G. Mark’s Pro Tip:

“Work on three things: Know what you’re doing, your craft. Know the game your covering, what the game is all about. And most importantly for hand held work, know where to be, and where not to be. In golf, you can’t be in a guy’s putting line and move, especially if he doesn’t know you. With me it’s different, after 30 years they trust me because I’ve earned it.”
