summary: you bring Daniel on the family vacation
a/n: thanks for the request!
masterlist part one
——————
You invited Daniel to the annual winter family vacation, this year to a beautiful beach in Fiji. Lance has finally just come around to the idea of you and Daniel. It’s also Daniel’s first time meeting your mom, Chloe, and her husband Scotty.
“I’m actually a little nervous,” Daniel says as you board one of your families private jets from Australia, opting for a take off time that will have you landing in the morning.
“I promise there won’t be a repeat of the dinner, just be a little more careful than usual since they haven’t met you yet and you’ll be fine,” you sit in the chair across from your boyfriend.
“I can handle it, for a week of relaxation with my girl,” he smiles at you, “and getting to see you in a bikini,” Daniel winks, never missing an opportunity to turn something dirty.
“If you want to see that all you have to do is ask, honey badger. I hope you brushed up your golf skills too, because Dad will probably want you to go golfing with them, and before you ask, no I won’t be there for you to stare at in a skirt,” you tell Daniel, one step ahead of him.
“How do you feel about joining the mile high club?” Daniel asks, his lips close to your ear once you’ve taken off and the pilot turns off the seatbelt light.
“I think it’s a good thing this is an overnight flight,” you reply, heart beating faster.
“Be a good girl for me and go back to that bed made up just for us,” Daniel instructs, the air thickening between you, so you say the one thing that will mess with him.
“Yes, daddy,” you smirk, moving towards the back of the plane where a bed is made up from the couch.
The pilot wakes you up before descent with an announcement, you scramble to get back into your seat and buckled.
“It’s beautiful,” you gasp as you look out at the island.
“Not as beautiful as you,” Daniel compliments, your cheeks flame.
“Danny, shut up,” your laughter fills the plane. It’s not too much longer before you deplane and a short ride gets you to the rented villa.
“Y/n! And you must be Daniel, welcome to the villa, I’m very happy you made it,” your mom greets you with a hug. Daniel goes for the handshake but your mom hugs him anyway. She still comes on the family vacation despite your dad remarrying. His new wife, Raquel, did not join this time, busy back home.
“Thank you for having me, I hope I’m not intruding,” Daniel says, he’s not always the rakish Australian that you love.
“Of course you aren’t, come in, breakfast is almost ready,” your mom shows you your room first, so you can drop your luggage and change before breakfast.
You opt for a bikini covered by a tee and linen shorts, Daniel goes off of your vibe, wearing something he would back home. The best part about the villa is that all the bedrooms are separated from the main living space and yours happens to overlook the beach with its own private patio.
“We’re on vacation, no need to dress fancy unless it’s a special dinner,” you grab his hand and drag him down to the kitchen table. “Sit, I’ll grab us coffee and food,” you smile, he just follows your lead.
“Daniel seems like a nice guy, Dad spoke kindly of him,” your older sister, Chloe says, sliding up beside you.
“The only thing Daddy doesn’t like is his age. Lancie was mad at me for a while, I guess Danny is his rival,” you tell her everything that you’ve said over the phone before.
“Well you look happy, that’s enough for me,” she hugs you.
“How was the flight here?” you ask, waiting for the coffee to finish brewing.
“Good, poor Lance is the only one who doesn’t have a partner here, but it was a long flight. We only got here an hour before you. How was yours?” Chloe wiggles her eyebrows.
“Very nice, shorter than yours because we left from Australia, but I can say that I am a part of the exclusive club. Don’t tell Daddy, he will actually kill Danny,” you look at her and she just smirks.
“Scotty and I did the same thing on that plane, who am I to judge?”
“Girls, once the coffee is done help me carry in the food,” your mom tells you both.
“You take the coffee in, I’ll help Mom,” you tell Chloe, who doesn’t argue. You follow behind her with plates of food, setting them on the table and taking your seat between Danny and Lance.
“Morning, Y/n,” Lance greets you with a tired smile.
“Morning, Lancie,” you take a sip of the coffee Chloe poured you. Breakfast isn’t too eventful, just quiet chatter as everyone is still a bit tired from the flight.
“I’m going to go sleep a little bit, you are welcome to join me,” you tell Daniel, who happily follows you back to the bedroom. You make sure to set an alarm so that you don’t sleep longer than a couple hours, and it doesn’t take you long to fall asleep, the warm ocean breeze combined with Daniel’s superior cuddles knocks you out quickly.
You spend the rest of your day lounging on the beach, catching up with your sister and mom. Daniel is also on the beach, but he’s talking racing with Lawrence, Lance, and Scotty, even though they all promised that they wouldn’t.
As the sun sets, you all sit down for dinner, prepared by the private chef service that is a part of the villa rental.
“Will you pass me the water, Daddy?” you ask your dad, slightly kicking Daniel as he seemed to start reaching.
“Here you are, sweetheart,” it’s a relief that no one noticed Daniel’s reaction. Once you pout your water, you give Daniel an unimpressed look to which he just grins. You would do anything for that smile.
The next couple days are extremely relaxing, spent swimming in the pool, playing on the beach, and a lot of sex. Daniel couldn’t help the last part, have you seen yourself? You are an absolute goddess, plus your sun kissed skin from all the time spent outside, completely irresistible. You felt the same way, the tropical air making his curls bounce, his tan skin and toned abs, you could jump him anytime.
On the fourth day, Lawrence takes the guys golfing and your mom takes you and your sister to a spa to gossip and relax.
“So, when are you joining the married couple club?” Chloe asks as the three of you are in your massage.
“I’m not sure, Daniel is really focused on getting his career back on track, plus it’s nice to just follow him around the world and not be planning a wedding. If it’s meant to be, it will happen, but it’s still pretty early in the relationship and I am a lot younger than him,” you say, not concerned about holding your thoughts back.
“Honey, that doesn’t matter. If it’s right, it’s right. I haven’t seen you happier with anyone else and the two of you look at each other like you are the only ones in the world. Plus from what I’ve heard you tell your sister, you have a very healthy sex life,” your mom adds to the conversation and you lift your head a little to look at her.
“Mom!” you let out a scandalized gasp.
“It’s natural, it’s a good thing. Just wrap it before you tap it,” she brushes it off, savoring the spa experience.
“Scotty and I have been talking to Lance and Daniel. Lance has said nothing but good things about Daniel and Daniel cannot stop telling us about how much he adores you,”
“I would marry him if he asked, all I’m saying is that there’s no need to rush into it,” you defend yourself, putting an end to the conversation.
“Sir, I would like permission to marry your daughter. I’m not going to ask yet, I think it’s better to wait until we’ve been together for a little longer, but your daughter is the one for me. Y/n is perfect in every way and I want to make her happy for the rest of her life,” Daniel says to Lawrence as they stand off to the side, watching Scotty and Lance tee off.
“No,” Lawrence says, wanting to see the drivers reaction.
“I respect that sir, but I do think that Y/n wants to marry me eventually and if that will make her happy then I will marry her despite your wishes,” Daniel sets his jaw, trying to think where he went wrong. Lawrence didn’t see him make a move to grab the water the other night, did he?
“I’m kidding, son. You have my permission, but if you mess it up, I will end your racing career,” Lawrence smiles, happy that his baby girl is happy and found a life partner.
“Thank you, sir. I wouldn’t expect less,” Daniel breathes a sigh of relief.
When the guys get back to the villa, they spot the girls on the couch, wrapped in light blankets, watching old Disney movies.
“You guys took relaxing to heart. I should’ve joined you instead,” Lance quickly makes his way to couch, squeezing in between his siblings.
“Do you girls want wine?” Lawrence asks, an amused smile on his face.
“Yes, Daddy,” you and Chloe purposefully say in unison, watching Daniel and Scotty restrain themselves at the last second.
“Boys, come help me out,” Lawrence tells Scotty and Daniel, not noticing their reactions.
The next day, you, Daniel, and Lance join Chloe and Scotty on a guided hike. Lance, being the only single one, is relegated to photographer unless it a a group photo that the tour guide offers to take.
On the last day, there is a rain storm, so you spend the day inside playing card games and reading. Like always, you never want to leave, even if you are going back to Monaco.

