I
love New Orleans.
I was born there, and I have lived most of my life there.
But, the golf business there WAS a total joke, a real MAFIA-style deal run by one local pro.
He wanted 'blind' soilders for his 'one-eyed kingdom, I wanted to save golf from hacking & wanted world-wide fame.
We could not co-exist. (Sadly he died on 9-11 in New Olreans)
I moved to Louisville in 1993 and was a BIG, BIG hit. But the range I taught at was closed due to the land being developed for a long delayed Mall expansion.
I went back to New Olreans in 1994 and eventually back to Louisville in 1997. This time I found even more success and a much better facility. I am pretty close to as big as you can be in a 3rd-tier market.
But, as you know, I want to basically "take over" golf instruction on a world-wide basis. Of course, that will probably never happen—BUT!—there is NO reason I can't be #1.
To do this, this little website has to be upgraded—we are in process right now. The other thing is my videos are going to finally get completed this winter.
Next year, the books will be the projects of note and my schools will increase.
Louisville will ALWAYS be a part of my business, but it will be a smaller and smaller part.
The
New New Olreans MAY be the place where I can 'set up shop,' it might not. Either way New Orleans will be home and I will be continue on my quest to help as many golfers as I can and get to the top of my profession.
