Random Pairing Tales: Paired Up for a Final Round at Royal Dornoch (video)
My guest this week on the Paired Up Story Hour is Jim Hartsell! I met Jim last year at Sweetens Cove Golf Club, where he is a longtime member, and he has become a great golf confidant of mine ever since. Whenever I have a hankering for a trip to Sweetens I always shoot Jim a text to see if he'll be around. "That 'hankering' seems to happen every weekend," says those who follow me on social media. You're not wrong!
In this week's video, Jim tells a touching story about a random pairing at Royal Dornoch in Scotland back in 1997. After 18 holes, Jim's group decided to stay inside due to horrific weather during their morning round, but Jim decided to head back out to the golf course. In doing so, he met Alan, the only other golfer on the property. When you listen to Jim talk about Alan, you'll see why this day has stuck with him for over 30 years.
Enjoy!
