We hosted 9 golf students at our second Saturday free golf lessons at the Amazon Golf Course from 10 till 12 noon. Join us for your free golf lessons next Saturday. Harry Kelly was the golf professor, assisted by Mike Collis and Margarita our course supervisor. I was impressed by the rate of improvement I witnessed today.

We learned a lot about golf today. Everyone was better at the end of practice than when we started.

The first half hour for the newest students was a classroom discussion about golf terminology, clubs, rules, and philosophy. Then they joined the others at the driving range. Harry taught them the proper way to hold the club and the stance, keep your eye on the ball on the tee, and follow though. There was visible improvment in the next half hour. Then we moved to the practice putting green. Well, putting is difficult. We need more practice, naturally.

We are gratified that so many young women came to the golf lessons at the Amazon Golf Course

Next Saturday we will spend more time on the driving range and practice putting green with the advanced students teeing off to the first green. Today Michael and Isacc, our star students, played the first hole several times after the lessons were over. They impressed me with their enthusiasm for learning the sport of golf. I know they will be good golfers if they keep practicing.

And who knows, you might even find romance on the practice putting green at the Amazon Golf Course
