The history of golf and it's beginning.
How did Golf begin? Every golfer asks. PGA Pro Bill Greenleaf and Dr. Jason E. Holmes reconnected at a reunion. They dove into a coaching theory discussion. Bill shared an imaginary bedtime story outlining how a young shepherd invented golf. Many historians researched and recorded golf artifacts. However, 1457, fifty years before Scotland's first printing press, marks history's earliest golf mention. Twelve friends agree there is a need. They commit to create a fair, challenging, sociable, honest and fun athletic event. At the intersection of imagination and unfair competition, young minds collaborate to design and create games. Two history professors first authenticate, then translate a long lost manuscript.
And Then There Was Golf: The Lost Legend, details the story of young friends who cooperate, collaborate and problem solve to produce the game played around the world by more than 70 million golfers.
