I’ve been in the business for a couple decades and have never met a nicer guy. One of Oceanside’s finest! I find it very refreshing hearing stories from the younger generation of golf enthusiasts. Im also quite positive if you take the time to tell Jacob about your wedge shot patterns he is a going to not only make your wedge shine but make you a better player. He’s the real deal.

All of the voices in the anti-Kavanagh demonstrations were women voices…. older and younger millennial man-hating man-bashing feminists marching, screaming, demonstrating against the rule of law. Men are silent, hiding, frightened. These crazed women hate old white men… their fathers. Hide on the golf course, cowards.

    Bruce seems to think,(using that term loosely), rather than join women protesting a child molesting, drunk for Supreme Court
    many men hide on the golf course, with their wedge by their side.

Guys talk about wanting “Tour Quality” pieces and getting to see the real craftsmen behind them. This guy is learning, but is miles behind talents liike Aaron Dill, Rusty Estes and a couple others. What? Those names aren’t familiar? That is because they were not built overnight on social media, with pretty pictures and fluff. Rusty is the REAL man behind Fourteen Tour clubs and works his butt off in an independent tour van. Aaron is someone who impressed Mr Vokey enough in a very short time, that Bob knew, “this is the guy!” You’ve managed a second fluff piece on a personality built on pretty pictures and social media prowess. Congratulations.
