"God created golf holes;
its the duty of the architect
to discover them"


Donald Ross

18th Hole Pebble Beach

My trials and tribulations with the game of golf has lasted for over 30 years. What is it that invigorates us to play this game? It's the challenge of playing courses that appear to be almost impossible to beat, yet are serene in natural beauty. It's the friendship and camaraderie on one hand and fierce competition on the other.


The picture to the right is the 18th hole at Pebble Beach Golf Club. I visited the course during the 2010 U.S Open.

Winn Grips

An aerospace engineer by training, Dr. Huang had, in the 1960s, worked under Dr. Wernher Von Braun to develop the Saturn V rocket which eventually took Armstrong to the moon. It took a frustrating week at golf camp to inspire Dr. Huang's shift from tennis accessory development to golf grip innovation. At the Golf Digest Academy in Silverado, California, professionals Jim Flick and Paul Ryan put Dr. Huang's golf game through the wringer. Throughout the rigorous training, Dr. Huang found himself struggling with his grip. "My rubber grips were so slippery and uncomfortable," he remembers, "that I had to overcompensate by squeezing my grips so hard that I was practically strangling them. Of course, the tension in my hands and arms made it impossible for me to make a smooth swing. I knew I could design a better grip-not just for me, but for all golfers."

The Golfing Union of Ireland

Found in 1891, the Golfing Union of Ireland is the oldest golfing union in the world. The nine original clubs, which formed the Union, were located in Ulster, but golf in Ireland at the time of the establishment of the Union was not confined to that province. In all, 28 greens', as golf courses were then designated, had been opened for play by the time the Union was founded on 12th October 1891. The Ladies Golf Union was founded in 1893, as was also the Irish Ladies Golf Union. The United States Golf Association followed in 1894; the Welsh Golf Union came next in 1895, and not until after the First World War did the Scottish Golf Union in 1920 and the English Golf Union in 1924 join the circle. Golf in those early years was enjoyed by comparatively small groups, and while the number of clubs gradually grew, the staging of the Canada Cup, now known at the World Cup in Ireland at Portmarnock Golf Club in 1960, really set the scene alight in Ireland.

National Amputee Golf Association

Dale Bourisseau, a veteran of World War II in which he received his below knee amputation, looked up comrades with similar injuries and encouraged them to try golf as a means of recreation and to re-enforce pride. Dale teamed up with Possibilities Unlimited, a group of people with disabilities formed in Cleveland, Ohio. In addition to gathering players by word of mouth, Dale also traveled with golf clubs as part of his sales position. Eventually, the band of amputee golfers became regional, with friendly games developing into tournament play in various cities.
