"I've been able to shave 8 strokes off my game. I just skip a par 3 hole" - Bob Hope

I've played off and on since high school, never a sport I wanted to take too seriously, felt it would take some of the enjoyment out of it. I was more into football and baseball.

Haven't played since retiring but now that the weather is cooler in Az I'll get back out there.

I remember reading an interview with some pro awhile back and they asked him what his favorite thing about golf was. He replied "After hitting an errant shot and coming up on a terrible lie, you think about giving up the game altogether. But then you swing, making contact with the ball and see a beautiful soaring shot, one you didn't think possible, straight at the hole and all is right again". That's my feeling about the game.

And my favorite player was Payne Stewart, my God he had a beautiful swing along with his stand out fashion sense. His untimely death was a great loss to the game.
