His enthusiasm is infectious
Perhaps the work that gives Mark most pleasure though is his work with ex forces personel in the ‘Battle Back’ program
Helping ex military men and women get back on track with their lives through the medium of golf.
This is genuine contribution to the game and really makes you think about the sheer privilege we have just to be able to go out and play golf in a beautiful environment
We discuss the importance of creating SHOTS and the sheer joy which can be gained in turning an image in your head to the reality of a beautifully struck shot
