A Portrait of a Designer as a Young Gamer

Why do I get up in the morning and do what I do? This is the big question we all should be asking ourselves until we know it like a 3 ft. putt

Why do I get up in the morning and do what I do? Â This is the big question we all should be asking ourselves until we know it like Â a 3 ft. putt. Â All of us know in our hearts that if you do what you love and enjoy that, your life and those around you will be happy and for the most part peaceful. Â Yet, we continue to work on those things that do not bring us true happiness. Â Needless to say there are many out there who love to crunch numbers on spreadsheets for 8 hours a day eeking out small profit margins on large sums of cash, but not me!

As long as I can remember my life has always been about the game of ice hockey, yet - I work in the golf industry. Â Does this make any sense at all? Â Why would I be interested in the game of golf? Â It's justÂ plain difficult, cost too much, and you have to get all dressed up to play! Â What is it about the game of golf that it can grab you by your very being and hurl you into another place. A place where only you can go. Â That place within all of us that we dare to dream few enough. Â Sure I got the bug! Â I got it big time.

Awwww, talk about a clip finishing just when it was getting interesting, lol. Would have been more appropriate for the clip to say 'Starring.... Augusta National' as we didn't see any of the names shown actually 'star' in the clip, :-) although I do appreciate it is much of their work that has brought about what the clip contained, lol. I know Rome wasn't built in a day, and don't expect 'Perfect Golf' to be either, but these teaser blog posts are doing nothing for the blood pressure and the heart rate, lol. Keep 'em coming guys.

I agree Daz. And I also see a new, familiar name in the credits, Andrew Jones. Is this the Andrew Jones (Mogulbasher) from apcd.com? Or just a same name person? Jerry

Jez, My guess is the same AJ you are thinking of, as he was heavily involved in the various renditions of Augusta National which we currently have on Links 2003.
