Irons Only at Billy Caldwell Golf Course

Episode 1

Last piece I wrote was titled, “I’m in Shambles.” I am not playing good golf right now.

But I have an idea.

I took this idea to Billy Caldwell Golf Course. It’s one of the Cook County Forest Preserve Courses.

9 holes. Only 15 minutes from Lincoln Park. The perfect course to go out and practice shots you don’t normally hit.

It’s delightful.

I left the driver at home. The irons needed real work. I am so so so determined to be a good iron player. And, well... they still need work. Here’s how it went.
