If you are a busy professional man that has any opportunity at all to be a part of a golf club, then I’d suggest you join it at all costs. I never was an advocate of golf clubs until I got married and realized just how high a level of stress my poor husband dealt with every day at work. Quite frankly, I never knew why men were always talking about their love for golfing and their need to get out and hit a bucket of balls before this.
It took me a few months to realize how serious my husband was about joining a golf club. We both knew that we didn’t have the finances to make it happen, but it only took me a little while of seeing how stressed and unhappy my husband was after work before I started making sacrifices in other areas so that he could join a golf club.
Oh my goodness, what a difference being a part of a golf club has made for my husband and hence to our entire family. He looks forward to his Wednesday night golf matches more than anything. His golf club membership has given him an excuse and an obligation to do things for himself simply because he enjoys them. I encourage all of my friends to let their husbands get memberships at golf clubs....
