When my first child was born, I could literally see the course I was *supposed* to be playing that day from the window of the hospital!
She came about 10 days early, so I figured I was good to go, one last round before I became a dad… then my wife’s water broke at 11pm the night before, and I ended up sending my friend a picture of my new baby at 7am the next day to let him know I couldn’t make it.
9 years later, and I’m taking her and my son out for 9 holes tonight!
Congrats, OP!

Sometimes labour can last a pretty long time. Worth the risk I reckon.

Nice of you to wait with your wife until the UPS guy arrives… I can only imagine how many of these he has to go to.

Could probably fit 9 in

Do it. You won’t.

Just keep playing until you get to that hole that’s adjacent to the hospital and hop the fence.

Don’t really have to be there until she is like 10 cm dilated. That could be hours.

Finally, someone posted a course I’ve played! If I wasn’t at work tomorrow, I’d offer to nip down from Shef and join you. Best wishes (for the 9)!

Don’t worry, you’ll have plenty of time to play once the kid comes…… /s

Worst case, 9 Holes.
Best case, Hole in one and you stay for drinks after.

First kid? If so, she will be in labor for hours. You can’t def get a full 18 if you want. Make sure to turn off your phone to avoid stress

Go for it, I’m sure she’ll find someone to raise your child
It’s not yours anyway so go play
Hope you brought a junior set, gotta start em young
Love how you’re actually facing the course 😂
Go for it this could take hours.
I mean…. A little driving range time never hurt nobody.
Just dont miss the birth part and youll survive to see another kid.
/s for all the people that think Im actually advocating golf > family
Didn’t expect to see a local course on here
