      Alex Loves Golf - CE Butler

      www.cebutlerbooks.com

      ––––––––

      For my first golfing buddies:

      CJ, Craig, Squirrel, and Mancini

      Chapter 1

      It was Saturday morning and eight-year-old Alex Miller knew what that meant.

      He wasn’t going to have to mow the lawn or clean the gutters. According to his dad, he still wasn’t old enough to do those things anyway. He wasn’t going to have to clean his room – he’d done that the previous Saturday and had done his best to keep it clean. He wasn’t even going to have to clean the cars or the garage. But this was just as bad.

      He was going to the golf course with his father.

      Mr. Miller loved golf more than a lot of fathers loved their pets. He waited all week to play the game. Once he was home from work, he typically used the time before dinner was ready to clean his golf clubs or whack a few balls into a net in the back yard that served as a makeshift driving range.

      If there was time, he’d actually visit the driving range.

      Alex, on the other hand, hated golf. He enjoyed being outdoors and he enjoyed hanging out with his father. It was the game itself that Alex didn’t like.

      It was too serious, he thought. Saturdays on the golf course made Alex picture men who claimed to be happy to be there, though their attitude seemed to prove otherwise. There were occasional outbursts of anger.

      This doesn’t seem like fun, Alex thought to himself as he loaded his golf starter set into his father’s car. The set included all the basic clubs, cut down to size from one of his dad’s older sets. He’d asked for a new set from the local sporting goods store but Mr. Miller insisted he didn’t need those clubs – yet, anyway.

      "Let’s see you take the game a little more seriously before
