To [my father], golf was not just playing eighteen holes; it was the whole experience: the preparation, the wager, the good holes and the bad, the occasional par, the traditional cold potato soup and beer afterward, the discussion of world events, the hot shower and clean clothes.
All were integral parts of a golf day, with each segment to be enjoyed to its fullest.
The score was important, but only briefly and a small part of the picture.
