I was forced to play golf while in a multiple decade slump on a dark day of an Irish Racing trip. When I was looking to go straight to the 19th hole, I asked my caddie for some encouragement. To quote Nigel, " I encourage you to give up the game" I haven't played since and thank him every time the chance to lose balls and get sore hands for 4 hours comes up. A new meet soon starts Friday, you being a NYRA guy, trust your gut and go in with both hands. Gotta be better than golf no matter what.
