Thanks for posting David.
Lots of wise words and thoughts detailed by Mike in the link you have shared.
Mike also wrote a excellent article about golf and trees recently entitled “Tree Trouble” which I now can’t find a link to, it may be findable on his Twitter or Facebook accounts. If you do find it, it’s well worth reading.

Love the part about playing the first six holes at RM for the rest of his life and being perfectly happy about it.

Here's the 'Tree Trouble' article. Hard to argue against anything he writes!

It's only half the article. The other page is in the print edition of McKellar, which ships to readers in approximately three weeks.
