Henry's First Golf Outing

Less than one month until his sixth birthday, Henry made his 18-hole golfing debut at the Raccoon Hills Golf Club in Kent, Ohio.

It was a roaring success!


The fine folks at the 'Coon made sure to provide Henry with his own small-fry sized 5-wood. Henry sees no need to use multiple clubs.

He drove with the 5-wood (literally), he worked the fairway with it, he chipped with it and he putted with it.

A true professional one club golfer. He was a hitting machine.

The best part was that Henry and I got to spend the morning with Uncle Bill who proceeded to blast 300 yard drives while "picking up" the many duffs and dribblers that Henry and I put out to pasture.

Good times.

In case you are wondering about the above picture, that small figure in the center of the picture is Henry taking a bathroom break on Hole #13. All I had was my Palm Treo to take the pictures.

I was kicking myself for forgetting the good camera, especially when the Hankster went Full Monty in the woods.

Funny stuff.

Nothing quite like your bare-assed son relieving himself in front of the flora and fauna of Kent, Ohio.

Kid's got quite a future.
