Objectives
To re-enter the “golf world” after years of absence to raise my family, single parenting (five kids).
To work in golf-related public relations, advertising, sales or to be a golf writer, teaching professional or tournament administrator. To grow my website ProGolfTalk.com into a comprehensive resource for
independent golf professionals and mini-tour players.
Profile
From 1979-1981 I tried to make a living as a professional golfer, starting with Orlando-area mini-tours. I was able to stay at it for almost two years. I did not make it to the PGA Tour but trying taught me a lot about competitive golf and myself. After leaving playing for a living I became a teaching pro and continued to play in tournaments. I have had articles published in Golf Illustrated and the Links Letter and I have some video production experience with Wally Armstrong. I have always kept current in the golf world and tend to hold somewhat controversial viewpoints. I see trends in golf that may cause the permanent alteration of the game we all love and I would like to be part of preserving our great game.