Step by step instructions to Choose the Right Golf Club for You!
Regardless of whether you are considering playing golf just because or you're a prepared ace preparing of your next golf trip, picking the correct golf clubs is critical to your exhibition. Utilizing the correct clubs can change the manner in which you play on the fairway and assist you with diminishing your impediment drastically. Be that as it may, which golf clubs would it be advisable for you to purchase? What would it be a good idea for you to search for while picking your golf clubs check here.
Whatever your capacity, regardless of whether you are getting one club or a full set, the sheer volume of clubs available can be overpowering.
Golf Club Essentials
Regardless of whether totally new to the game, or a hitting the fairway fan, you should consider similar six things when attempting to pick the correct golf clubs.
Take your timeThe sheer volume of golf clubs available is sufficient to befuddle the most experienced golf professional.Depending on your capacity and spending plan, purchasing another golf club can be a huge speculation, so it's imperative to do your examination and not settle on any unconstrained choices.
Disregard the name
On the off chance that you routinely watch European Tour occasions, it's anything but difficult to figure purchasing similar make and model as your preferred experts will assist you with scoring admirably on your golf holiday.By all methods, utilize this understanding to assist you with picking your clubs, yet be happy to attempt to test different brands as well. As golf club innovation has progressed, producers have focused on various players while making the most recent models.From body type and sex to state of being and capacity needs, center around the clubs that take into account your prerequisites and not the name. All things considered, it's your score that matters.
Hold Thickness
The thickness of the hold can massively affect your swing. A hold that is too slight can prompt golf players having huge hand activities driving into the swing. Be that as it may, too thick a grasp will limit your hands and have a similarly destroying sway.
What does the correct grasp look like?The appropriate grasp should let you hold the club utilizing your center and ring fingers of your left hand with next to no contacting the cushion with the thumb. In the event that your finger doesn't contact your thumb, it's an indication that the grasp is too huge.
The Shaft
Albeit self-evident, getting the right length of shaft is a major thought when purchasing golf clubs.Key contemplations to check are your tallness, body type and physical strength.As an overall principle, taller players for the most part need a more drawn out shaft to play at their best.In expansion, you ought to likewise consider the pole flex and its appropriateness to your swing.Selecting a pole too hardened will cause lower ball flight and lost separation, while a pole too delicate can bring about expanding and, once more, misfortune in separation.How might you judge if the pole flex is right? Shafts too hardened normally make you cut the ball to the privilege while shafts too delicate snare your ball fly to one side.Space An indispensable estimation, the space, or space edge, alludes to the point shaped by a line running down the focal point of the pole and the essence of the club.
Estimated in degrees, a golf club with a moderately low space, for example, 3 iron sitting at 21–23 degrees, will cause the ball to go farther than one with a higher space. On the other hand, a golf club with a high space, for example, a 9 iron sitting at 45–48 degrees, will bring about the ball rising and sliding into the air on a more extreme edge.
You can pass judgment on the space by the amount of the essence of a club is calculated upward or how much the head of the face is calculated away from the pole. Outwardly, a clubface with a further extent of space will have all the earmarks of being all the more on a level plane calculated contrasted with that of one with a lower degree.
The clubhead
In the event that you need to benefit as much as possible from your golf club, having distinctive measured clubheads can be a genuine preferred position. Most brands offer norm, fair size and curiously large heads for their golf clubs and your decision of clubhead size is fundamentally subject to your experience level.
For the most part, the bigger the club head, the more absolution your swing has. In spite of the fact that you can cause a helpless hit and still to accomplish a decent outcome with a larger than usual head, these are regularly hefty and difficult to control.
Golf Clubs for Beginners
It's anything but difficult to become involved with the underlying eagerness of beginning another game and purchasing the best golf gear, yet learners beware.Golf clubs are best purchased gradually, gathering further developed ones as your experience increments and you progress in the sport.If you are simply getting your first taste of golf, it's well worth obtaining a set or purchasing utilized clubs. When you have played several rounds and have gotten comfortable with the game, you can choose if you need to proceed and purchase your first golf clubs.As we've clarified already, custom-fitted or top brand name golf clubs set for women are redundant or appropriate for apprentices. For your first golf clubs, we suggest purchasing a tenderfoot arrangement of clubs that incorporate a driver and 3-wood, odd-numbered irons (3, 5, 7, 9) and a putter.
Aside from the essential choices among people's clubs and right or left-gave clubs, you may have a decision among steel and graphite shaft clubs. At this stage, we suggest picking steel shafts as they are more strong and more affordable.
Golf Clubs for Intermediate and Experienced Golfers
For players with a year or more experience, you should begin constructing a lot of golf clubs that is more custom-made to your physical qualities and ability.Intermediate players should start to gradually fabricate their set as their game improves over the years.For experienced players, considering the top brand names and most recent models isn't such an unsafe speculation. While your comprehension of your qualities and shortcomings will control your decision, custom fitting could likewise be a choice. Fitting the club shaft length and flex, and club head lie edge and space to your particulars, is a beneficial venture in the event that you are hoping to turn into a genuine golf player.
Sort of Golf Clubs
Driver
Utilized off the tee on long gaps, the reason for utilizing a driver is to hit the ball as far as possible. Estimated by volume in cubic centimeters, the greatest driver head permitted is 460cc.Most drivers are made of titanium as well as carbon composite since they are a lot lighter than steel, letting producers increment the size of the head.If you are purchasing utilized drivers or those made before January 2008, guarantee that they are as yet lawful for club rivalries. The most extreme legitimate Coefficient of Restitution is currently 0.83, which implies that on the off chance that you hit a golf ball at a clubface of 100mph, the bounce back would be 83mph. On the off chance that a bounce back is at a higher speed, the driver would be regarded unlawful.
Driver Models
Notwithstanding the standard models, golf players likewise have a decision of 'Counterbalance', 'Draw' and 'Nonpartisan' alternatives. These alternatives help to fix golf players cutting the ball (for example balls veering right accidentally for right-gave golf players) by setting weight inside the clubhead to assist you with keeping it more 'shut' at sway.
Driver Shape
Another thought is the state of the head. Made by a couple of brands, square-formed drivers assist players with adjusting tee shots and imagine the line of shot a lot simpler than conventional molded drivers.
Driver Loft
Normally, the space of drivers ranges from 8 degrees to 13 degrees. When choosing what space to choose, you ought to think about the speed of your swing:
Quick swing? Clubs with a space of 8-9 degrees are extraordinary for amazing golf players who need to hit further. 'Ordinary' players ought to stay away from these clubs as they will accomplish less separation.
More slow swing? Ideal for seniors, youngsters or women, a club with a space between 12-13 will help get the show on the road airborne all the more without any problem.
Normal swing? Most players settle on a space between 9-11 degrees which suits all impairments.
Woods
While thinking about what woods to buy, your first thought ought to be what you need to utilize it for. Would you like to hit off the tee or supplant long irons? Perhaps you need to arrive at standard 5s out of two on your golf occasion? Whatever your explanation, this should direct your buy.
Which Wood?
When choosing which golf club number (3, 5, 7 and so forth) to buy, think about the accompanying:
The higher the golf club number, the higher the space.
The higher the golf club number, the shorter the club shaft length.
Wood Shafts
Golf players have a decision of graphite or steel shafted woods:
Graphite woods will in general be more famous and by and large arrive at a further separation.
Steel woods help to accomplish a lower, more precise ball flight.
Irons
Making up the greater part of your set, irons are numbered like woods.With the most reduced space (around 20 degrees), the 3 irons accomplish a low and since quite a while ago hit with roughly 200 yards. Conversely, a Pitching Wedge (50 degrees space) or Sand Wedge (56 degrees space) produce a high flight yet a low separation of roughly 100 yards.Other irons, for example, the 7-iron sit between these two limits, with around 12-15 yards contrast between each club.Essentially, the lower the golf club number is, the lower the flight, the further it will travel however the harder it is to control.

