I created this site and these blogs to help my readers improve their games and hopefully spread the word about GOLFSTR+. I have grown my reader base to about 500 and sold over 6,000 GOLFSTR+ Training Aids so I must have been doing something right. Unfortunately I suffered a mini stroke on May 33 and lost my focus to continue my weekly blogs. [I have been writing these blogs every week since 2012, that’s over 624 blogs.] It is a great disappointment to end this site and these blogs.
I have recovered significantly from my stroke but it has taken me over an hour to figure out how to log into this site. I could not believe that I had forgotten my site access and password but it all finally came back. I just felt it was time to explain my absence. I now realize that I am not the same person that I was before my stroke. My tennis game has gone downhill as I can’t see he ball clearly and coordinate my impact point. My golf scores have gone up as my approach shots and putting are rusty from a significant reduction in play. BTW my drivers license is still suspended so I have to depend on driving to any course with friends.
Long story, short: the stroke was just the start of my wakeup. On the day of my stroke, I played a tennis match against a doctor who tried to do a quick diagnosis of my problems over the tennis net. He recommended that I go directly to the hospital but I finished playing our match (and lost 6-2, 6-2). That doctor was in much better shape and 10 years younger than me. He died from a massive heart attack while biking about 2 months later. That was an other wakeup call for me. I’m glad that I dodged my bullet.
I have shut down my GOLFSTR+ Training Aid company: Innovation Unlimited Inc.; ended my club memberships; sold all of our physical assets and I’m moving with my wife to Cape Town, South Africa to live with our son’s family (including 2 grand kids). Yes, this is a shocking change for us and all of our friends.
I hate to end these blogs but will have more time to write a book using all of the wonderful ideas covered in my past 624 blogs. Don’t worry I will only include the best ideas because they were paying off for many of our readers and I want to share them with you in a unique golf guide which will be customized for YOU. How will I do this? Stay tuned. You will be on the launch list when I get it published.
Thank you for your continued support. Wishing you all the best and happy golfing!
