Or is there?  Lets take a serious look at the question “Is there more to life than playing Golf?”

First, we have to eat and drink.  I have yet to go to a golf club that does not have a restaurant or at least a vending machine.  We can fulfill all our nutritional requirements at most golf courses.

Second, we need sleep.  Have you ever tried, or know someone who has tried to get onto Bethpage Black Course.  Where do they sleep, in their cars, that’s where.  So let me ask you this.  Why can’t you sleep in your car at any golf course in the country.

Third, we have family obligations.  Well, this is easy.  Most golf courses are closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas anyway.  And, if you have the resources a private country club has some great amenities that can keep the family entertained for a few hours.

Fourth, we have to work.  Have you ever heard of vacation and sick time.  Also, you will have to “entertain” clients from time to time.  It is not written anywhere that your golf buddies can not also be clients.  Use your head.

Like I said, there is more to life than playing golf.  There is planning, a couple of holidays, and you might even be down for 3 days while your clubs get re-gripped.

Remember.  Golf is Serious, life is a game.