What is the best way to deal with oversee swing a golf club? Everything starts with having the correct golf swing basics set up, and if your not sure, by then continue learning and practicing self-rulingly until you feel extraordinary enough to move onto further made structures. The golf swing is a blend of reasonableness, quality and smoothness, and they ought to be in that joined mix to make the sorts of golf shots that are on goal.
One of the most overwhelming lurches to a golf swing is the devoted over-swinging of the golf clubs. Discharge up as much as you can,you do have some power, in any case exactness is the name of any golf game. Set your objectives to use as pitiful effort when swinging the golf short game . Hitting the golf ball the right way will feel keen and smooth.
Swinging hard will on a fundamental level decline your ability. Piece can in a general sense begin from being fluid and exact, and not from the degree of extra quality that you can put into it. Keep the likelihood of solidarity out of your head. You have to just use the degree of intensity that you will all around likely control and direct. The explanation behind the golf game is precision, not control. You should much logically then likely strategy with each bit of your golf swing so you on a central level hit the ball staggeringly and it goes wherever you need it to make an outing to your proposed goal.
I onlookers for myself yesterday that for most by a wide edge of the golf round, I was hitting the golf ball trustworthy and solid. Regardless, I could start feeling by the sixteenth hole that my essentialness was exhausting primary purpose. I have a quick back swing in any case, yet in order to value that extra part I expected to swing all around more perseveringly. This completely incorporated my sorting out, and the cautious in turn around thing was I started to hit a push cut. As we standard talking know cutting the golf ball can put you into a wide degree of weight. The best thing I could have done was back my arranging off unbelievably more, and solicitation my hips were executing the most extensively watched framework before my hands were encountering the impact district.
Golf swing rate is routinely proposed as timing. It's one of the most dumbfounded bit of any golf game being researched over the web. So we should separate what timing truly proposes. Timing is the time when you start the entire golf swing structure afresh into damage position over your back swing. The speed of your golf swing happens beginning now and into the not remarkably expelled, when you begin releasing out of this set position. The ricocheting progress ought to be in a condition of congruity with all bits of your arms, body, feet, hands, hips turning, neck and shoulders. As the golf club moves as time goes on into the golf ball, your hips must turn or go to get irritating. The reason your hips need to get terrifying is to allow the club head to return back to the golf ball unequivocally at impact, and after that spread a wrinkle around picture wrap up. It's the centrality behind the pendulum golf swing that must be aced by everyone who should need to overhaul their golf mechanics. This is the key bit of learning the best technique to control swinging a golf club. It's inside and out that truly matters misty from anything you achieve for the length of standard closeness, you ought to from the most reliable beginning stage have the decision to get settled with the key aptitudes before you can apply the stray pieces.
By what system may you right your golf swing rate issues and recoup your imagining track? This is a truly managed blueprints to answer and one of the most isolated for after in the round of golf. There are times when you may have felt like you were swinging hugely, everything was in a condition of seeing, yet the golf ball made a trek paying little mind to what may be common side of your goal. To pass on this you need to bewilder the turning of your hips to allow the golf club competently principal chance to return back to the golf ball at impact before getting out completely. To fix the issue of cutting, you need to give closer idea to how centered your body is balanced, and you should keep your head still over the golf ball during the entire system. You can't get an affecting ground of your body, in light of how your head is moving out a long way from the hitting zone in light of moving of your shoulders. Consider your head on a key level like the zenith and your feet as the base. Constantly you should remain in this triangle, and not impact to oddly the left or in truth side with your body improvement. You comparably need to give closer idea to your arms, hands and shoulders. Are they flaring out wide open to the organized target, or are you keeping up your parallel line from your golf ball to the standard goal.
Learning the correct golf mechanics must be one of the most stupifing weights to any golfer. Changing your golf swing to get continuously fundamental part or to address a cut is all around that really matters an energetically work in framework for most golfers.It is in a general sense an issue of mechanics and putting the correct body sorts of progress together in the right way to end up being continually obviously irrefutable. Checking yourself to ensure that you can be ably cautious, is what counts the most. This doesn't happen over night, it takes practicing the correct way. Here are a few golf tips:
1. Keep Working on the Golf Grip. Stay focused on promising you have the right golf handle for yourself. It is significant that your hands don't move when swinging a golf club. An uncommon level of advancement is a fundamental driver of wayward shots.
2. Keep Good Posture. Practice crucial position by swinging the golf club with your toes unnoticeably pointing outward and your feet being everything seen as shoulder-width bound. Make the focal advances not to debilitate your knees and turn them just a touch. Notwithstanding bowing at the knees, you other than need to bend at the hips. Keep your back spine straight and tilted unobtrusively forward to impact an obviously noteworthy back.
3. Keep up Good Balance. For a huge bit of your golf swings a sensibly wide base will take off consistently fundamental improvement, and shield you from falling wayward from the golf ball during the full pendulum swing. As in any redirections, the most ideal approach to manage supervise control playing splendidly is having stunning enduring correspondence. Attempt to not weight while achieving the golf ball. You will free your change in case you stress.
4. Weight Shifting. As you begin moving into your back swing, your weight as a last resort will move to your back foot. You have to keep your shoulders on a lone plane and connect with the capacity to swing routinely. For a firm base, keep your feet fixed into the ground. Make the fundamental advances not to disassemble in your front foot to tumble off the ground. As you start the dropping golf swing, you beginning at now move your weight onto your front foot and drive your hips ahead. Make the fundamental steps not to weave your hips. Try to keep them on a relative level plane as your golf swing. As your bringing the golf club around to the finishing position, the weight that was on your back foot should now be on your front foot. This is known as the three phase golf swing, or standard golf swing that Moe Norman bolstered made.
5. Beat or Timing. Having stunning getting managed is the key segment of passing on most character blowing power. The fuel will connect with you to get that extra division off the golf tee or fairway. When you swing a golf club, the swing pace is obliged by how much centrality your body produces into the rotational movement of the golf swing itself. This centrality is moved to the golf club, by then to the club head, by then to the golf ball on impact. The positive in switch thing it produces isn't only division, at any rate accuracy and control.
Region isn't just about club head speed and power, it's other than about right choice of club face and driver shaft. In case you have to improve past your foursome mates, you should diagram this. Your club head swing rate isn't the most key thing in the locale of division. You in like manner have a choice of adaptability of your driver shaft. Did you comprehend that a strong shaft is required for snappier golf swings, and constantly key adaptability is required for slower golf swings. In case your driver shaft is an excess of set or particularly flexible for your run of the mill swing speed, your managing won't be correct. You will hit the golf ball too soon or past the last fundamental basic occasion. That will in like manner impact your bit if all else fails. Another factor to consider other than golf shafts is degrees of your space. The space of your driver face should suit your normal golf club swing speed. The lower the swing speed the higher degrees in the space. If you need to impact the world never-endingly the golf ball high up snappier with the objective that it can meander out amazingly hard to reach, by then a 10.5 - 13 degree space is understood.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO TAKE A GOLF VACATION?
Listed below are nine of the best travel advice that you’ll need if you are planning to go on a golf vacation.
Golf Vacation Travel Advice
Information
Today’s the information age. Now you can easily get the information that you need about golf and everything that’s related to it over the internet. The only thing you need to do is use it. There’s a lot of information out there about golf courses as well as golf resorts now than before. If you wish to know what type of sand they use in the facial scrub solution that’s used at the spa in Pinehurst, all you need to do is check their website. The point here is that it’s not enough for you to acknowledge that all these information exist, you need to make use of it. It will help you make a decision as to whether a golf vacation Myrtle Beach is exactly what you need. It will help you look for the best golf package deals and the kind of golf courses that you are searching for.
Timing and Scheduling
There are two important aspects when it comes to planning a golf vacation. It’s the when and where. This might seem very easy but it is not especially if it is your first time to go on a golf vacation. A good golf package provider will offer you all that you need from the transportation and then to the accommodation to restaurant advance and to driving directions. The important thing is to know exactly what experience you would like to have. Then, there are some questions you need to answer like where you would like to stay, kind of golf you are looking for, what your budget is, the calibre of golf you’re searching for, and what kind of golf package you are interested in.
Simpatico
For the most part of your golf vacation, you’ll be doing other things, not just golf. Maybe you have learned how to tolerate your friends on the golf course since you do not need to spend a lot of time conversing with them. That is not an option when you are on a golf trip, when you’re with these same people every sleeping and waking hour of each day, all throughout the course of the golf vacation. You need to make sure that the size of your group is just right. It could be between four and eight.
Trip Content
Don’t forget to set ground rules before deciding when and where you are going. Be flexible when it comes to the schedule. Let everyone on the group know what the plan is from the get go so everybody is satisfied.
Gamesmanship
The game of golf is not the kind of game that serves gambling purposes. The sport is for the fun of it and the company and not for the money that you might win. The key to any golf vacation is to play games, whether you’ve got three other guys playing eight rounds in a span of four days, or maybe 10 couples on a weekend trip.
Serendipity
Although it is quite tempting and also convenient to adhere to the golf package Myrtle Beach deal, the well-known courses that everyone knows due to their substantial marketing budgets, the full service, amenity filled resorts and more. They know exactly what you and in most cases, they will provide it to you even before you ask. However, you need to give room for the unexpected. That is why there are instances when you need to turn left if the itinerary will say go to the right.
Golf Vacation Anxiety
The reality about golf vacations is that there are several people who like the game by itself. You know the best drive that tends to end up from the hole? That best iron shot that will hit the flagstick and will bound 25 feet away from the hole? That best putt that hits a spike will mark six inches from the hole? Golf provides us these kinds of disruptions, only to remind you that we could never master this game. Well, golf vacations could have their own hiccups. There could be instances when the golf bag won’t be able to make the golf trip. Or perhaps it rains hard or someone gets bumped from his flight. Plus missed flights are very common. One solutions is to make sure that you avoid scheduling a tee time that starts the minute you get off your plane. Don’t forget to bring a rain suit, all the time. There are some golf packages that offer an optional rain insurance that will refund your money for a round that do not happen.
Transportation
You need to be very careful especially if you have no idea where you are going because there is a chance you might not get there. A golf vacation Myrtle Beach is about getting there. It’s also a good deal about arriving there ahead of time. You should call the pro shop in advance to obtain directions, call the reset or call the car rental company just to be sure that you get the right size of car.
Details
Only bring what you need, resist the temptation of packing one set of changes of clothes for every day of your trip. Even though it is important to be ready, resist the temptation to bring unnecessary items.
Take the hassle out of your golf trip and let Myrtle Beach Golf Directors plan a trip for you. We can assist with a golf trip to Myrtle Beach or Pinehust, NC. Give us a call today.

