Wow. What a day with these amazing people. I’m very inspired by @BlackGirlsGolf founder, Tiffany Fitzgerald. She is doing some heavy lifting in golf. Proud to be her friend. Golf is a vehicle to laughter, friendship and business.

@AdamSchupak One of my favorite all-time reads. A master class in business, and simply a great story.

It was a great honor to be invited to the unveiling of the Deane Beman Den at PGA Tour HQ. Please don’t anyone go running off with the copy of my book on The Commish that is on display there.

The USGA recommends playing courses based on your driver distance. The average male golfer hits their driver about 225 yards and should play courses between 5,800-6,000 yards. Do you play courses longer or shorter than what is recommended for your driving distance?

@ShaneRyanHere I only got over the hump by taking the PGA of America’s Playing Ability Test. I prepped hard for three months and saw significant improvement.

I've come to a kind of crossroads in my golf game, where I've maxed out how good I can be with a casual approach, but I don't want to work harder, but I don't want to quit, but being mediocre is annoying. Wrote about the 'what to do next' conundrum here: golfdigest.com/story/i-ve-arr…

@AndyTFE @USGA For recreation golf, courses are not getting bigger or feeling pressure to lengthen. Longer courses may be desirable for the elite men’s game, but for 99.9% of courses and play, we are not having an issue with the current ball flight.

Powerful message about the golf ball rollback from @USGA President Fred Perpall today. The further the ball goes, the more time it takes and the more it costs to build and maintain golf courses.

Someone convince me that playing golf shots off tight bent grass fairways makes the game more fun than playing off fescue/clover/moss/chickweed.

Bryson's bunker shot on 18 was from 55 yards. He hit it to three feet eleven inches. Chances of hitting it inside 4 feet was ~1.7% One of the greatest clutch shots of all time.

@MyGolfSpy This is a market at play. The average daily green fee at a public golf course in America was basically stagnant for nearly 15 years. Try running a business when you cannot raise your prices for that long. There are many ways to play the game affordably.

I’m out on men’s professional golf. Down on the governing bodies. LPGA is cool. So is college golf. And I’ll watch the majors/Ryder Cup. All in on what really matters: Golf with my kids. Goat Hill Park. Getting better. Friday skins. Uncle Tony Invitational. Father/Son & Father/Daughter. Monthly medals. Wishbone Brawl. The places the game takes me. And the people I meet along the way. You?

I enter the dentist waiting room. It's busy. They say they're 20 minutes behind. The worst... Then an older man walks in. Booming voice... Announces tomorrow's his 90th birthday to the staff. Sits next to me and says, "You know what it feels like to be 90?" "I don't," I say... "Me neither!" he smiles. "I don't turn 90 'til tomorrow! And tomorrow ain't here yet. All we got is today." He smiled at me and I smiled back. The guy could easily have been in his late 70s. He looked great. Big energy. "You know what I think about?" he asks. "What's that?" I say. "Flying," he says. "Woke up thinking about flying. Thought about it driving over here. I took flying lessons for a decade. On and off. Loved being up there. I can't fly anymore... But whatever you love to do, do more of it. Because one day you won't be able to. You'll be 89 turning 90 thinking about the flying lessons you took in your 50s." Then they called him in. Moved him ahead of the line as a "birthday present" they said. He winked and left. And I've been thinking about what he said ever since. Hit me hard and wanted to share: 1) All we have is today. 2) Whatever you love to do, do more of it because one day you won't be able to. Damn. You never know when wisdom about life will smack you upside the head. Even in the dentist's office. If this message hit you right, share it and follow me @Jon_Finkel for more columns like it.

The USGA says if you avg 275 with driver, you should play from 6700 yds or longer. Nearly half of regulation courses are 6700+. Less than 1% of golfers avg 275+. Almost half the courses in USA are long enough for the longest 1%, yet we need more long courses? Why?
