TIPS FOR CHRISTMAS AND GOLF
As the festive season approaches, it is worth keeping in mind a few rules relating
to golf during this time.
There will be times this Christmas when you’d rather be on a golf course than sitting next your Uncle laughing at bad jokes or hearing that well worn story one more time. For the sake of family harmony, marital bliss and securing those golf weekends away next year, here are a few suggestions concerning golf this Christmas.
My true love gave to me
Your nearest and dearest know just how much you love the game, so it’s not
unreasonable to think you may find a few golf-related gifts under the Christmas
tree. You may have even hinted that you need a new pair of golf shoes, a trip to Pebble would be nice or a dozen golf balls would always come in handy.
Be mindful of your own reaction if you don’t receive any golf gear though. This may just be an oversight on your family’s behalf, but it may also be a message that perhaps you are a little too obsessed with golf.
Don’t even think about playing golf on Christmas Day
With your new white driver unwrapped; the thought of an empty golf course on
Christmas Day may be a tempting one. On the list of “things you should never, ever do”, playing golf on Christmas Day is not that far behind planning a golf trip on your wedding anniversary.
Banish the thought immediately, put the driver in the bag and focus on carving up the turkey. You, your family and your future will be better for it.
Winter golf tip
Keep your golf ball warm! Golf balls don’t travel as far in cold weather. In
fact, you’ll lose about 3-5 yards, depending on air density, for every 10
degree drop in temperature. So, keep that ball in your pocket between
holes. Better yet put a hot hands hand warmer in there with it. Easier said
than done, but play smart! Don’t be afraid to hit an extra club – chances are
you’ll need it.
