Receiving The Gift Of Golf

Over the weekend, I was given the opportunity to receive two sets of left handed junior clubs. My wife was looking a local Facebook group and a generous person was giving away the clubs. I jumped on the opportunity because I am planning organize a local junior day or camp in 2023. The challenge is finding a good practice area that will allow for all aspects of learning, but that is a challenge for another day. For now, I am so grateful that the previous owner graciously offered up the clubs because it helps to flush out my other clubs have in my inventory.

The left handed junior sets are kind of rare. When I was offered the two sets….for free….I jumped at the chance to add them to my collection. I am looking forward to using them this summer. Hopefully, I can set something else.

How lucky am I that someone offered to give me two sets of clubs so I can pay it forward. It is important that I share my good fortune by trying to introduce golf to some young athletes. Who knows, there might be a grateful golfer in the group.

With the holiday season upon us, I am grateful for the new to me clubs and look forward to using them this summer.

The Grateful Golfer Being Grateful

We have talked about gratitude quite extensively at The Grateful Golfer. I believe it is the cornerstone to great golf, however golf is not the only thing being grateful enhances. I always try to improve my 3 foot space around me every day. I think it is important to leave a situation, place, or encounter in better condition than when I found it. This tall task is sometimes very difficult, but I believe it is a worthy cause to pursue whenever possible.

To this end, I do find it difficult to ask for help because I sometimes feel that I am imposing on others or being a bother. However, I have learned over the past 10 years or so, that it is important to ask for help when really needed. As many of you know, I asked for help just two days ago. I was astounded by what I received!
