Golf v Video Gaming
So many kids today prefer to sit indoors playing video games rather than getting outside, playing sports or playing with friends. In a 2015 survey conducted by the Youth Sports Trust, 23% of young people surveyed viewed playing video games as a form of exercise. Now there is some benefits to playing video games and I am partial to a game of Call of Duty myself, but sports in the great outdoors beats video games hands down every time. It's my job as a PGA Professional to try a
