Thanks for being a regular guy and a role model for the ages
I was fortunate enough to have been invited to come down to Bay Hill for a corporate outing. Simply being at the tournament was a great pleasure as outside the ropes is as close as I will ever get to that elevel of play. Although I am a 8 handicap, I still live, breathe and sleep golf. My best friend who lives 1500 miles away spends several hours per week with me on the phone talking about our latest golf adventures, misfortunes, and future golf getaways.
I was attending a dinner for my corporate group one night during the Bay Hill last week and Mr. Palmer was our guest speaker. I work in the medical equipment industry designing wheelchair solutions for the disabled and he gave a wonderful talk on the impact our products have on people in need.
The highlight of my evening was shaking Arnie's hand and getting my photo taken with him. Although the photo was out of focus and a bit blurry it has become my prized possesion. Thanks for being a regular guy and a role model for the ages. Best of luck to you Mr. Palmer in all you you do.