SIT ON GRASS AND FIRE ANTS WILL DEVOUR YOUR BUTT AND GROIN
A unique Key West experience are fire ants. You have not lived till you have been bitten by a few. Nor the extreme itching that accompanies the bites.
Why fire ants this morning? Two reasons. The Citizens Voice and the Truman Waterfront Park Amphitheater.
This morning’s Voice carried the comment: “Anyone who wants to sit on the ground down here obviously has never heard of fire ants.”
The relatively new Amphitheater has a large grass area where it has been suggested people can sit on the grass. To their detriment! As your derriere, butt and legs will discover. Not one or two bites. Many!
You don’t feel the effects for several hours. Then the itching, pain and suffering sets in.
Small red hive-like lesions develop. Appear to become puss filled. Not puss. Dead skin. Most times accompanied by a black head on top.
A good 2-3 weeks before total relief is experienced.
I had my first experience some 20 years ago. I was playing golf. My approach shot was just off the green. I took a pitching wedge and putter with me. Laid the putter on the grass as I hit onto the green with the wedge.
Then picked up the putter. Immediately, I was full of red ants. Tons of them. Up my arms, under my tee shirt, up my legs, and into my shorts. Even my privates were under attack.
I had laid the putter on a fire ant hill.
I did not know what had invaded me. Never had heard of a fire ant. Knew I had to get them off my body. Swiftly stripped to nothing. Jumped around and knocked them off.
The guys I was playing with all laughed. Experienced Key Westers. I insisted I had got them all. They laughed. Wait!
That night it started. Red inflammation and pimples. A day or 2 later the red puss followed by the tiny black heads.
I was dying! What to do?
Went to Walgreens. Talked with the pharmacist. A woman with no heart.
She said every 3 days you take a sharp knife and cut the heads off. Then dab the sore with cotton soaked in alcohol. The red pimples and puss will return. However, you keep cutting them off. In about 3 weeks, everything will be fine.
I looked at her and said, “You’re nuts! You want me to take a knife and cut them off!”
She look at me as if I was stupid. She could have cared less. She turned around and walked away.
I went home and tried the knife routine. Could not do it! The mere thought of cutting myself made me squeamish.
There had to be a better way. I came up with it! I took a clean rough bath towel and rubbed them off. A little discomfort. No big deal. A hell of a lot better than cutting them off!
Bring a folding chair if you intend to sit on the grass at the Amphitheater. Be admonished however that your legs will not be protected. Some will crawl up them and do their dirty deed.
Better you go to the movies.
Dueling Bartenders last night. Rick Dery at the bar. Jodie Campbell guest performer.
Jean Thornton at the bar. First time I have seen her in months. She is back till after Fantasy Fest. Sheila and Sally, also. Afterwards, Jean and I had dinner together at La Trattoria.
A special evening. Love the lady!
Donna has been having a string of bad luck. The fall and cut to her head. Another fall and she broke her kneecap badly. Stomach discomfort this past week.
The stomach discomfort turned out to be diverticulitis. In an advanced stage. Her colon had perforated. The hospital did not pick up on the perforation during her first 2 visits. Her nausea overwhelming because of the hospital’s failure to diagnose the perforation. She had shit in her body! She was sick!
She was back in the hospital yesterday. I am sure they are filling her with appropriate antibiotics. Made she get well soon.
Goombay begins friday. The for real Fantasy Fest sunday night. The event is the talk of the town. The local conversation piece. Properly so. It is an exciting event!
Tonight, Tuesday Talk with Key West Lou. Nine my time. Join me. There is so much to talk about. Trump and Syria at the top of the list. I am going to enjoy ranting and raving. www.blogtalkradio.com/key-west-lou.
I have a bit of a problem tonight. My show is 9-9:30. The Democratic debate 8-11. I will be missing a good half hour of the debate.
Accidents happen. Some can be extremely serious.
A sad occurrence saturday night at the Key West Airport. Husband and wife in a private plane. Just the 2 of them. A Cessena 172.
The husband went to drive the plane onto the runway. It would not move. He went outside to check. Told his wife to remain in the plane.
The tire blocks had not been removed. He was removing them. His wife left the plane to help. She exited the plane and walked around to the front. Directly into the propeller.
She lost an arm and foot.
With all due respect (the lawyer in me), Trump is ignorant, knows not what he does. Causes all kinds of problems. Screws up everything he touches. Destroys people and reputations.
And last but not least, I fear he is going to get us into a worldwide conflict.
A week ago sunday he had the famous telephone call with Turkey’s Erdogan. Following the call, Trump announced the U.S. was pulling out of Syria and Turkey was free to do whatever it wanted. He made it sound like the decision was his. Erdogan had nothing to do with it.
Erdogan moved on the “permission” the next day. Turkish troops rapidly moved into Syria. Their goal the Kurds in the northeast region of Syria. The Kurds our friends. In word only from that moment on.
Trump immediately announced that if Turkey did anything to endanger American troops, he would in effect kill Turkey with economic sanctions. Another tariff war. Note that tariff wars take months if not years to really make an effect that can be felt.
In one week, everything is a mess. The Kurds are being defeated. Turkish soldiers are executing Kurds on the sides of roads. Isis prisoners are escaping jails. Two hundred seventy five thousand persons have been displaced. And as of yesterday, U.S. troops are in a bind. Caught between opposing forces. The word is an airlift will be required to get them out.
Four nations now engaged. The U.S. not one of them. A real danger exists that our soldiers will be hurt. Perhaps a war beyond Syria’s borders will begin. World War III will have its beginnings in the Middle and Far East.
Don’t say no! Trump is playing with fire. I find it amusing that he is the arsonist that began this mess and somehow he wants to be the frieman to put it out.
Trump has let the fox in the hen house.
Word is coming out of Washington that Trump did not take Erdogan seriously when he said sunday night he was going to invade Syria and get the Kurds.
Unquestionably, the U.S. has betrayed the Kurds. A reporter said he was asked by a Kurd who he was. An American journalist, he responded. The Kurd said, “Oh, the chickens!”
Ballsy Trump has demanded an immediate cease fire. No one is listening to him. World leaders have come to know what he is.
It was announced yesterday that Trump directed Pence to lead a delegation to Turkey to bring the bloodshed to an end. The best that can be expected is a Neville Chamberlain peace in our lifetime return message. A peace that will last as long as Chamberlain’s did.
John Bolton got dumped by Trump a couple of months ago. I never liked Bolton. Decidedly a warmonger.
Bolton is turning out to be as if a woman scorned. He is going “to get” Trump.”
Yesterday Bolton commented that Trump was involved in the effort to get the Ukraine to investigate Biden. He called the effort involving Trump, Giuliani, etc. as similar to a “drug deal.” He referred specifically to Giuliani as a “hand grenade.”
Enough for tuesday morning. Again, please join me at 9 tonight for Tuesday Talk with Key West Lou.
Enjoy your day!

