A few days ago, Blair and I were again invited to play in a fun scramble at Pine Grove Golf Course in Sudbury, Ontario. Bruce, my brother in law, extended the invitation to play in the Mine Mill Local 598 Unifor Retirees Tournament which we could not refuse. Gratefully, Bruce also invited Jack to play, thus reuniting the old team. As in our previous tournatment with these fellas, it was one of the more enjoyable rounds of golf I have played in some time. Bruce has already asked us to play next year and with all the stars aligning, we will be back!

This article is a follow on to my last post called Sharing Golf Knowledge – Part 1. It covers more knowledge I shared with Noah when we played last week. The crux of our discussions focused on developing a strong short game with which he could build. We played nine holes and in that time, we discussed how to build a strong short game foundation.
