Hello members of the Ottawa Golf forums!

I plan to begin playing golf soon, but my parents are sort of against this idea until next year (main problem is transportation, as my parents work for most of the day). Any advice on what to do to convince them to let me play?

Also, any advice on what to do/where to go starting off? I live in the new Barrhaven area (close to Farmboy).

Thanks in advance! From what I've read, this forum seems like a very friendly community
