If I Needed Advice From My Caddie,

It Is Nothing New Or Original To Say That Golf Is Played One Stroke At A Time. But It Took Me Many Years To Realize It.

Golf Is Recognized As One Of The More Difficult Games To Play Or Teach. One Reason For This Is That Each Person Necessarily Plays By Feel, And A Feel Is Almost Impossible To Describe.
