The royal sport

If there was anything on the idiot box that bored me the most....... it was Golf.

That was until I got into playing the sport at EME Golf club in Hyd.

In the beginning I was wondering what is the use of the stance, the different clubs, position and all. Can't a person play Golf using a single club rather than using Iron, Wood and all.

The actual game showed the difference. I was surprised at the difference each of the clubs produced. The stance seemed foolish in the beginning but it actually made all the difference. It was my first game and I was trying out my own stances but I could not make as much as a contact between the Club and ball. Surprisingly when I followed the coaches instruction - bent my knees a little, kept my left arm straight, eye sight fixed on the ball, bring down the club in a full swing not only did the club make contact but the ball soared well over 120 yards.

One of the boards on the course said - 'Millions are lost on the green and next to the green'. Before actually playing, I would have never believed that betting actually took place in Golf also.
