The game of golf

I have a friend in our congregation that likes to play golf and has invited me to one of the golf courses here in San Diego to play along with some other friends. It's been awhile since I last swung a golf club and so I would like to get a little practice before I go out with the friends so I don't embarrass myself. Golfing is a game of precision in order that you will hit the ball the furthest with the best accuracy in getting the ball to the hole in the least amount of swings of the golf club. It also helps to have a good set of golf clubs  Playing golf for the first time can really make you nervous since you don't want to look like your an amateur but believe it or not, there are other amateurs playing on the course that you may not know about but after swinging the club a few times you will gain the confidence needed to improve your game. I'm sure there's a lot of programs out there that one could use to help improve his/her game but I don't want to invest a lot of time and money since I don't have a lot of time to be enjoying golf every week. I really need to sit down with someone and have them explain to me the basics of all the golf drivers first before I get into some serious golfing game.

I'm interested in playing golf. I once had an opportunity to play the game in Playmobil Park but chose to let my kids play and just take pics of them.

My uncle learned how to play golf because he needs to for business purposes. All his clients love the sport so they do meetings over golf.

I have never tried golfing. Although I have in a few times watched my then boss playing it and I think it will take some time for one to be able to learn the game.

My uncle played golf and he thought my brother to play too, and this is now his favorite hobby and bonding moment for him and his friends. I myself never even tried it, coz I don't want to stay under the sun for too long.. lol..
