09.07.24 | Nice. Been playing for a decade now, it's such a great escape and a nice way to hang with buds. One of my regulars always jams Steely on the course |

09.07.24 | I was the AGM for two golf courses for 4 years. That was a fun time. Then covid happened and I moved on from reduced hours. |

09.07.24 | Also grew up on golf as a kid and was golfing by 6 or 7 years old. Had a football field in my backyard and learned to hit 100 yards out that way. |

I’m broke as fuck, but have prioritized money I would normally spend on eating out and booze into a weekend golf fund instead. That’s like hating music because you can’t find a way to afford studio time yourself. |

09.09.24 | Played a round with an old high school friend hadn’t hung out with in 15 years today, was a great chance to catch up and laugh at how bad we both played. Another round with my dad tomorrow, who is normally busy at work, but took the day off to connect. Crazy what some balls, a bag of clubs, grass and fresh air can bring into your life |

09.09.24 | I play a lot of golf. In the UK, at least, it can be surprisingly affordable, even around London. Usually it's between £15-25 (midweek after 3pm) or £20-35 (weekends) |
Jash
09.09.24 | A lot of 9 hole Par 3 courses in and around my town, typically $20-25 for 9 holes with a deal for a second 9. The local real deal courses go from $45 and way up for a round of 18. We have one of Canada’s top rated golf courses on the island, not sure what the cost is, but the guy I played with today went earlier this year and it’s on my bucket list for next summer |
Jash
09.17.24 | Played 9 with my work friend today, brought a lady who was going to play behind with us. First hole she said “crap” after a bad shot, then immediately said “I’m so sorry, I try not to cuss”. By the third hole she’s drinking Fireball and smoking cig’s non-stop. Told her my name on the second hole, she called me about 4 different J names by hole 4, then just referred to me as J for the rest. 8/10 day, falling in love with my 6 iron lately |

Golf takes time man like everything worth while. Keep playing with mates and hit the range. You’ll get better. It’s a great sport.
I suck at it but if you’re ever in Denver. Hit me up |
