Dad worked 6 days a week....12-14 hrs/day being a partner/GM of a restaurant....so I wanted to spend time with him.
I can't remember the exact details....it was so long ago.
Likely when I was 6 or 7....would tag along with Dad at night to the driving range.
My 1st club was a beat up driver likely from the 40's or 50's....cut down and black electrical tape was used as a grip.
1st set was a used 7 piece set...Powerbuilt for juniors.
No children's spikes back then...so Dad bought me a plain white pair of ladies spikes.
