We compared MGA members who think of themselves as " golfers " to
members who play golf but don't necessarily identify with golf. We asked
both groups how frequently they perform a variety of golf-related activities
and found key behaviors that separate " golfers " from " people who play golf. "
As one might expect, the " golfers " played more than the others and had a
somewhat lower handicap.
Golfers are more likely to:
* Place golf-related decorations in their workspace.
* When they see an undeveloped fi eld or property, imagine how
it might look and play if it were developed into a golf course.
* Have a golf collection (balls, programs, tickets, etc.).
* Watch a rerun of a golf tournament that they have seen before.
* Wear clothing with a golf-related logo on it when not playing golf.
* Get a golf-related personalized license plate.
* Use golf analogies and examples even when talking to non-golfers.
* Have a golf-related nickname.
* Give their pets a golf-related nickname.

Elite golfers have a high tolerance
for time spent perfecting their craft
(tour pros spend eight or more hours
every day). Studies show it takes
about 10,000 hours, or fi ve years, to
become an expert.
