Personal Reflection about Grayson Murray + how the viral video "Golf Boys" originated! - BEN CRANE on Life off the Links
I share some thoughts on Grayson Murray's tragic death and how we can all #TeeUpAConversation with each other.
Ben Crane shares about his Life off the Links in this week's episode. Hear about how his Grandfather played a huge role in his learning the game of golf. Also, hear about how his faith has shaped who he is and why he thinks it even plays an advantage in professional golf. In addition to all of that, hear the HILARIOUS story of how "Golf Boys" originated and who the golfer was that was supposed to be in the video but dropped out last minute.
This week's conversation has it all; laughter, family, faith, great advice to golfers looking to improve their game.