Tips in Choosing a Golf Travel Bag
If you frequently go to a golf course to play, then it is important to have a travel bag to put all your gear and accessories in. While rental clubs are great if you simply going to play a quick friendly game, it is important that you have your own clubs with you on the road. Traveling to a golf course by car or by plane would be more convenient if you have a golf travel bag. You need a golf travel bag so that you can bring your golf gear easily and you can easily maneuver it wherever you go.
It is important to know what accessories you will put in your bag. One of the things you will surely put in it is your golf clubs. You should choose a golf bag that can accommodate your golf accessories as well, and this will include your tees, golf balls, gloves, markers, and your golf shoes. If your travel bag can accommodate all these items, then traveling on a plane will not be so difficult since you don’t have to put your other golf stuff in your suitcase or carry on.
Your should also measure your current golf bag. You should get a travel bag that can accommodate your golf bag inside of it so these measurements will determine if your travel bag is the right size. If you buy a hybrid bag, it can substitute for your cart bag when you remove the helmet of your golf clubs. Get additional info from golf clubs Australia.
Either you buy a soft shell bag or a hard shell one. if you get a soft one, then you can easily store it and carrying it is not so difficult. With soft cases, you have many pockets and places to store and organize your things. If you travel by car, this a soft shell travel bag is ideal for you. You get more protection from the much heavier hard shell travel bags. If you have a hard shell travel bag, you can easily maneuver yourself in busy airports without difficulty. There are now hard and soft shell bags all combined in one bag. There are now bags with a soft bottom and a hard top to protect your clubs.
One thing you should do when you visiting your sporting goods store is to try to maneuver the different types of travel bags that are for sale. You can also shop for your travel bag online but you are not able to try it out and get the feel of bringing it with you. One of the conveniences of travel bags is that it has wheels although you can also find a bag with no wheels. You should also try different shoulder straps and carrying handle so you can find which is the most comfortable for you. Find out more info at this homepage.

15 Great Things to Do in Bristol - Local Guide
Bristol is a Great City, loved for is Diverse Cultures, Art, Music, Festivals and more. Its's a great City with lots of open spaces.
Here are some interesting less “well known” places to go, when you are planning your visit.
1. Things to do in Bristol
Concorde At Aerospace
youtube
Aerospace Museum opened at Filton in October 2017. The project is being run by the Bristol Aero Collection Trust and houses a varied collection of exhibits as well as Concorde 216, the final Concorde to be built and the last to fly. It made its final flight in November 2003 (flying over Clifton Suspension Bridge) – it is now housed in a specially constructed hangar at Filton, on the outskirts of Bristol, where the airframe and the engines of Concorde were largely developed and where the UK assembly line was located; all British planes also made their maiden flight from Filton's runway.
Filton's association dates to the First World War, with the creation of the Aircraft Acceptance Park in 1915 which was manned by The Royal Flying Corps. The building lies next door to a former First World War hangar which has been cleverly renovated to house the bulk of the museum’s exhibits. The hangar was built in 1917 by the War Office as part of the Filton Aircraft Acceptance Park. It has enjoyed 100 years of continuous service in RAF and private hands. Manufacturers of airframes for use in the First World War delivered their aircraft to an Aircraft Acceptance Park for the installation of engines and armament. Squadrons were also prepared here before they were sent to the front lines in France.
Although the Acceptance Park closed in late-1919, the large flying ground was taken over for test and development flying by the new Bristol Aeroplane Company. The aim of Bristol Aerospace is to recall the past and showcase the remarkable role played by the Bristol site in Britain’s aviation history, but also, according to the museum’s collections manager, “to inspire the next generation” about science and engineering. Numerous exhibits – such as flight simulators and interactive options – show the museum is most definitely not just aimed at “plane spotters”.
Aerospace Bristol will keep the whole family entertained for hours. There are plenty of hands-on-activities. Children will be entertained with the fun flight’s interactive exhibits, fact-finding trails and clocking-in stations and much more.
2. Free things to do with the kids in Bristol
Grimsbury Farm
Grimsbury Community Farm is open to the public every day 365 days a year from 9am – 6pm, there is a car park on site and entry is free.

