Re: Question to ponder

Yeah, I agree. I was just saying that golf is like no other sport in that you can take an avg joe and make him better than most golfers out there. On the other hand its not so with basketball, baseball, hockey, football. well you get my point. All those require some degree of athletic natural gift where as in golf it not really necessary.

We are not talking about getting as good as tiger woods or most tour pros. They I would agree do have some gifts of talent. But you can, I think make an avg golfer better than 90% of the golfers out there with the proper coaching and practice. Not the same with the other sports.

I would even venture to say that if you did work with tiger woods or the likes of him and the coaches on that level, you would get to be pretty close to tour player in ability although probably not consistency. wouldnt it be nice to shoot the low 70's and high 60's on a regular basis. Again we are also not playing on the same level courses as the tour players either.
