In Hawaii we have a very good Junior Golf Program. Hawaii has produced such Golfers as. Michelle Wie, Dean Wilson, Kim, Kim, and other now either on the PGA Tour, or LPGA Tour, or have turned Pro and are to young for the Tour Membership. Many Hawaii Produced Golfers are attending Colleges on the Mainland on Golf Scholarships.

Golf is a very expensive sport. Clubs, Equipment, Travel Expenses, Lessons, Sports Psyches, Strength Coaches, Parent Travel Expenses etc.

On young man had to Turn Pro, purely because he could Not Afford Not To. This Punahou Grad may skip College Altogether. Punahou Grads Go To College. One Example being the President. Another being Wie.

These people are mostly intelligent, bright perky people that people want to look at and see play and care if they do well.

The pressure to succeed can be tremendous as it was on Wie, both before and after the Nike and Sony Contract.

If you should come out of the Box and do things a little different, and stumble the crtic hound you.

Its hard to tell a kid with Talent to be a kid, but let her be a kid.

I grew up in Glenmoor (since I was 4 in 1980) not far from the green! Nice to see a star rise from somewhere I'm from!

Anyone familiar with Dick Harmon knows his penchant for trying new adjectives and metaphors. C'mon, you know what a Rubik's Cube is -- so now think of that same puzzling feeling and apply it to imagining what it would have been like to see this 14-year-old on the links at the state high school golf tournament. That wasn't so hard now, was it?
