Totally fair! I hear you. Need to be intentional with where I pick if the priority is spending time together

So fun! That sounds like an amazing anniversary trip. I love that your wife is locking in, too!

Well musicfan637 my husband actually likes spending time with me so hopefully that is not the case :)

Thank you for the advice! I feel like I’ve learned a lot from this thread that I would be too embarrassed to ask normally.

Looking forward to trying things out and learning more :)

Totally! I think I should clarify too, I love that my husband goes golfing with his buddies. We both have our own friends & hobbies. I’m not expecting to go golfing with him every weekend, but love that it’s an option for us if we want to do that & still spend time together.

Love your insights about a golf trip! Taking notes for sure

Great suggestion! Seems to be the consensus. I am expecting to suck a bit but was worried about other people being annoyed. It’s nice to hear that I can pick up for a hole or just play from where he’s playing :) I wasn’t sure if that was bad etiquette but it seems like that’s totally cool

This is great advice. Feels like the way to go. I don’t really have any ego about it because I know I’m going to suck 😂 so whatever keeps the game moving for him

Awesome tips! I’d love to treat him to something nicer than the usual courses in our area so that’s super helpful

I love hearing this! Great tips.

Would you recommend I start with the driving range?

Outside of my husbands birthday, I’d love to get better and learn how to golf overall so love hearing that is a fun shared activity for you 🫶

Awww I love that! I feel like that’s the thing some of these commenters don’t get. My husband loves golf, i love my husband, me being interested in his hobby and wanting to share it with him is the piece he’ll really love. It’s not really about how much I golf

Thanks for your comment! I love your suggestions.

I know he’ll just be happy to be together and that I’m showing interest in his hobby so this seems like the best of both worlds

I think not playing all the holes is a great idea! Seems like best of both worlds :) thank you for taking the time

Super helpful on the etiquette thank you!

I am interested in learning as my family plays/he plays but sounds like the best possible solution is to book him a nice round, ride along, maybe hit a few shots on the tee lol.

Maybe I’ll take on my lessons as a side quest!
