How many of you work in the field of golf

[Andy Silis]

Started watching the CBC Golf Classic from Firestone C.C. when I was 14 years old and have been hooked on golf ever since. Really became passionate about courses and golf course architecture in my mid 20's. Have been in the golf business now for over 25 years. Every morning I wake up and consider myself blessed for having a career in golf where I make a great living and am absolutely passionate about what I do!!! I am the National Sales Manager for Tour Edge/Exotics Golf ( www.touredge.com ) and have had the privelege and honor of having played and experienced some of the worlds greatest golf courses during my career in the golf business! Many thanks to Ran and all of you here on Golf Club Atlas for  providing a forum that promotes frank and open discussion on a subject I am passionate about!

I too, work in golf. Actually, I assist others who work in golf.  For the past twelve years I've served as the communications consultant for the Northern California PGA with a similar assignment (now approaching 5 years) with the Golf Course Superintendents Association of Northern California. I enjoy working for superintendents, pros and affiliate members who are committed to improving golf experiences for others.

Three years ago, I joined hands with many others in our industry as a proponent for Play Golf America, an initiative that focuses on bringing new players to the game and former players back to the sport. In another effort to give back to a game I love, I also volunteer part-time with the California Alliance for Golf.
 
Besides working with allied associations, I assist a handful of clients in messaging efforts for golf products, books and/or services. Sometimes I assist in a career coach capacity.

Do I like what I do? No, I love what I do. Hopefully your life passion (in some way or other) is related to your profession.
