And that&#8217;s really okay, you are in paradise. There&#8217;s also plenty\u00a0 to do: snorkeling, diving, sailing, watching sunsets, mixing drinks&#8230; But then you miss being challenged in a way that only golf can provide.\u00a0 What do you do?\u00a0 Naturally, you reinvent the game of golf.\u00a0 And that is exactly how golf was pioneered on this Caribbean Island of Bonaire.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_661\" style=\"width: 432px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-661\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-661\" title=\"Blue Caribbean Water\" src=\"https:\/\/rknstudio.com\/osteopilateswork\/images\/wordpress\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Bonaire-boat-blue-water-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Imagine you inexplicably find yourself living on an idyllic Caribbean Island.

On the east coat, the ocean strikes fiercely and the wind blows just sub-gale force all day on any given day. The landscape is harsh.\u00a0 Former coral beds, ancient cliffs and cactus forests dominate the landscape.\u00a0 Imagine the east coast of Bonaire as the Caribbean version of the wilds of Scotland where golf purportedly had its start.\u00a0\u00a0 Although the Netherlands have a very strong claim, as well, to the beginnings of this game.\u00a0 Making perfect poetic sense that here we are on the Dutch island of Bonaire, again creating the game of golf to suit the natural, untamed local environment.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_662\" style=\"width: 497px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-662\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-662\" title=\"Golf Bonaire waves\" src=\"https:\/\/rknstudio.com\/osteopilateswork\/images\/wordpress\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Golf-Bonaire-waves-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"The waves on the east coast strike fiercely.

It&#8217;s not uncommon to see the spray shoot 50 feet in the air.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Our 21st century golf pioneer of Bonaire is Artie de Vries.\u00a0 Artie occasionally played golf on the neighboring island of Curacao but became frustrated continually returning to the game un-practiced and unprepared.\u00a0 Back home on Bonaire he began searching for places to hit a golf ball.\u00a0 He noticed that the flamingo-inhabited lake next to the airport gave way to a sandy driving range-esque field after each rainy season.\u00a0 That could possibly serve his purposes.\u00a0 However, as an instructor at a vocational school on Bonaire, he was searching for solitude from students and parents.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_663\" style=\"width: 570px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-663\" class=\"size-large wp-image-663\" title=\"Golf Bonaire Hole 12\" src=\"https:\/\/rknstudio.com\/osteopilateswork\/images\/wordpress\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Golf-Bonaire-HOle-12-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"The goats gather around andn manicure the Brown for Hole #12\" width=\"560\" height=\"372\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-663\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The goats gather around and manicure the Brown for Hole #12<\/p><\/div>\n<p>To avoid the crowds he drove far away (twenty minutes) to the less tropical, less-inhabited east side of the island.\u00a0 Artie began hitting balls on top of the old coral beds with the ocean breaking high against the rocks just yards to the west. Hit the balls. Collect the balls.\u00a0 Repeat.\u00a0 Losing a good percentage to the coral each time, he queried about a sandier solution.<\/p>\n<p>In cooperation with Win Emerenciana, Artie\u2019s practice range was moved just slightly south.\u00a0 A lot more cactus, a sandier surface and still the waves beating just yards away.\u00a0 Driving home from his isolated driving range, his golf clubs peaked interest of other island-stranded golfers.\u00a0 A few more golf addicts braved the heat, the wind and the eastern wilds of Bonaire to hit balls at this makeshift, environmental driving range.\u00a0 After the driving range, the players wanted the challenge of a target.\u00a0 Old tires were laid out through a cactus maze.\u00a0 Then as these things always happen, one thing led to another and 10 years after Artie began hitting balls atop the coral beds, an 18-hole course was created.\u00a0 Not a single cactus was moved. The wildlife, iguanas, goats and the endangered African Nubian Ass, always maintains privileges over golfers.\u00a0 Water is not wasted on grass-filled fairways.\u00a0 Tee Boxes are built from mounds of coral. At the end of each fairway you will find \u201cBrowns\u201d instead of \u201cGreens\u201d because \u201cTo respect and maintain the existing environment\u201d is\u00a0one of the main principals at the Piedra So Golf Club.\u00a0 This course is created completely and respectfully from the local, natural environment.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_664\" style=\"width: 589px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-664\" class=\"size-large wp-image-664\" title=\"Golf Bonaire Fairway\" src=\"https:\/\/rknstudio.com\/osteopilateswork\/images\/wordpress\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Golf-Bonaire-fairway-2-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"The fairways were created through the cactus forests.

