I can't believe I'm losing sleep over this!
I bit the bullet this past spring and joined a golf league.
It is a "social" rather than a "competitive" league. No handicaps, and very little prize money if any. One of
the members is on my Monday morning bowling team. She assured me the only
league rule is "don't talk when someone is swinging". That did turn
out to be the case. We do follow most of golfing general rules and etiquette. Each
week I may team up with whoever I want to.
The season started out terrible and I did consider quitting
the league as my golf was embarrassing, but the ladies are very encouraging so
I stuck with it. I've noticed that when I "ride" in a cart with
another golfer I don't do as well. If I walk with a push cart I am less
stressed and feel more in control. I also do better when golfing with a
different group each week then sticking with the same ones. Now that the season
is almost finished I'm please to report my golf has improved and while my final
score isn't the lowest I'm no longer the highest either. Most times I drive the
ball off the tee further than the group I'm with.
The league began the first Monday in May and ends the last Monday in August. A luncheon banquet is
scheduled for the last Monday in September and if necessary other Mondays in
September are for rain outs. So far there has been one rain out.
Here's my dilemma...The Monday morning bowling league begins
on the same day as the Monday morning golf rain date. I know my bowling buddy
that is also on this golf league will be golfing. But me - I'm not so sure. On
Monday September 17th do I drive to Bowlero or Brookfield Hills Golf course?
