Golf Clubs Lefty Used

Golf Clubs Lefty Used

How can I play golf with my son and not offend other players?

Here's the deal. I have always been interested in golf, but have never really played. Frankly, I am left-handed and borrowing left-handed clubs has always been a no-go. I recently found a cheap used pair of lefty clubs, snatched them up, and have started going to the driving range. My 8yo son is also loving doing this, but he is also a lefty and if adult left-handed clubs are hard to come by, then a child's is near impossible. We've been doing this for a bit now, and are getting to where we can start thinking about actually trying to play the game.

I want to take him to a golf course, but frankly we suck. I don't know any real etiquette for this, but I do understand that one of the biggest faux pas in golf is holding people up behind you. But we're never going to learn this unless we actually go out and play it. I don't want to be rude, but we really want this.

So how can I do this without offending other golfers and looking like complete fools?

If you live near a course that has a"First Tee" for kids I recommend it for your son.As to playing on the course,talk to the pro and find a time that there are the fewest people playing.Most likely it will be a weekday.Book a tee time for 9 holes and use cheap used balls so if they get lost you can just drop another one and go on.Don't look for them for long.Be aware of the other golfers and if they appear to be having to wait for you to get out of the way,waive them through.DO NOT KEEP SCORE.

There are plenty of famous left handed people. Sometimes lefties feel left out so I'm going to give you a nice list to chew on. Let's have some fun.

How about some left-handed presidents? Well, Barack Obama is left handed. You probably already knew that so let me expand the list. We've also got James A. Garfield (20th president), Harry S. Truman (33rd president), Ronald Reagan (40th president) and Bill Clinton (44th president). Not too shabby! And, there are more that I did not list.

There are other political folks that you might recognize too, in the world of the left. We've got Ross Perot, Col. Oliver Noth, Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Bill Bradley and even Benjamin Franklin.

Let's take a look at history. Who's really famous and left handed back in time? Joan of Arc, Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Charlemagne and King Louis XVI of France. So, the lesson is that being left handed can't stop you from being in politics. History gives us proof.

Now let's look at some famous left handers who were businessmen and industrialists. Both Henry Ford and David Rockefeller used their left hands. On a related note both David Letterman and Jay Leno are left handed. Even Richard Simmons (yes, that Richard Simmons) is left handed. But, he'll whip you into shape with either hand. Just ask him.

There are quite a few left handed bowlers. I remember this as a kid watching the PBA (Pro Bowlers Association) games that would run on Saturday. Here's a short list of famous lefty bowlers: Bill Allen, Earl Anthony, Steve Cook, Tish Johnson and Patty Costello.

While we're on the topic of sports, let's talk about basketball. Now, it doesn't matter much with basketball since it's more a two handed sport, but it's still good to know, don't you think? Here's that list: Larry Bird, Mark Eaton, Bill Walton, Bill Russell, Ron Kellogg, Bob Lanier, Dave Cowens, Wayman Tisdale and Manuel Zuleta. Or course there are many others as well.

Now, let's talk about you for a minute. If you're a left hander and you golf, you ought to consider getting a set of left handed clubs. Yes, they do have them. You just have to know where to look. Don't force yourself to be a right handed golfer.
