The Story
Thank you for spending the next few moments with me. I’m going to share a story about a day when an older gentleman inspired me as I watched him walk up the 18th fairway at historic Pebble Beach.
He had just hit a drive that fit the beauty of the hole and was less than 90 yards from the hole.
Enjoying the crisp fresh air and striking scenery I continued to watch in quiet solitude as this man of small stature hit another shot just as elegant. Next a soft putt rolled the ball into the hole. I was soon to find out that I had just witnessed a par from a man 89 years of age on a golf vacation from China.
I was invited to meet this man of experience. Here, Dr. Yaow spoke fondly of his love of golf through a translator.
At some point he realized that my admiration for his life experience and love of the game that I couldn’t quite master led him to explain how at 89 years old he was still able to enjoy, play and par a few holes.
It was then that he shared with me an ancient Chinese secret; a Royal secret.
This secret, based on an ancient formulation that dates back thousands of years, was used by guards who were protecting the Chinese Emperor.
They then passed the precise steps and formulation from generation to generation, where thousands of years later they were taught to Dr. Yaow, who would soon become my teacher and mentor. |