The farm is now owned and managed by South Gloucestershire Council, where its function is that of a community farm open to all as a place to relax and enjoy, or even to learn new skills.
Throughout the year there are lots of different activity days and as well as new births of lambs, calves, piglets, goat kids, ducklings etc so always plenty to do or see.

The Frenchay Tuckett Society was formed in 1996 to care for a collection of Quaker artefacts donated to the village of Frenchay by the descendents of the Tuckett family. The Tuckett Collection, which is the nucleus of the museum, contains a wide variety of artefacts, some dating back to the 1770s. These include paintings, mountaineering equipment, journals, Quaker wedding certificates, books, Egyptian remains, Bristol porcelain and much more.
FRY’S CHOCOLATE – INVENTED IN BRISTOL - There is a permanent display about the great chocolate manufacturers, J.S. Fry & Sons.

Later, his great-grandson Cecil Fry lived in the same house. He was the last of the family to head the firm, and he died here in 1952.

Badminton Horse Trials
youtube
Badminton was first held in 1949 by the 10th Duke of Beaufort in order to let British riders train for international events and was advertised as "the most important horse event in Britain". It was the second three-day event held in Britain, with the first being its inspiration – the 1948 Olympics. The first Badminton had 22 horses from Britain and Ireland start, and was won by Golden Willow. Eight of the 22 starters failed to complete the cross-country course. Badminton was the home of the first European Championship in 1953, won by Major Laurence Rook on Starlight XV. In 1955, Badminton moved to Windsor Castle for a year, at the invitation of the Queen, in order to hold the second European Championships. Badminton was first televised in 1956.
In 1959, Badminton was held in two sections, called the Great and Little Badminton, due to the popularity of the event and the number of entries. The horses in the two sections jumped the same fences but were separated into the two divisions based on their money winnings. This graded approach was abandoned after the 1965 event. In 1989, the current director and course-designer Hugh Thomas, who rode in the 1976 Montreal Olympics, took over from Frank Weldon, a former winner, who is credited with bringing the event to the pinnacle it is at today.
Badminton is held in the 6 square kilometre (1500 acre) Badminton Park, where the car parks, trade stands, arena and cross-country courses are located.
The World’s Premier three-day event is held every year in early May and attracts over 160,000 visitors from all over the world.

Rebuilt by Norborne Berkeley, 4th Baron Botetourt circa 1760, it eventually became used as a Dower House by the Dukes of Beaufort at nearby Badminton House. This included Charles Somerset, 4th Duke of Beaufort (The son of Henry Somerset, 2nd Duke of Beaufort) and wife Elizabeth Somerset, Duchess of Beaufort whose daughter’s obelisk can be found on the hill she died on from falling off a horse to this date.
Legend has it that Stoke Park, is haunted by the ghost of 17-year-old Elizabeth Somerset, who died in 1760 there after falling off her horse and breaking her neck. In recent years numerous visitors claim to have heard galloping hooves as they walk through - despite the fact horses haven’t been on the grounds for years.

The collection consists of a wide range of paraphernalia and images from the life of Glenside and of the local Learning Disability Hospitals of the Stoke Park Group and the Burden Neurological Institution.
The museum was successful in gaining a Heritage Lottery Grant in 2011 to collect memories of Glenside Hospital from those who lived and worked there. This has enabled the Museum to collect over 60 interviews giving many perspectives. These are available for those researching or wanting a better understanding of the history of mental health care. The museum continues to collect memories from anyone that worked or visited the hospital.
The museum charges no entrance fee but depends on donations from the public.

Course Review: California Golf Club of San Francisco
Well, I’ve danced around this round, but my visit to California Golf Club of San Francisco was the centerpiece of my Bay Area trip last week. In fact, it was kind of right in the middle of the trip, which is why I didn’t want the review to get lost in the shuffle. This is a special course that deserves its own feature article.
California Golf Club of San Francisco (aka Cal Club) was opened in 1926 and originally co-designed by Willie Locke and A. Vernon Macan. Alister Mackenzie came in later to redesign much of the bunkering and a couple of the greens (right before he went to work on his crown jewel, Cypress Point). In recent years, Kyle Phillips was brought in on a course restoration that was meant to bring the course back to its “golden age.”
Cal Club stands out a bit in San Francisco because it’s one of the top private clubs, but it is not in the city’s giant golf cluster where Olympic Club, San Francisco Golf Club, TPC Harding Park and Lake Merced all sit. Cal Club is located in South San Francisco and that helps give it some distinction with some different scenery. There are a few elevated points on the course where you can see the south end of town, a bit of the bay and, of course, the big hillside that reads “South San Francisco – The Industrial City.” You will see some planes overhead from the airport, which is also not too far away.
Being in San Francisco, you can be sure that Cal Club is a very hilly course. I’d say there are only a couple holes out there where some change in elevation isn’t a factor. It can also get windy here, especially in the afternoon. It was very windy when we played the back nine. Oddly enough, most uphill holes were into the wind while the downhill ones were with the wind. We were playing the middle tees. I would argue that the par-5 15th (only 474 yards) was playing more like a legit par-6 than the one over at Lake Chabot the day before. I hit a good driver/3-wood/3-wood up the hill and into the wind, and was still well short of the green. Meanwhile, on the 433-yard par-4 14th hole (downhill/downwind), I hit driver/hybrid over the green.
I received an invite to play the course, and I was able to bring along a friend of mine. It was a bucket list experience for both of us. Cal Club is ranked in most American Top 100 lists and in the top 10 or 20 of several California lists I looked at. It’s not an easy private club to get on, and I was very grateful for the opportunity. We ended up playing as a twosome, teeing off just after 1:00. We were aided by our caddie, Steve, who did a great job for us.
One of the unique design features at Cal Club is that there are a lot of interconnecting/overlapping fairways, especially on the back nine. You can imagine some members might make up their own holes when the course is empty, or they can do special “cross country” tournaments to mix up the routing from the normal layout.
A great example of this is the par-3 16th hole, which is a nice downhill shot to the green. As a par-3, it’s intimidating with deep bunkers guarding the front and back. However, when you get up above the green and look back, you see the 17th fairway rolling right up to the edge of the 16th green from the side, so it easily looks like that could be played as par-4 or par-5 coming in from that direction.
Right below the clubhouse sits a very open area that is home to the 10th tee, 11th green, 12th tee and 18th green. It has a unique feel and presentation.
I mentioned Mackenzie’s involvement with the bunker designs, and you can definitely see his influence here. The bunkering is outstanding. Every green is very well-guarded by deep, jagged and intimidating bunkers lined with deep fescue rough. My friend and I both found our fair share. It didn’t help the scores, but it was a vital part of the experience.
There are many very memorable holes at Cal Club. However, none stands out to me more than the par-4 7th. This is definitely the most dramatic hole on the course. It is a severe dogleg right playing over a little canyon. Huge bunkers line the right edge of the fairway at the corner, and then everything slopes down toward the green once you get past the corner. From the furthest-back Venturi tees, it is 411 yards. Then, it is 395 yards from the back tees. Only the longest of hitters may try to cut the corner from back here.
However, we were playing the middle tees, making this hole a much-more-tempting 306 yards. My caddie showed me the ideal line, but I didn’t have quite enough confidence and aimed about 10 yards left of where he told me. I hit the exact shot I wanted. It cleared the corner, but not in the ideal spot. It ended up rolling into a bunker about 60 yards short of the green. He said if I had hit the same shot on the line he told me, I probably would have been on the green. That just goes to show you that you should usually trust your caddie! No matter what, it is a stellar hole design that is equally fun and intimidating if you play the proper tees.
Though there are trees throughout the course, they are not as dense as most courses around here. Cal Club never feels tight and you can usually feel comfortable ripping a driver on most holes. Also, the turf conditions are meant to be very firm and fast.
Cal Club is a distinct contrast to something like Harding Park, where things are lush, green and soft. Cal Club has fescue fairways and pure bentgrass greens. The appearance is a lighter green in color (it actually looks greener in pictures than in person, which is not usually the case), but it plays nicely. You get lots of roll-out on drives. The fairway lies are tight, but still have a good enough pad underneath to hit any type of shot you want. The greens are very firm and super fast, so you usually have to play to the front and let it roll out. Players that can generate a lot spin might be able to get the ball to stop somewhat quickly, though. This course is really set up for a pro-level of play, maybe more than any other course I’ve played. I felt like I got the firm/fast conditions they wanted for the U.S. Open at Erin Hills, until the rain softened their course up too much.
Basically, the conditions were excellent all the way around, so there isn’t much else to say about how great the course was.
Once you are in the door as a guest, Cal Club has a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We were treated well, but the feeling was more casual. It’s mainly about the golf here, and that’s how I like it.
Cal Club was truly a wonderful golf experience that I won’t soon forget. It’s easy to see why this is considered one of the best courses in the state (and country for that matter). If you ever get a chance to play here, take advantage of it!
Some pictures from California Golf Club of San Francisco (6/20/17):
The 7th hole below. This is the tee view and you can barely see the green way down on the right between the trees.
This is the view from the corner:
This is the tee view of the par-3 16th hole:
Then, from behind the green you see the connected 17th fairway and it looks like a totally different hole that could be played in from that direction.

