65 - Hello, Hello, It's Good To Be Back...

As you may have noticed there has been a lack of activity on this blog for a while, the reason being that the closest I have been to playing golf recently is thrashing my mates on Tiger Woods 09 for the Playstation 3 (brilliant game by the way). A combination of a knackered ankle and lousy weather has been enough to keep me away from the wretched game…but now I’m back.

With my tendons/ligaments starting to feel like their old self again (after my drunken spill in Liverpool city centre just before Christmas) I’m going to start playing once more in the hope of being a bit better in time for the summer. The hope is to be hacking my way around grubby municipals at least once a week as I strive to become the first Open winner to come from Kirkby.

My plan is to get down to the driving range a couple of nights a week to ease myself back into the game, contact a Pro to arrange some proper lessons, develop a repeatable swing, get my arse down to the golf centre at Fiddlers Ferry and buy the Mizuno MX-200’s I’ve been drooling over for the last six months, join a golf society and then spend one morning a week swearing my head off as I send shot after shot into the rough.

Oh aye, that sounds like a decent plan, I’ll be amazed if it pans out that way though… I’m almost certainly going to join the same golf society that my mates Richie and Terry are in (I’m not actually sure of it’s name, something to do with Woolton or summat) and I might be able to rope in a couple of other new members in the shape of Lucky and Alan. Who knows, my brother might even turn up!

As ever I will keep you all up to date via this little corner of the Internet (that is on the verge of a make over incidentally) and I will fill the gaps with rubbish I have found on other sites or in Golf Whine Monthly. Hello, hello, it’s good to be back…
