One of the greatest "people people" that I've ever met John.

BKH

it's my throw eric


i still maintain a fishing license, used to much more of it before skiing took over.

Wow I would have figured that Hollywood with his Bass Nautique would have been a big time fisherman

Huge baseball fan (Red Sox), mountain biking, and PC gaming.
I have an 8-year old son and 5-year old daughter so most of my free time is spent going to soccer and baseball games. I love that my son is now of the age where we can play catch. Also I sometimes need to find time for my wife :)
For PC games, I play usually shooters (Call of Duty etc). My wife watches her "reality" shows and I play games. My best friend since 6th grade lives in Chicago and plays regularly so it is cool that we get to "hang out" a few nights a week.
I also manage an energy efficiency company and should be working right now... !

Like all sports, master of none. I spend most of my time tinkering with things and my other main hobby is music, specifically guitar.

Outside of the boat this takes up most of my money and as the bible says, "where you treasure is there will your heart be also" and since most of my treasure is in guitars and boat, I guess thats where my heart is.

hobby turned into a job, makes you kinda numb

for me its working on things. I have a 03 road king, 37 ford coupe ,69 camaro rs/ss just finishing an 84 k5 blazer from tx, hunting fishing reading cooking more hunting

Many hobbies here...surprised to hear the golfing one. I used to play a lot of golf. I have two uncles that are club pros here in the midwest. But...I soon realized that if it's nice enough to enjoy golfing...it's nice enough to be on the river. IMO

I do a lot of fishing in the spring, snowmobile, snowboard/snowski, Duck hunting, turkey hunting, goose hunting, ice fishing...I shared a pic of this boat a couple weeks ago. We spend most of our time in this in sept/oct/nov and early dec. Breaking ice with it is fun!

John,

There is alot of great courses here in TX. I been blessed at how many I have played. I spent most of career in the golf industry but got out of it because the industry does not pay well. Work 90hrs a wk for 2,000.00. But I tried to turn pro but became way to expensive to play to get my card and sponsor ships where hard to get even if you where a ringer. Anyways, here are some of my favorites.
Stonebriar-Frisco tx
Hackberry CC- Los Colinas
Denton CC- Denton TX
Tension Park East Dallas Tx
The Cliffs- Possum Kingdom Lake Great Beauty Gods Country
Blackhorse Ranch Cypress Tx
Iron Horse Irving Tx
Hyatt Bear Creek DFW Airport
Dallas Atheltic Club -Dallas Tx built around old big homes that where built in the 60's. Two great courses
Tour 18 Flower Mound Tx
Chase Oaks Plano Tx

Some of these courses are on the high end, and prestigous courses. I was very blessed to be able to play them when I was a golf pro, FREE is best... There are some great municpal courses here in houston that I enjoy but they are runned very poorly.
I worked with Chad Williams and he really took my game after highschool to that level I never thought I could play. Mentally and physically. It was alot of fun.

I am sorry to hear about your injury? I hope you get better and are able to play again sometime. It is a great game and lots of fun to play. Big Bend?? Wow!! I bet that was a hard course. And the scenry was to die for.
