The Gift of Golf
Golf Tips from the Tour sprang forth from a birthday
inspiration for our son, Cole. I felt that the best gift I could give Cole to help him attain his dream
of becoming a PGA TOUR Player was the gift of the knowledge and experience that
led to my success on the PGA TOUR. Now this information is available for others who are
interested to benefit as well.

Golf Green Tip of the Month
April 22, 2009, was Earth Day, a day to celebrate and support our earth and sustainability. Many children have a natural interest in the earth. Kindle that interest and encourage kids to be conscious
of how their actions affect nature. Explain to them that by taking care of the earth, they are taking care of themselves as well since human beings are a part of nature. While spending time with your children on the golf course, pay some extra attention to the surroundings and the wildlife on the golf course. A fun game is to try and name the various species of plants and animals. |

Interview with Golf Coach Steve Williams
I started playing golf at the age of 12 in 1970 and I was smitten from
the start. I soon decided I wanted to play on the PGA TOUR. I was
selected as All American in High school and received several
scholarship offers to colleges and ended up attending the College of
the Sequoias in Visalia, CA and then Fresno State University. |
