I used to write a blog for Golf Monthly titled “More than a Game.” It was back in the olden days when blogs were a “new-fangled” thing and nobody had even thought about vlogs and podcasts and other such, more easily spoon-feedable forms of media. Anyway, digression, I’m guilty for that. You can get away with digression in a podcast but not when using the written word. Digression again. Bad Fergus.
My blog covered my life in golf. Not just playing the game, not just the equipment, not just the courses and clubs. My weekly musings dealt with how golf impacted on every element of my life, from my daily timings to how the game affected my relationships within and outside the game, how consumed I was with thoughts of golf and how I found myself relating almost everything to the sport. “Ooh, that wee valley would make for a terrific par-5…” That sort of thing.
