The Boy is a Natural at Miniature Golf
February 25, 2007 5 Comments
While I did post a lower score than my 3 year (to be fair he will be 4 next week so it isn’t as bad as it looks) old son at miniature golf today, he’s quite the natural. He handles the rubber putter better than I do.



You whooped my ass at golf last year in San Diego so I can only imagine how good you son will be. He looks like a lefty to me.
He’s right handed, but he wants to swing the golf club lefty. I’ve got both right and left handed clubs for him so whichever way he goes, he’ll be covered. He’s really good at hitting the plastic balls around the backyard. Maybe its time to get him out on the range or at least some lessons.
Looks like a prodigy to me (righty, but plays lefty, AND putts cross handed?)
I’m left handed, I notice these things….
I putt lefty and cross handed myself.
But I swing righty.
I am a relative beginner, and putt cross-handed – it feels more natural to me and the ball goes in the hole!
However, I have struggled with the traditional hold for my swing, and have had problems hitting the ball until I started to use the cross-handed method for my swing. Now I hit the ball strongly, more confidently and accurately.
Should I continue swinging crosshanded or continue to pratice the more conventional way?
I’m right handed for most tasks, but have a strong left hand and arm.
Any advice, please?