Following meticulous, and somewhat complex, directions from Su, I wound my way from paved road, to dirt road, to a packed coral road.\u00a0 All leading me to a 3-foot chain link gate. On the gate hangs a weather-beaten driftwood sign, complete with yellow welcome finches, that reads, \u201cFor Tee Time Reservations, Call 717.8684\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_665\" style=\"width: 643px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-665\" class=\"size-large wp-image-665\" title=\"Golf on Bonaire\" src=\"https:\/\/rknstudio.com\/osteopilateswork\/images\/wordpress\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Golf-on-Bonaire-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"The faded painted driftwood sign reads: &quot;For Tee Time Reservations Call...&quot; Did you notice the yellow finches?

We started on the driving range.\u00a0 We each hit only about 20 balls. Only 20, because, just like Artie, after you hit the balls, you must retrieve them. Luckily the donkeys (the endangered Asses) were at about the 250-yard mark. With the wind blowing 25 mph head-on off the Caribbean Sea, there was no concern of my ball landing anywhere near the donkeys. Which is good, because like I said, wildlife has the right of way at Piedra So and is not to be disturbed.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_668\" style=\"width: 588px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-668\" class=\"size-large wp-image-668\" title=\"Golf Bonaire donkey small\" src=\"https:\/\/rknstudio.com\/osteopilateswork\/images\/wordpress\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Golf-Bonaire-donkey-small1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"This baby was with his mother just at the first turn off for the course.

The back 9 is less windy and I think she was concerned about taking the uninitiated, me, directly into the strong Bonaire winds on my first day at Piedra So.\u00a0 After all, there was already so much more for the uninitiated to learn.\u2028\u2028Beb led me to the tee box for the 10th hole.\u00a0 The mound of coral marked with the red rock is the ladies\u2019 tee box.\u00a0 Atop the mound lies a grass mat.\u00a0 I pressed my tee into the mat and I was ready to send my first drive down a very picturesque desert fairway. Manicuring of any fairway vegetation is performed by goats, sheep and donkeys. The iguanas serve as Golf Marshal and Rock Kickers. Rock Kickers because I am fairly convinced they have taken it upon themselves to roll rocks out into the middle of the fairway.\u00a0 And then laugh into their scales when any given drive that could land softly in the sand is almost as likely to hit a fairway rock and go flying 20 yards in any unpredictable direction, including into some very forbidding thorny brush.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_671\" style=\"width: 589px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-671\" class=\"size-large wp-image-671\" title=\"Golf Bonaire course Marshal\" src=\"https:\/\/rknstudio.com\/osteopilateswork\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Golf-Bonaire-course-Marshal2-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"The Iguanas sit under the cactus and on the cactus marshaling all golf course activities. \" width=\"579\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rknstudio.com\/osteopilateswork\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Golf-Bonaire-course-Marshal2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rknstudio.com\/osteopilateswork\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Golf-Bonaire-course-Marshal2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rknstudio.com\/osteopilateswork\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Golf-Bonaire-course-Marshal2-250x166.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 579px) 100vw, 579px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-671\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Iguanas sit under the cactus and on the cactus marshaling all golf course activities.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>On my first drive, I aimed 40 yards left to compensate for the wind and the ball landed on the right side of the fairway. I was feeling pretty good. Next we prepared for our first shot from the fairway.\u00a0 Beb smirks and says that every shot gets a tee because the ground is just too hard to hit off.\u00a0 But the ground is mostly coral and is also too hard to press a tee into. So what is the tee? Donkey poo. Yep. Preferably very dry. You just flatten it with your foot and you place your ball on top. I got so used to hunting for and picking up dried donkey poo every time I hit a ball, in preparation for the next shot, that at one point I found myself sharing a personal matter with Beb, all while gesticulating with donkey poo in my hand.\u00a0 But I don\u2019t think Beb noticed, or would have even cared. At that moment she was busy watching a baby goat.\u00a0 \u201cLet\u2019s go this way. The mother has moved away from us and away from the baby.
