Once Upon A Tee time

Once Upon a Tee Time is a simple story, but don't be fooled; it can also deliver a very powerful punch. For many, it will most likely conjure up a fond childhood memory, or recall what it was like to come of age during far less complicated times.Others, who like taking a deeper dive into things, are likely to uncover a series of subtle, underlying messages. Messages that extol many of the values held dearly by generations past...and suggest they still hold true today.Excerpts from ForewordWritten by Chuck Lynch, PGAOnce Upon a Tee TimeMany a great golfer has been quoted for having stated something profound about the game of golf, and how playing it compares in so many ways to playing the game of life. Every new hole provides us with new challenges and opportunities, as does every new day in life. Every mistake we make is but a lesson to learn from; every success, a testament to our having learned from those lessons. Yet, no matter how good we become at playing the game, there's always room for improvement. After reading Once Upon a Tee Time, I couldn't help but to recall a powerful quote from Jack Nicklaus: "You have to trust your kids. They have to experience life, and you just hope you've provided them a foundation for what's right and what isn't."
