About this Quote

This quote by Amy Alcott speaks to the mental and spiritual aspects of the video game of golf. It suggests that golf is more than just a physical video game, however rather a game of the mind. It is a video game of focus and concentration, where the gamer must have the ability to clear their mind and let their instincts take over. It is a video game of perseverance and discipline, where the player must be able to remain in the moment and trust their inner voice. It is a video game of mindfulness, where the gamer should have the ability to stay in today and know their surroundings. In essence, golf is a video game of Zen, where the player must be able to discover inner peace and harmony in order to succeed.