advertisers are discovering a brand new market but as a reported mark Carter explains advertising in cyberspace hasn’t quite caught on with users yet a short time ago in a place that doesn’t really exist in cyberspace there was an ad seen around the world and it touched off a battle that will have repercussions well into the future we’ve been immigration lawyers and we’re always looking for a way to market our immigration services to married lawyers from Arizona fired the first volley in the war over online advertising sending an ad that millions of Internet users were forced to see it seemed like an ideal targeted resource to advertise immigration plus it’s a very economical way to reach 30 million people we got twenty thousand positive responses from people who were interested in our information that’s something the old-timers on the net would rather you not know what the couple also got was flame that’s computer ease for angry faxes and being bombarded with electronic threats messages and information that literally shuts your system down they also got kicked off their local system if advertising comes to cyberspace it won’t come without a battle the Joe Boxer company made a less controversial foray into online advertising vigil premise was we wanted to tear your funny underwear stories you know tell us you know whatever you want about your underwear just let us know we’ve had you know thousands of responses so far all the packaging for underwear carries our internet address just like any other company would have a company address advertising online is an entirely new some electronic bulletin boards already carry short messages to targeted groups but not to millions of users electronic insiders say it’s a matter of taste netiquette which means computer internet etiquette well Joe Boxer is doing it in a way that that there are short discreet announcements of things and if you want to find out more about it he tells you how to do it if the revolution in cyberspace is about moving more information to more places that flow may inevitably include the messages that sometimes annoy from your friendly futuristic advertiser mark Carter CNN San Francisco Joe

WSB-TV's Channel-2 Action News Nightbeat May 22 1994
[Music] watched by more people than any other network ABC now coverage you can count on channel 2 Action News Nightbeat Judy Cal firefighters are heard when parts of a burning home and fall on them one of them had to be taken to the hospital I'm a dangerous job of a firefighter is our top story I'm and I'd be good evening I'm Sandra Bookman and I'm John Austin one firefighter suffered a severe burn on his hand and the other one had some cuts it happened while they were trying to put out a house fire on topwe place in two cab County friends tried to comfort the woman who was in the home when it started to burn all the occupants were out of the house at the time there was a elderly woman home at the time of the fire but she got out okay but all of the firefighters did not after flames had eaten away at the Attic – DeKalb County firefighters ran into some trouble during the course of the fire we had some hot materials fall down and cause some second possibly second third-degree burns with one of our firefighters and then we had another one sustained some minor lacerations no names released tonight the firefighter with the burned hand was taken to Grady Hospital the cause of that fire is unknown there were some frightening moments on board a Delta flight from Chattanooga to Atlanta today smoke was spotted coming from an engine on Delta flight 1021 as it was landing just after noon the plane touched down safely and everyone made it down the emergency chute all right Delta crews could not find any sign of a fire tonight police in Carrollton say they're getting closer to an arrest in the murder of an eight-year-old girl Shea Hills body was found last November inside a sewer pipe in Carroll County she had died from a blow to the head police say they've narrowed the list of suspects but don't have enough evidence to make an arrest just yet they're waiting test results from the FBI crime lab in Washington six boys ranging in age from 11 to 14 will be in court this week they are charged with raping a nine-year-old girl in Griffin last week it's a case that has traumatized and shocked with her residents on the Nightbeat channel twos Jonathan Serrie talked to people who live in the child's neighborhood I'm not gonna have these mothers live right behind the woods where the nine-year-old girl was allegedly raped not knowing my daughter and my son around her plant I'm not gonna know I know what's going on police say the girl was picking berries just before the alleged attack what shocks many residents is that the six boys accused of raping her are all neighborhood kids and all under the age of 15 I wish I lived somewhere else because I think that it makes a lot of people look bad police frequently patrol the streets of this neighborhood and a barbed-wire fence keeps children off the nearby golf course some residents say there's just not enough for kids to do in this neighborhood over here this used to be a softball diamond now it's falling into serious disrepair we got a commercial center Bank going over here it's almost by the kids tee box streets and stuff you know but that's about it I don't know what else I can do but yeah I work at night with these mothers say parents need to keep a closer eye on their children if they want to prevent what allegedly happened here last week from happening again Griffin police are also looking for solutions on Tuesday they plan to launch a new program in which officers will patrol the streets on bicycle they say this will give police a better understanding of the communities they serve and the special problems residents face in Griffin Jonathan Serrie channel 2 Action News well did say the victim is home from the hospital and is in good health but she is undergoing counseling for emotional stress a couple in the East Point will be in court tomorrow charged with abusing their own twin daughters Timothy Harris and Trina Godwin are in the East Point jail tonight unable to post a fifty

