I’m a husband, father, entrepreneur, mentor, and an irredeemable golf addict. Possibly like you, my big hairy audacious goal (vision) is to make a positive dent in this world. I write about creating better leaders, workers, and people. I also write about my experiences in all aspects of my life. These ideas are my experiences living & learning through my own core values; integrity, authenticity, leadership, inspire, and health.

Becoming Par | Chip & Pitch Shots

B

This lesson covers a little bit on creating chip shots and pitch shots. Doug wanted me to simplify my approach to a chip shot. He told me the easiest stroke in golf should be the putting stroke, so why not try to replicate a putting stroke for the chip. He had the ball more center of the stance, weight forward and use a full putting stroke to strike the ball. Important to note, do not slow down...

Becoming Par | Off-Season Training Progress

B

As promised, I will continue to post my results on my personal training with Clance Laylor @ Laylor Performance Systems. After the first program, we did a BioSignature measurement and the results are quite good. Although afterward, I went on an one week cruise for a Poker Tournament and ate too much, and the Christmas dinners kept coming and coming when we got back, it’s time to shake that...

Becoming Par | Swing Shortening & The Whip

B

Today, I’ve made one critical discovery that I think changed my swing thoughts completely. I am not sure if it is positive, or negative, but I do know is that I got my swing speed quite a bit higher using a lot less effort. This discovery came to me as I was watching Bruce Lee (a documentary) and Googling the concept of his intial martial art style, Wing Chun. As some of you might know...

Becoming Par | Driver Time

B

Today, I told Doug (since I only have like 3-4 lessons left) that I wanted to get some tips and understanding of the driver (and the last 2 lessons on chipping, pitching). So we went over my driver and what I’ve noticed is that I am coming over the top (outside in swing) and coming across the ball way too fast which I think would result in slices and loss of distance. Also, I tend to over...

NAAAP @ Harvest Food Bank

Today was a cold day, but we were once again able to help pack food for people who are in need. The team at NAAAP along with other volunteers (Perry, Nalini, Anh & Josh) for helping out. We look forward to this next year.
Did you know? Cans without an expiry date typically means that they can actually sit on a shelf for a lifetime? Yes, more than 100 years.

Royal Poker Tour 2010

R

In 2009 when I was on the Advertures of the Sea, I won a 50 people sit & go tournament to secure me tickets for 2 and a seat at the RPT main event that took place December 11th to 18th, 2010 on the Oasis of the Sea (the biggest cruise boat at its time). This event had approximately 300 people competing, and the tournament was played in 5 days.
