Tee time

Jun 23, 2005 20:20

My hands, wrists, and my arms are in pain. It feels a little funny even typing right now. This morning I went with my brother to the golfing range called "Harry Putter" by Rutherford and Islington. (Unfortunately, I didn't see any wizards or witches.) Oh how I forget that I suck. After resting for a bit while gently rubbing the puffed up blisters ( Read more... )

Well, when we talked about it you seemed all negative about going to a driving range. I'm still game though.

How long were you golfing that you got BLISTERS from it?! Aiya.

well, i guess i did feel negative about.. going out, and stuff like that. i was in my depressing hermit mood. BUT i got all worked up from it today so what the hell.

haha...

blisters don't sound very fun. aren't you supposed to wear gloves anyways?

i can't even hit the ball. but who can blame me? the ball is so small it's easy to miss.

you usually wear one glove but my other hand seems to need a glove too T_T

i miss alot too hehe but it's fun when you actually _do_ hit it right

It's been a while since Ive gone out golfing.. but hey, I'd go. :D.
..and yes. I think I got like one blister the first time I went.. so its normal. :D

heh, are you holding the club properly, because if you're not, it'll hurt your hand into blisters and such (straining wrists etc) lol trust me, i know how that felt when i started. Don't worry though, the more you play, the better you'll get so keep practicing.

Yeah I'm always going to the driving range. We'll go to the Putting Tee, it's like 10 min from my house. Just call me up. I have extra tokens, too.

I have golfed for years and not once gotten blisters on my hand from it. You probably shouldn't try strangling the grip, and also you're probably trying to destroy the ball. A controlled swing is better than a ball destroying shot.

If you put too much power into your shot, you will 1) get sore body parts like your arms, or back. 2) blisters on your hand 3) and probably miss the ball half the time.

keep your head down and just do nice and easy swings next time your out at the range.