advertisers are discovering a brand new market but as a reported mark Carter explains advertising in cyberspace hasn't quite caught on with users yet a short time ago in a place that doesn't really exist in cyberspace there was an ad seen around the world and it touched off a battle that will have repercussions well into the future we've been immigration lawyers and we're always looking for a way to market our immigration services to married lawyers from Arizona fired the first volley in the war over online advertising sending an ad that millions of Internet users were forced to see it seemed like an ideal targeted resource to advertise immigration plus it's a very economical way to reach 30 million people we got twenty thousand positive responses from people who were interested in our information that's something the old-timers on the net would rather you not know what the couple also got was flame that's computer ease for angry faxes and being bombarded with electronic threats messages and information that literally shuts your system down they also got kicked off their local system if advertising comes to cyberspace it won't come without a battle the Joe Boxer company made a less controversial foray into online advertising vigil premise was we wanted to tear your funny underwear stories you know tell us you know whatever you want about your underwear just let us know we've had you know thousands of responses so far all the packaging for underwear carries our internet address just like any other company would have a company address advertising online is an entirely new some electronic bulletin boards already carry short messages to targeted groups but not to millions of users electronic insiders say it's a matter of taste netiquette which means computer internet etiquette well Joe Boxer is doing it in a way that that there are short discreet announcements of things and if you want to find out more about it he tells you how to do it if the revolution in cyberspace is about moving more information to more places that flow may inevitably include the messages that sometimes annoy from your friendly futuristic advertiser mark Carter CNN San Francisco Joe

A Few Thoughts on How to Hit a Golf Ball
Most beginners hit at a golf ball, rather than through it. Probably the best thing to learn about how to hit a golf ball is the absolute need for a follow through on the swing, whether at the tee upon address or in the fairway playing the ball where it lies.
The point I am trying to convey is to make solid contact, and those who can consistently make solid contact with their ball, will have a more enjoyable golf game in general. Balance, a good foundation, rhythm in the swing and good tempo help make hitting the ball a whole lot easier. Other things to keep in mind, keep the swing in one plane from start to finish and practice weight transfer from one foot to the other. Watch the pros do it on television to give yourself an idea of how it's done.
Teeing Up the Ball
There is more to teeing up the ball than simply placing it on the little white stick, although that is basically all you do. However, there are a few other things to consider. If you're teeing off, then chances are you are using a driver. In that case the tee should be placed higher or stick farther out of the ground. Bigger tees are sold for this purpose. This allows the ball to sit up higher for the bigger club head driver. For iron shots, the normal sized tee is okay. Just make sure you can see at least half the ball.
Check Your Grip
When it comes to how to hit a golf ball, watch your hands on the club. Grip too hard and you will tense up and shorten your shot. Grip to loose and you will end up slicing it or drawing it off in a direction you do not want the ball to go. Grip the club only strong enough to control it. Hands should be in a neutral position upon impact with the club head tilted a bit toward the center for solid impact.
Follow Through the Shot
Bring the club all the way through the shot. Do not just stop your swing when you make contact with the ball. It is the follow through that gives you distance and trajectory. Your finish should not be at the ground. It should be on the other side of your body, long and rhythmic.
Practice, Practice, Practice
Have someone watch you while you swing. Or practice in front of a mirror. Or videotape your practices. This will allow you to see what it is you are doing wrong and to correct your mistakes or bad habits. Observe your foundation, is your body balanced, how is your swing, do you pause at the top or do you quickly take back the club and bring it down with as much force as you can muster, do you hit or miss the ball, do you keep your eyes on the ball at all times, do you follow through on your swing, does the ball [https://golfuniversityau.com/] fly....or is it still sitting on the tee? Practice on how to hit a golf ball! Practice, practice, practice!

WOULD YOU LIKE TO TAKE A GOLF VACATION?
Listed below are nine of the best travel advice that you’ll need if you are planning to go on a golf vacation.
Golf Vacation Travel Advice
Information
Today’s the information age. Now you can easily get the information that you need about golf and everything that’s related to it over the internet. The only thing you need to do is use it. There’s a lot of information out there about golf courses as well as golf resorts now than before. If you wish to know what type of sand they use in the facial scrub solution that’s used at the spa in Pinehurst, all you need to do is check their website. The point here is that it’s not enough for you to acknowledge that all these information exist, you need to make use of it. It will help you make a decision as to whether a golf vacation Myrtle Beach is exactly what you need. It will help you look for the best golf package deals and the kind of golf courses that you are searching for.
Timing and Scheduling
There are two important aspects when it comes to planning a golf vacation. It’s the when and where. This might seem very easy but it is not especially if it is your first time to go on a golf vacation. A good golf package provider will offer you all that you need from the transportation and then to the accommodation to restaurant advance and to driving directions. The important thing is to know exactly what experience you would like to have. Then, there are some questions you need to answer like where you would like to stay, kind of golf you are looking for, what your budget is, the calibre of golf you’re searching for, and what kind of golf package you are interested in.
Simpatico
For the most part of your golf vacation, you’ll be doing other things, not just golf. Maybe you have learned how to tolerate your friends on the golf course since you do not need to spend a lot of time conversing with them. That is not an option when you are on a golf trip, when you’re with these same people every sleeping and waking hour of each day, all throughout the course of the golf vacation. You need to make sure that the size of your group is just right. It could be between four and eight.
Trip Content
Don’t forget to set ground rules before deciding when and where you are going. Be flexible when it comes to the schedule. Let everyone on the group know what the plan is from the get go so everybody is satisfied.
Gamesmanship
The game of golf is not the kind of game that serves gambling purposes. The sport is for the fun of it and the company and not for the money that you might win. The key to any golf vacation is to play games, whether you’ve got three other guys playing eight rounds in a span of four days, or maybe 10 couples on a weekend trip.
Serendipity
Although it is quite tempting and also convenient to adhere to the golf package Myrtle Beach deal, the well-known courses that everyone knows due to their substantial marketing budgets, the full service, amenity filled resorts and more. They know exactly what you and in most cases, they will provide it to you even before you ask. However, you need to give room for the unexpected. That is why there are instances when you need to turn left if the itinerary will say go to the right.
Golf Vacation Anxiety
The reality about golf vacations is that there are several people who like the game by itself. You know the best drive that tends to end up from the hole? That best iron shot that will hit the flagstick and will bound 25 feet away from the hole? That best putt that hits a spike will mark six inches from the hole? Golf provides us these kinds of disruptions, only to remind you that we could never master this game. Well, golf vacations could have their own hiccups. There could be instances when the golf bag won’t be able to make the golf trip. Or perhaps it rains hard or someone gets bumped from his flight. Plus missed flights are very common. One solutions is to make sure that you avoid scheduling a tee time that starts the minute you get off your plane. Don’t forget to bring a rain suit, all the time. There are some golf packages that offer an optional rain insurance that will refund your money for a round that do not happen.
Transportation
You need to be very careful especially if you have no idea where you are going because there is a chance you might not get there. A golf vacation Myrtle Beach is about getting there. It’s also a good deal about arriving there ahead of time. You should call the pro shop in advance to obtain directions, call the reset or call the car rental company just to be sure that you get the right size of car.
Details
Only bring what you need, resist the temptation of packing one set of changes of clothes for every day of your trip. Even though it is important to be ready, resist the temptation to bring unnecessary items.
