On the Importance of Golf

 In school, we read essays about the Importance of something or the other. Oscar Wilde wrote The Importance of Being Earnest. So I thought I should write about the importance of Golf.


It is important to play a sport, if you want to get health benefits. Golf is also one you could try, especially if you think you have the potential to be a CEO.. no, just kidding. You can always be the CEO of your own brand! It helps if you play Golf, in either case!'

Like MBA jargon, Golf jargon is also impressive. Birdies and Bogies, Hole-in-one, Sand bunkers, Putters and Drivers, and Caddies and Golf Carts make up the world of Golf, among other things. A tee shot is not after consuming tea, but after placing the ball on a tee- a privilege you have for the first shot on each hole. A Hole-in-one, of course, is like a Lifetime Achievement Award in any other field. It may happen, or it may not.

What Golf teaches you, cannot be measured with ordinary metrics. You have to experience the game to learn what it has to teach you.

Latch on to a friend who is a member, is my advice. Getting a membership is a dream in most cases, but the point is, you don't need one to start playing. Pay as you play, as a guest who accompanies a member.
