Fall News from Kevin



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. 🏌 👊 🏌

Best golfing regards,
