kids. 

 We were pleasantly surprised that some of their balls went a fairly long distance from the Tee. It proved to be a good confidence booster for them both. Not keeping score helped with teamwork, and allowing them to pick and choose which holes to finish kept their interest and energy level. They played 9-holes.

We played in the evening and it was a gorgeous sunset against the hills. There were only a few golfers at surrounding holes, so we never felt rushed. We let the kiddos drive the golf carts a few times when we were away from the clubhouse. They were respectful - no damage - and they enjoyed the power of driving just as much as hitting their golf balls a fair distance.

I was really proud of their first golf game together. They did fantastic and we had a lot of laughter. What a fun night which ended at a Vineyard that served a Barbecue Dinner - very unique and very good!!
