1/5

Introduced to the Golf course some years ago that stems from seeingblack caddies on weekends in numbers heading along the country road. Likeany stupid idea by the intrigue of a teenager, I was bound to find that

direction. With Peter Beyer my advertising agent, I though his lead there as abrainstorming idea improving our advertising campaigns. Soon encounteringuncomprehending moments to wedge into my time a driving range at improvingmyself. By facility the tools during work days in the trunk of my car, I slammed myfrustration out on golf balls. Then, one day I skid off that perfect swings watching everyball spinning a projectile. Golf ball flights taking a beautiful outward curve edging back in lineto land through the lattice of an electric pylon planted in the far off distance. Behind meadmirers gathered, standing by, telling I must be doing something right.

Then the day came that I switched to master with equal agility the perfect swing withIrons. I was alone to the flops of no return on both Woods and Irons. Even with Thierry, thegolf range owner coaching me, I came away with a recurrent handicap feeling. On the course

bearing a worsening spine pains. at short intervals I hunker down and stretch my spine for amoment, searching the source for relieve in the years of dancing. Raised to long fairwaysand called out in silence to myself;'R ule number one Return to basic .' Irecuperated swings, enabling shotsalong a Two Handicap member,against my eighteen. But, not where Ileft off when once golf seemed bodymechanics by daily routine strikingballs by the buckets on the drivingrange.

a Tee Off group. At my turn to play I had sight on the same returning sun dabbed brownfairways dissolving in greenish waters seeping grass stains, as a modesty of my upbringing.Through unrelenting drought period, confusing my perspective of the Kyalami Country Clubwith adverse effect on my swings. Directly measurable and piling up these vacillatingfactors. Men were billowing oaks' growth in a moment, from a grass blade to a centenary oldtrees. Standing in the Tee Box, I sensed their aggravating invasive behavior. Very proper

soap bubbles afloat with their thoughts came popping to voice in my minds; 'Why must I bewith this crowd Why this guy Why...' The pressure rose for a stronghold position. Oneroot at the time, uprooted, extrapolating a crawl dithering mental frustrations that drove meto neglect, and withdraw from the clubbing society.

Driving on weekdays in an air-conditioned ambiance en route to check out theprogress on my construction sites. I pulled up at golf courses. In the shade of trees, openedthe Mercedes trunk to find the lie of the golf bag in wheels like a pet taking advantage of alarge edge to edge carpet. I pulled out a Wood, a 7 Iron, Wedge and Putter. Moments later Istepped through a desert club house. Emerging from the shaded interior, at my feet ableeding fluorescent greenery flowed through a far distant shallow valley. Swell of foliageperched plumbed in casted shades blotching the greens. Leafy palms open like a school of

fish in the same frame of mind, of a crowns happily disappearing in a glaring sunlight. I strollby the various species, striking balls, accompanied and far from prejudgments, stigma, fromthe moment I Teed Off witness and gay, exulting at ball bites the ground to end a roll alongthe fairways. Getting nearer by every strike, the silent straggling admirers took distance,giving room to chip onto the greens. Scarce when putting the ball to roll into the cup. Holeafter hole breathing riverside air. On the ninth hole and getting anxious to take up dutywaiting for me, a revelation in scoring pars, at extremes of psychic influence, I doubt aboutreconfiguring my bio-mechanics for all circumstances.

My moments alone at Thierry's Driving Range were counted, to share with my boysin the early stages of the townshipi

development, which brought at

color of Tee. Searching a virgin spot of grass, he stepped off and over. Bends down plantingthe Tee. Placing the ball, and rising to lining up his feet, stands back and with halve cutdown shaft takes practice swings. All in time in a sweeping staircase flow, thinking outevery step of the way strikes the ball off the Tee while were all watching a ball in flight,imperative I spot biting the ground and roll till still.

The lanky newcomer faced in our direction, without seeing the child's efforts of the

demanding game. his egocentric blame fixation with piercing eyesight burned my neck.Every so often the men's upheaval increasingly calling me to inadvertently glimpse at them.Unwittingly branded to mind the newcomer's continued shifting eyes while keeping up adiscussion, which ascertains we were at the center of attention. I grew to decipher the latecomer's complains targeting my two boys, as I stood by in turn Teeing Off.

We stepped off going after the lie of our ball, while a comfortable countryside leisurestroll faded away, wishing for these desert weekday rounds. I reasoned to sustain thehurdles of these upheaval frustrations. Held back from breaking in on the friendly chat, thecost of reprisal on a first come first Teeing Off, too expensive to bear. Instead conceded totheir sarcasm, wiping from sight and mind adults forever forgetting once they were thatchild.

The first green was close by, in allowing no sooner us off the Tee a psychologicalrelief, waving the golf idiot in the Tee Box a courteous passage through if only to let mylittle boy have his time for the next swing, and overpowering myself form suggestions atevery move he does. After the first hole as a warm up with Irons, I kept count of our threedifferent scores, showing my boys the seriousness of the game.

When the third fairway disappeared in dogleg. Clearing the bend, my little boylagged behind. increasingly I slowed down, gauging his little legs moving at half my pace.Crossing the shallow storm water valley, and climbing the opposite bank, our world spreadwider and gigantic, the longest fairway disappearing into the wayside cropped savanna.

Playing off woods had brought us on the spot to disperse. in a superimposed three layer lieof balls, the perspective changed landscape depths to loose our points of impact. Myeldest boy relented his loss of patience toward his brother, and moved off right up hill. Icrisscrossed the course in search for the lie of their ball, to be left feeling our little groupbreaking up, while behind crowds build a curved wall. I summarized, from a mental bird'seye view the course, felt for my little boy in a spot where everything is twice the size for me,and while I double to comprehension the perspective from my boys point of view, I sensed abulldozing impatience build up behind me.

Steamrolling drivers emerged from the crowd, whizzed my boys and me flat on theground by flying balls, while a panoramic view, silhouetted statuettes from progressing onthe far distant fairway toward the bridge. Near the intermediate green, figures in slowmotion in their rights, in turn were chipping and putting. The arrogant group of men camein from behind, walked on through at liberty after their balls. Stuck in their pride, didn'tsquint back an apology, while in turn they were held back from claiming the green.

I grew wise avoiding waves of groups, to the free fairway that rolls out the valley,

where I first ignored my little boy whining; I'm tired this is tiring. Neither did I bring myselfto is age. Envisaging a steadfast progress completing the course without ever a shortcuts tothe club house entering my mind. Searching unimagined spots for balls. Found, and onstand by the open space where balls displayed kangaroo hops along the fairway. Dragginggolf bags near to the green and with a wedge chip to watch ball roll in mischief till puttedaway in the cup. In the hollow of these days, we headed off for the concrete bridge that

carried aloft the main Kyalami Bryanston road over the stream. Teeing Off a return toprolong the Jukskei River streaming amongst hypo boulders. Though my restlessnessmind and my boys both the ruling elements of fire ii the youngest calm proceeding by the

rules, while senior by tree years, and restless spurring flames in abundance, which neitherthe sprinklers on greens, or fairways pumping river water all year round tamed. For my littleboy, not serious about the game, I pointed to his relief at the greens below the club house,insisting the circuit coming to its end, with the promise of a terrace drink before heading forhome.
