I was about 13 or 14 when I could match my dad.

It’s more about the time spent with your son vs your score.

Spoiler, you ain’t making the Tour.

Now that my dad has passed, I look back fondly at all that time spent with him on the golf course as I was the only sibling that played.

He was very Zen like in both life and golf which he passed down to me. No throwing clubs, etc.

If I shot an 83, great! 93? No big deal, enjoyed it, try to do better next time.

Grab a cigar and have fun with your son. He’ll remember it. Trust me.

And if he’s bragging next time he beats you, remind him he can’t drive home and it could be a long walk with his bag. I heard that one before.
