I have been golfing since I was in 7th grade. I remember those days like it was yesterday. My mom would pick my friends up and drop us off at the local executive course where we were too young to rent golf carts and had to use push carts. We would play 18 and then use the pro shops landline to call another parent to come pick us all up. Every night before a round I would be too excited to go to bed, the anticipation for the early morning round was too much.

I still get worked up the night before to this day but the reasons might be a little bit more different. Maybe the weather is going to be amazing or I have never played the course before and I'm excited for change. No matter the reason my love for golf hasn't waivered in 25 years. There have been ups and downs of course but that's my fault, not golfs.

This picture is one of my more happier moments in golf. Growing up in Phoenix, AZ TPC Scottsdale was always on the bucket list. I got to play the Stadium course and was able to par the infamous hole 16.
