Good luck at Pebble. That is my uncle’s favorite course. Maybe I should say my crazy uncle’s favorite course. At age 86, he hit a milestone by carding his 10,000th round of golf. Since his first round, he has kept every scorecard and notebooks recording swings with comments about things to improve.
He keeps telling me that it’s still not too late for me to take up golf. He didn’t get his first hole-in-one until he was 74. He picked up his second at 76. And he claims that every year it gets easier to score a round that’s under his age. He has done that more than 70 times. Now that he is pushing 90, he still can hold his own with golfers half his age. Monday, his Ventura County Saticoy Country Club re-opened its course. Uncle Bob was the first to tee off.
BTW, he is also a Sun Devil. He played baseball and basketball at ASU in the mid-50s. The Red Sox offered him a contract.
