Summary

It's been about 25 years since my lifelong friend Steve Specht came up with the idea of me doing a weekly golf show on radio from his driving range and family fun center in Overland Park. We've each had pretty good runs since then as Steve is now the General Manager of Canyon Farms, the jewel of the www.greatlifekc.com clubs and courses around the midwest. Steve's a busy guy this time of year getting everything ramped up for golf season, the pool and even an upscale public restaurant named Silo Modern Farmhouse. It's quite an operation in Lenexa, KS. But my buddy always has time to shoot the you know what with me and we even talk Tiger Woods and Masters favorites. Enjoy.
