Mold character?
Create a place to spend time with your family/kids, if you have them and show them something you enjoy?

Mike,

Great question. For me, the answer is "no".

Ballybunion, for example, isn't just a "great golf course". It is about friendship....so much so that I can over over for a long weekend and not play and yet still feel privileged to be there....even lucky just to be alive.
