My Golf Story

Then I will tell you my personal story. I started playing golf when I was in college, one day a friend from the college where he lived told me: “Why are not we going to give some balls?” – I looked at him with a surprised face and said ” Balls of what, to the bowling?

At that moment we were taking the car to the nearest practice court we knew, it was Somontes Golf and I wanted to start playing golf.

While we were in the car my friend was telling me what we were going to do, we will go to the field, rent some clubs and then with € 1 coins we took out a few balls.

In about 30 min we were already hitting balls without any sense with an iron 7 in the hands, which I did not care whether it was a 7 or 3 or a 14, it was just as bad.

There came a time when I even started to get pissed because  after 14 times trying to do what they called “swing” I could not hit the ball . My friend told me to take the club like that, bend a little and do not try to blow the ball … there was silence … I concentrated and hit my first golf ball like that.

What a  spectacular sensation ,  what an  adrenaline rush , what a moment to remember … yes, do not tell me you do not remember where you are and what shape your first golf ball, jajajaj do not laugh that the same thing happens to us all … we remember that moment as if it were yesterday.

The golf bug.

The following week I went two more days to give balls, the next 3 and the next was already in the store that I had recommended  ¨Castellana Golf¨  buying my first golf club, an iron 7 wilson pro-staff … I guess before the arrival of  dectahlon and the online stores of golf clubs  will have been the first the stick of many players.

The moment arrived when Iron 7 already beat him decently or I thought so, then I asked in the city where he lived if someone knew a golf course, at that time by the year 2000 there was a rustic field that still exists, I spoke with the owner to ask him how to play and he said:

Yes of course, you remember my friend from the beginning, at some point he told me he had handicap 17, I did not give importance because I was not very interested, I  just wanted to give 500 balls a day as far as possible and start playing golf soon as possible.
