The TopGolf Outing
The Rookie and Mom had a rare outing together to TopGolf where Mom got to see the full range of The Rookie‘s once-a-year golf talent… the twisting hook off the left-field wall, the slice over slice running to the Holiday Inn across the street, the infield fly, and multiple wormburners. But on the last shot, the Moneyball, a majestic drive was struck, shimmering in the night air showing off its straight and true path until it landed in gimme range on the 185-yard target. This is the appeal of golf, where you never know when the next good shot will come, but when it does, you forget all the duffs in between.
And thus, the TopGolf scorecard is a lot like the parenting scorecard… a few lesser victories, several more zeroes than desired, but also the occasional Moneyball that makes up for all the lows.
Keep swinging and the Moneyball will come. :-)
