(Ep. 1) I guess…. Hello World, huh.
We made it! After a long discussion with my wife, Maria, I have decided to start this endeavor, podcast, mission, goal, or whatever you want to call it. If you know me, I have always been nervous to put myself out there but I am excited for what this holds and where it goes. I am a passionate and optimistic golfer wanting to showcase what the Midwest has to truly offer the golfing world. I want to meet and talk to the people that enjoy and love golf just as much as me, learn their history, and also have some fun along the way. Maybe we can play a course or two as well, or as a goal, every course in Illinois. If you are like me at all, golf is something that you enjoy so much that it takes you away from whatever life is throwing at you and all you can focus on is that illusive birdie or par and grinding away to achieve it. You are always chasing your next great shot and there is nothing better than striping a drive down the middle or making a 30 foot putt. It is a euphoric experience that you remember forever. Golf is a game you can enjoy your entire life so there is no reason to hate anything about it. It pushes you to be your best and is a true test of your will and want to succeed.
So, we will see how this entire endeavor goes. This could be like draining a 15-foot putt for birdie on 18 to shoot your lowest score ever or it could be like when you think you hit the perfect wedge shot from 107 yards right at the pin and you hear your friend say, “Well…. your just off the green.” Either way, it will be one hell of a ride.
