Golf Instructors Looking For Other Career Options.


I just got a message from a friend of mine that is also a fellow golf instructor.  He was very upset.  He says that we need to start looking for another line of work.  He just observed something that is going to put all of us out of business.

While watching The Golf Channel this morning he observed infomercials where Rick Smith, Hank Haney, and Bobby Clampett are all giving away secrets that they have learned from tour players or while on tour.

have to sign an oath not to reveal them. Then you have these sneaky instructors drugging them or just getting them drunk and stealing them.  Now they are going to give them away free.

Guess there is a silver ling to everything.
