Don has been wielding golf clubs since the ripe young age of ten when his mother gave him a mish-mash set of clubs of different brands and shafts. After High School, his first job was with the maintenance crew of a new community golf course where they planted 700 trees in clay soil - which just about broke his back. since then, Don has been involved with other aspects of the game, from junior golf training programs to working behind the counter of the pro shop. A former president of his local men's league, Don has experienced the ups and downs of golf in numerous ways - but they haven't dimmed his love for the game. Don always thought his professional careers as contractor, stock broker and business owner were only a means to an end - in paying for his golfing mania.
