For Paul Cella...

...a couple of looks at how it's done, to be committed to memory and taken to the course:

Such an excellent swing!

My dad brought me one of those Taylor Made drivers with the weighted plugs, this one weighted to correct my incorrigible slice. Seems to help some -- seriously.

I believe you. It's been a while since I've seen you swing, so if you can make your way down to Florida, I'd be glad to have a look...

Taylor Made, huh? Your dad spoils you. In the video Bern's swinging a Callaway, one of several gotten for free while on tour. She gives me the leftovers.

Well, I had been using a knock-off driver that actually exaggerated my slice -- a really pathetic club which, in justice, ought to have taken a long soak in the pond months ago.

Why don't you make your way up to Georgia instead?

I'll think about it. I'm always thinking about it.

You're supposed to let other people say that.

I hope you hotshots will indulge me a brief narrative of Why Golf Will Piss You Off:

Yesterday afternoon I played a quick nine. Three times I was looking at a makable birdie putt. All three were good putts, just off line; disappointing in the sense that I could not come out with even one birdie, but satisfactory in the sense that tap-in pars tend to be.

The other six holes?

All double bogeys.

Golf is mostly a series of lessons in humiliation. But we keep going back for more.
