About the Book
|
|
As a twenty-five-year plus Golf Professional, Chris Rowe tells stories through his experiences in the golf business. Golf Shops are places where people meet to tell stories not only about their round, but about life. When you go to a Starbucks you hear conversations all around you as you order you latte. When you get your haircut there are conversations going on in every chair. Taking time to listen and tell members and their guests different stories makes the golf shop a fun place to enjoy a few laughs and hang with the golf pros. Golf professionals get to hear it all from success to failures. I've given lessons to Billionaires and discounted lessons to college golfers trying to get better. The one thing we all have in common on the golf course is our deepest insecurities and flaws come out on the opening tee shot. Your wallet size doesn't matter when you put the tee in the ground and the golf professional announces your name. Golf is the greatest game because you can play it all your life. I've never seen an eighty year old man play football or baseball, but you see it every day on the links. Regardless of what you shoot at the end of the day the stories told after the round are what makes golf such a special game. Hope you enjoy my third book Golf Shops, Coffee Shops and Barbershops.
