Today I played with Brian and Shawn at Birkdale Golf Club. I sound like a broken record when talking about my golf game but I can’t putt worth a damn. My next lesson will certainly be on my speed control. I shot a 97 and considering my poor putting that’s not so bad.
Birkdale is a nice course and very affordable. If you are on the southside of Richmond it’s worth a round.

I took my first golf lesson this past week from Bobby Lopez and what a huge difference it made on the course. I struck the ball really consistent which in the two years I have been playing hasn’t been the case. Unfortunately my score didn’t reflect it very much because I putted so poorly.

I was given Ben Hogan’s Five Lessons The Modern Fundamentals of Golf to read. The book was written in 1957 and from what I’ve heard is still the first book a golf professional will recommend to a new golfer. I will report back after reading but I feel confident in saying it should be a good read or it wouldn’t be getting recommended in 2009.

Bobby Lopez offers high quality golf instruction with video analysis at a price any golfer can afford. Every day but Sunday Bobby gives lessons at the Patterson Avenue Putt Putt in Goochland, VA. He is an ex-PGA Golf Professional and former Touring Professional on the European Tour.
For $19 I got a 45 minute lesson with video analysis. It was really worth the money for any golfer.

Today I played Sycamore Creek and shot an 89. I had never broken 100 before so this is a huge deal.
