Just Fore Fun golf in Champaign is a little golf oasis nestled between interstate roads and some storage warehouses. It's definitely not something you'd find if you weren't looking for it. Here, Meteorologist Hanna Brewer met an instructor who was going to help her find my way into the golf world.

Tom Hebert has been golfing for almost thirty years.  He started as a kid with a junky set of clubs but soon fell in love with the sport.

Turns out it is a very meticulous sport requiring massive amounts of patience and finesse. There are hundreds of factors to consider during the swing, and consequently hundreds of things that can go wrong sending the ball flying int he wrong direction. Or not at all.

Hebert says it's a great game because you're constantly put up against yourself to see if you can improve.  Although the day started with a few hitches, Hanna considers herself a golf convert now and plans to have more adventures on the golf course.
