What is “The Essence of Golf
There are many factors that are influential to our growing and developing youth, but over the last century, there is an influence, that given its own essence, can teach kids honor, resilience, competitive nature, how to deal with losing and how to deal with winning and how to deal with life in general. That influence is sports and sports figures and there has never been such a positive influence, if athletes follow the true essence of sports, on youth in the history of humanities existence of this planet. I was in awe by great quarterbacks, baseball players and great golfers when growing up. Watching these great athletes was a true inspiration for me to apply the best I could be at anything I did and I chose to be an entrepreneur, while working on my golf talent on the Houston Amateur tour and a few others. Over the decades, since sports has become a daily part of human’s lives, the influence of sports and sports figures have touched every aspect of our youth, from building much needed hospitals to influencing our youth to excel in sports and all of life.
At Tee Box Times, we are all about the term “The Essence of Golf” and or “The Essence of Sports”. Somewhere around the turn of the century and especially when radio and television became a medium to bring the games closer to us, the influence of sports evolved into the most strong, impactful and most influential instrument to guide our youth in the history of humanity and the world, notwithstanding our family upbringing and schools. Sports and sports figures can have an impact on every aspect of a kid’s cognitive thought and physical being, whether it be learning respect for the game and in life or physical conditioning that can be of benefit on or off the field. There is nothing more satisfying and fulfilling than seeing a kids face and level of excitement when getting an autograph or meeting their sports hero.
These athletes became immediate role models and now than ever we need positive role models in sports as opposed to political agendas or negative values, which are running rampant in every sport. Watching and following those greats over the decades from Bobby Jones to Babe Ruth and Jack Nicklaus to Joe Montana , our kids have been able develop a means to become a better human being, whether it be learning resilience or the drive to be the best one can be.
Our definition of “The Essence of Sports” is very simple: The ultimate role model with the potential to transfer their love of the game and basically good values to at least one child. The mental ability and strength absorbed by a human, especially our youth, from witnessing the honor, character and exceptional play from an athlete in any sport and their genuine commitment during that journey. In regards to our youth, the motivation, drive and ability to apply these principles to their entire life as a whole to succeed in every aspect of life.
