A bit ironic really...
I've worked in the golf industry for 7 years, including 3.5 years at
PXG (PARSONS XTREME GOLF) speaking to golfers every day, helping customers and accounts with their clubs, and spending years surrounded by the game.
Yet I've never actually learned to play it myself. Last night was the first time I've gone along with the intention of properly learning.
A friend and I joined a ladies-only taster session with
The Caddy Club in Plymouth and had such a good evening. It was a relaxed and welcoming environment, and a great way to get started.
A huge thank you to
Sammie Hortin-Giles for all the tips, advice and encouragement. A few small changes and suddenly things started to click.
If you're someone who's thought about giving golf a go but isn't sure where to start, I'd definitely recommend checking out what The Caddy Club are doing. Through their partnership with PXG, you don't even need clubs to start, with PXG sets available to hire so you can focus on enjoying your first experience with the game.
And perhaps the biggest achievement of the evening... my own PXG clubs finally made it out of the garage.
Although judging by the fact the plastic is still on the legs of my golf bag, that probably tells you everything you need to know about how much use they've had until now.
Here's to finally experiencing the game from the other side ⛳
