Not About Golf

Not About Golf is a handbook for the golf curious that can inspire you to enhance your business connections, fall in love, and build a unique and fun community. You''ll also get in shape while walking, talking, and learning the language of golf. And, if you''re really lucky, as Mike Berland has been, you may have the opportunity to travel the world experiencing beautiful natural settings, the great outdoors, and lasting relationships, both personal and professional. Golf is also getting more diverse, rapidly becoming the game everyone can play. Women have broken the mould of golf tradition, as golf becomes one of the fastest growing sports for women in the country. There are now over 6.4 million female golfers in the United States and 38% of all golfers under the age of 18 are girls. People of colour are embracing the sport as they never have before. And an influx of young players is challenging the stereotype of golf as just a game for seniors. The good news about golf is it''s never too late to start. Golf is a sport you can play for the rest of your life, whether you play on simulators at indoor bars, or you score an invitation to one of the most spectacular golf courses in the world. This character building sport which requires emotional control and honesty is a laboratory for positive life-skills, such as; generosity, humility, humour, kindness, and friendship. Golf teaches us to live in the moment, it teaches us to network and to do business, but at the end of the day this book isn''t about golf. It''s about how each swing, each course, each day can always be better than the last. It''s about hope, optimism, and enjoying nature with your community. It''s not about golf. It''s about you.
