I remember one story about my Dad I found out after he passed away.
I knew that he played golf when I was a baby but stopped a few years later.
But what I didn’t know was why he started.
Apparently he knew his boss the local fire chief was retiring and my Dad wanted his job and knew that if he played golf with the guy he would recommend my Dad for the job.
So first day he is playing golf with the guy he asks my Dad how was he so good? The man played golf for years and my Dad was in his 30s yet almost beating him. My Dad almost even got a hole in one.
My Dad tells the guy the truth was it was his first time playing. He spent the last 4 months though reading all the books he could on the game and ways to improve your game.
My Dad learned to play golf by never playing it and just reading books. He didn’t even own a set of golf clubs till a week before he went golfing with the guy. Lol
