OK, first day of practice at Kapolei Golf Course...the picture on the left is the group I practiced with today. In the picture from left to right: Coach Nause, Sandra Haynie- LPGA Hall of Famer and World Golf Hall of Fame member; Cindy Miller- participant in the first Big Break for women on The Golf Channel; Val Skinner- multiple LPGA winner and current Golf Channel TV golf commentator.
It was a fun group, though Sandra only played 9 holes. Cindy, Val and I managed all 18 in a 5 hour round...play was very slow but I was just happy to be out in warm weather playing golf with my friends from the tour! When we arrived at the course I realized I had played an LPGA tourney here before I retired, so it was fun to get back out and see the course from a more relaxed vantage point. I've learned a lot since I retired and realize how fun it is to be a golf professional, paid to play golf...wish I'd had that revelation all those years ago when I was grinding away and not enjoying it so much!
OK, that's it for the day...I'm already anticipating another fun day at the course tomorrow!
