Well we did it, even though I couldn't find my friends at the bus stop, or the market, somehow we all ended up together at the golf course and played. It was situated near a chateau, so it was nice, but the course wasn't great. It's nice to say I've played in France though..and I was able to rent a set of Cleveland clubs, really nice 2009 model Launcher driver, irons, hybrids, great clubs! Obviously after a month off (as you can see in the picture) I didn't put them to great use, but we had a good time. I played with Keith, my friend from CMU, and Adam, my friend from Canada, and we walked 9 holes in a little over 2 hours, so it was fun. Let's just say that it isn't always easy convincing yourself of hitting a shot when you don't know the yardage..that meter to yard conversion was something we had to deal with the whole time..obviously a 130 meter par 3 doesn't play to 130 yards..remember this if you hit the links in France I have a yardage book from the place and a souvenir ball, plus some extra balls that I didn't lose that will be put to good use for the 2010 season! .
