    I've Went on the driving range plenty of times but never had the chance to play any holes.

    Bowling is an interesting sport, because I've noticed most bowlers don't branch out into too many other sports.

    I, happen to LOVE golf. I'm going tomorrow morning, actually. The problem is, in Texas it gets really hot in the summer, so you have to go early (7:30am tee time tomorrow), and we normally only play 9 holes in the summer, unless the temperatures stay cool enough to get 18 in.

    It's a very frustrating game for many people, but I've never seen it that way. I don't ever expect to be good at it. I just enjoy the scenery, the camaraderie, the laughs. If you golf with people who are on your level, everyone has fun, you just have to have a good sense of humor.

    On an 18 hole course, I can normally shoot somewhere between 93-98 with my lowest round ever being an 87 and my highest round ever being a 130-something.... I try to forget about that round.....

    The thing about owning a house on a golf course is....: EXPECT IT TO GET HIT!!!! It happens all the time. Don't get discouraged. If you're playing on a course nice enough to have houses on it, then just consider yourself lucky. When we play the country clubs that have houses, sometimes one of us will hit a house too. It happens. SO, we have some fun with it. If you have the balls to go in their yard and play your ball, we let you take 5 strokes off your final score. Fun times!

    Go Broncos!
