I’ve just finished four beginner golf lessons. Any advice on progressing out on a course, buying gear, or general tips and tricks?

Titleist blades in x-stiff shafts

Nice! Have fun. 2nd swing has some good used clubs for cheaper. If you can go out on a course and book it (late afternoon or weekday) when you don’t have a group directly before or after you it takes some pressure off

2nd Swing is great. Another tip? Be okay w fact that once you play there’ll be peaks and valleys, especially early on. That’s golf—so don’t get frustrated. Keep swinging. Amazing game

What’s your advice to start learning golf in metropolitan such as NYC? Is driving range a good place to start? Thx

In NYC you can start at Chelsea piers! That’s what I did :) and there’s some good golf clubs around too! Five Boroughs Golf Club is great

If you want to improve, keep going to the range and try to be on the course every week. See if you can get the same amount of hours at the range as being on the course. Identify weak points/skill gaps and have lesson to improve specifics. The most fun for me was going to range and course with buddies, sneaking in beers and losing a ton of balls. Just have fun!!

Check Facebook marketplace you might snag a set of clubs for free or cheap

Also take up skiing for the winter so you can have year-round lifelong sports/hobbies that are so expensive you’ll want to keep progressing in your career

I already do this 😩

Did anyone else adopt the new Florida Wonders curriculum? We just adopted it this school year, and I teach 4th grade. My team and I have not found a good flow, schedule, or whatever you want to call it. We feel like it teaches too many skills in one lesson, and we are not able to truly teach anything “deep” enough for students to master. Does anyone have any insight? What do you do? Do you like the curriculum? Why or why not? Would you be willing to share what you do weekly/daily? Thanks!

I got an email last night from a 7th-grade parent because her son said I mentioned the words "male privilege" in class, and she is very concerned about how that is related to ELA (she said "reading"), and she is concerned about this being taught in public schools. To be clear, I didn't do a lesson on this subject but we did discuss rights versus privileges. I've had multiple parents contact the school/get upset with me because of things like his. It's exhausting... Thoughts?
