Driving Range Info

Driving Range Close to Home

When the weather starts to turn nice in the spring, and my husband is missing, I always know where to find him. He doesn’t disappear very often without telling me where I can reach him, but now that he has a cell phone, he sometimes forgets that he needs to give me a heads up about his destination. Though there are many times when he might go to a driving range in the summer, it is like an obsession for him when springtime comes along. Perhaps for him it is proof that winter is truly behind us for the year and the warm weather is just around the corner.

Luckily you don’t have to drive very far from our house to find a driving range in our area. I think there are at least six of them within five miles of us. We live in a very small urban area, and there is a lot of room to play. Perhaps that is why you will probably find a drivingrange that is not far from your home no matter where you live. He spends a lot of time there, not that I mind. There are worse things he could be doing, and definitely more expensive things that he could find to do with his money.

Facts About Driving Range

I have gone to the driving range with him a few times, and we have even taken our daughter with us. She’s five, but she loves golf because he does. She likes to swing the club, and we decided to find a small club just her size and then take her to the driving range to see if she liked it or not. It took her a little while, but she was soon hitting the ball every time she swung. She did better than me, and I had spent more time on the driving range than she had. I know I’m a klutz though, and I’m glad to see that she isn’t.

Probably the best thing about the driving range is the price. You only have to pay for a bucket of balls, and you can take all the time you want to hit them. If there is a line of people waiting, you shouldn’t take your sweet time, but usually when we go to the drivingrange we don’t have to worry about that. Maybe it is because there are so many of them around here. I know this spring he will go there again, and I know that our daughter will want to go too. I don’t mind really, as long as I get to take my turn as well.
