Even Texas heat can’t slow their love of golf

Summer tends to be the busiest time of year for golf tournaments and this summer hasn’t been any different.  But last week, one of my high school golf teammates, my younger brother and I finally had the pleasure of working with some enthusiastic young golfers. They had already completed a full morning group lesson and were set to play nine holes later that afternoon with First Tee. Yet, even in the intense Dallas heat, their youthful energy was clear as they joined us for drills and putting practice. We focused on some key skills and chatted about their aspirations in the sport. It was truly inspiring to spend time with them and witness their growing love of the sport!

Helping Kids Learn Golf Through Technology

Today, my golf coach offered me the chance to volunteer at our school’s summer indoor golf camp. My role was to supervise a group of elementary school students, making sure that they followed the drills assigned by the coach, took turns hitting balls, and taught them golf terms related to the simulator, such as APEX, Launch Angle and etc. Unlike the driving range or chipping area, the indoor golf camp offered very different experience for them. It was cool to see how quickly the little kids engaged with the technology. I truly believe that the numbers provided by the simulator help kids or any beginners understand the game better.
