If you are a clubmaker, have you ever experience a moment when people ask what you do and they wonder what it is.

"What do you do for a living?"
"I'm a Golf clubmaker..."
"Huh?!, what"

What do you usually do in that moment? Explaining a detail job description to that fella?

Tell them there's a lot of people spending a lot of money on golf and as Warren Buffet said, "When it's raining gold, reach for a bucket". But if it was me, I would probably respond with, "Which of those individual words did you not understand?"

I tell people I'm a Software Engineer, and they ask how to insert a picture in a MS Word document or what computer they should get their Grandma? I guess it could be worse... I could be a doctor.

      Vokey or Bettinardi Wedges

      I don't know what to tell you. You can't test wedges with range balls, and you have a LOT more info to gather before you can begin to really even test anything else, either.

      Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.

      New, College Golfer Trying to Go Pro

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.
