Hi Aas Gaard Golfpark and Hakadal Golfklubb,
Life is always about choices and a man has to do what a man
has to do.
At the end of last week I lifted the blocking for this
weekend that I had put in place on my instruction calendar that's visible on
the World Wide Web. Within a day I received telephones about the then available
time during the upcoming weekend.
A little bit of a choice for me – play the club championship
or take the instruction, play myself or make my members better by teaching
them, both juniors and the grown ups who have used lots of their hard earned
money in the clubs shop, restaurant and on instruction… and in the least make a
few thousand for the club in the process??
Generating money out of nothing is always the best for club.
That's where I come in and it's an easy choice.
It's always my members…always.
Of course it would be fun to play but I have my boy this
weekend as well, whom I haven't seen in two weeks and playing 36 on Saturday
takes over 10 hours…if I did that I wouldn't be able to see him almost at all
on Sat and very little on Sunday.
An easy choice. It's always family…always.
It's always nice to get questions from my members about
possible instruction either on the practice area or out on the course! The
great thing is that it seems like my members have for serious started talking
to each other about me, or about the positive help they receive from me and the
eventual positive progress they experienced.
Word of mouth. Big.
Super cool and in regards to making more of my members
better golfers, well, that's just good for everybody, good for business,
actually the community as a whole and of course the individuals themselves own
enjoyment of this wonderful game!
Job #1 is my members. Playing competitively can wait until
this winter and eventually a little next season if I am able to in regards to
my duties here at the farm.
The fall season is well underway, have seen more and more of
the usual suspects at practice this past week with the addition of a few new
faces..fun!
I am going to have to adjust the practice times for the last
month in regards to light in the evenings. We need to start up at least 30 min
earlier, maybe one hour earlier in a few weeks from today's date. I will make a
news article and post it both on the clubs website and FB.
Other than that, I would like to wish all the players who
are competing this weekend for the club championship good luck and I hope the
weather holds for everyone. As it turns out I'll be playing with some of my
members right after the last ball on Sunday. Cool! Maybe we'll see a bit of the
action…again super good luck is wished for all the brave who choose to try and
be club champion!!
Tonight, tomorrow and the days after are filled with that I
enjoy all the most…helping others enjoy this great game that has given me so
very much in my life so far, I want all who try this crazy game to love it and
be lifetime golfers! Ferdig snakket. 🏌 👊 🏌
