And HE is the WINNER!

It has really been two full summers that Scott has NOT golfed very much at all.  With spending all weekdays building the house, he was often too tired to play on the weekends.  But now, he is back into it full swing!!  When we were in AZ, he had some lessons and practiced every day.  And it paid off...he played in the final tournament of the season (that is before all the 'snow birds' head home for the spring and summer).  It was called the Men's Three Club Tournament.  So apparently you get to choose only three clubs and that is all you get to take out with you to play the round of 18  holes.  I don't know too much about these clubs, but for Scott, he did bring his putter and then two other random clubs.  And he actually won!  That did a lot for his 'mental' game and feeling like he could get back into it again!  He said, "I haven't played this well in 20 years"!!  WOW!  I am glad that he has this activity to keep him busy and that allows him to do something he loves to do!  There was a time when he was way better than son-in-law Jamie, then with a lot of coaching from Scott, Jamie improved his game.  However Scott always...ALWAYS beat him with a better score.  The last couple of years there would be a time or two when Jamie actually won the round.  I think that might have been a bit depressing for Scott.  However he does understand that he is 60 and Jamie is 34...so there you go!
