[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work for a tech company, think of Cisco Systems, Palo Alto network, Oracle, etc..., and we invite our clients to play golf every month at expensive places.  A lot of our clients are government folks and senior leadership in the financial industry.  Why do you think my company is doing this?  Is that "gross" to you?[/quote]

[b]A lot of these people are over 40 and not in great shape[/b].  [u][b]Anyone can learn the game it’s doesn’t take skill to play[/b][/u].  It takes skill to excel but you’re not at a tournament.   It’s also good to be able to have conversations between holes.   That’s why businesses use golf.  Although some people want to scream with boredom halfway through so hopefully they know their clients well.  [/quote]

I would rather be hanging out with a decision maker who is out of shape than an athletic person who is a minion in the company.

Anyone with $$$ can learn the game and it does take skills to play the game, unless you consistently hit the ball 50 yards and into the woods.  It takes a lot of skills to excel but you wouldn't know that.  Last I check, it takes around 200K to join the Congressional Country Club and there is a waiting list.[/quote]

Anyone can learn but not too many will be Tiger Woods. There are public courses to practice if you have to play for business.  I’ve played foursomes with my husband but he is way too serious.  People play at charity tournaments who don’t otherwise play.  Just practice at public course, putting and driving ranges.  [/quote]
