My cousin Gavin started playing and wanted someone to play with.

What’s some advice that you’d give someone who wanted to get into golfing?
More practice equals less suck.
If you could improve how you play in any way, what would you choose and why?

What’s the hardest course you’ve ever played on?
Trump International Golf Links Doonbeg.
What are your favorite songs to get you ready for golf?
