Chaelynn Boutin may only be in her early 30s, but she’s already been golfing for more than 20 years.
The Carlyle resident first picked up a set of golf clubs around age ten and hasn’t really put them down since.
Boutin golfed competitively from Grades 7-12 while attending high school in Kipling.
“I more or less got started with the school program,” Boutin said. “We golfed in tournaments and things like that.”
A long-time member of the Carlyle Golf Club, Boutin is a regular at the Ladies’ Night held there Tuesday evenings. She can usually be found on the course a couple other nights of the week as well.
“I do like to try and golf on other courses, but it's just so convenient to golf here in Carlyle and we do have a beautiful course.”
If you’re looking for a fun night out, Boutin suggests checking out both Ladies’ Night and Pairs’ Night at the Carlyle Golf Club, as they’re always looking for more golfers.
Boutin enjoys the social aspects of golf as well as the opportunity to help others improve their game.
“I just like to go out and have fun. It's fun to golf with girlfriends and family,” Boutin said. “I love golfing with everybody [at] different aspects [of their golfing career]. If you're just learning how to golf or if you’ve been golfing for years and years, I'm there to help people as much as I can. I'm not a great coach, but like to give pointers if I can.”
