September Golf starts now!  I have a new flip video camera to use on the lesson tee…and I can email you your swing with comments!  A great addition.  I plan to play in the Western Montana PGA Championship at Rock Creek Cattle Company at the end of the month. Fun. And, I am riding my bike 30 miles in to Yellowstone and 30 miles back out (hopefully) on Sept. 25th with 350 other enthusiastic bikers!  Great Fall colors upcoming!

August Golf and Eagles!

Well, here we are moving right along into August.  We are looking at three good months of golf remaining.
So, I hope to see everyone out enjoying their time in the links!
I have a wonderful story to relate.  I was playing golf early Monday morning at Canyon River with three other pals.  We got to number 8.  There was a bald eagle flying overhead. We noted the eagle and watched it. It alighted on a telephone pole about 50 yards away and was watching us with its “eagle eyes.”  I had hit a great drive and had 125 yards to the pin.  I hit mynext shot with my iron pure, and watched, as the ball hit the green perfectly, took a few bounces and began its nice roll into the ………..cup!  Yes, I had an eagle with the eagle watching. It sure was something!  This is why golf is such a great game. Where else could something like this happen? Yes, keep on plugging away everyone, because you never know what lurks around the corner.  It is all summed up by the bumper sticker I saw a couple of days ago:  “Something wonderful is about to happen!”

Heck, why not?!

June golf with Ann Loughlin

June has taken off with a bang even though the weather is sometimes not cooperating. I just finished the Stevensville Junior Golf Camp and the Holland Lake Lodge Getaway is upcoming. There are still a couple spots available in that outing. We are staying at Holland Lake Lodge and will play Eagle Bend and Double Arrow. 

Big excitement as the U.S. Open begins tomorrow.  I have played Pebble Beach 5 times and one can expect to shoot 10 strokes over their average score!  However, it is as close as golf here in the US gets to paradise! 

See you on the tee!
