Golf Itch

I am dyinggggg to play golf. But I need to get my clubs first. Grah.

Golfing Around

Signed up for Golf Clinic with Yicui and Caixia, and gosh, I never thought I would find golf..interesting.

HAHA.

We met up first in Harbourfront and had a walk around Vivocity. It's been so long since we last walked in mall man :S We went into Candy Empire:

I never paid attention to the items inside before, but this time round I really paid attention to the things inside:

So many snacks! Even found my childhood favourite, Freddo the Frog chocolate:

Deliciousss!!!!!!:

We took a cab down to Keppel Club, where we will be having our Golf Clinic at the driving range.

Ground floor:

Second floor where we have our session:

Somehow, being in the golf range, makes me feel very peaceful. Coz there isn't much noise, and it's all green.

HAHA.

Yicui, me, Caixia

This is after like 2 million shots, the only one that manage to put 3 of us in and still have the golf course as background.

HAHA.

And my golf club:

I was too shy to share one photo with it. Haha.

We had 2 Australian coaches, Samy and Grant. Samy is a middle-aged man while Grant is a hunky young one. Lol.

So evidently, I only managed a shot of Grant in action:

Haha.

I dunno if it's just my luck or I truly have a flair for golf. Including the 3 members from the Golf Club, we had 5 coaches in total. 4 of them had nothing to criticize about my posture and swing, and mentioned I had potential :S

Samy: "What's your name?"
Me: "Yu Hui."
Samy: "Hmm."
Me: "Yea that's about as Ang Moh as it can get."
Samy: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA."
*Samy stood back while I swing one*

Me: "I am having backaches, is it wrong posture?"
Samy: "No..and I have absolutely nothing to criticize about your posture and your swing. All I can say is, you should continue practising in your current state."
Me: "Oh. Erm thanks."
Samy: "You have potential. You make a good golf friend."
Me: "HAHA. Thanks man."

Same for the 3 members of Golf Club who mentioned I didn't make error at all despite a full swing.

Me: "Erm what's a full swing?"
One of them: "As in you go all the way back before hitting the ball."
Me: "OH."

I had a couple of bad shots also la, maybe it was luck.

My 6 seconds of fame:

I'm lucky to have Yicui filmed a successful shot. Haha.

And I think my whole posture look funny.

BUT, I'm really addicted to the "tuck tuck" sound produced when the club hits the golf ball. Haha.

I guess playing golf without the glove sure make a difference. I had successive bad shots during the last few balls because my hand hurt like crazy. So I decide to give the last ball a good one and put away the club.

And guess what?

I realised..a flap of skin was dangling off my index finger:
Photobucket
The pain didn't set in until a few seconds after realization -_-.

It was the kind of sharp pain that makes you very high. Hahaha.

I found a plaster in my wallet and attempt to stick the skin back:
Photobucket

I'm really surprised that golf can actually make you perspire so much. My goodness, I always thought it was comfort sports. Haha.

Our last shot before leaving:
Photobucket
When Yicui was the one who told us to do stupid poses, while she's the only one acting cute with the camera and having the most normal expression. Tsk tsk tsk

Hahaha.

Oh man, I want to play more golf. So frigging hooked to the "tuck tuck" sound.
