109: Jerome Rufin: Moving Across the Country to Become a Scratch Golfer

Imagine moving across the country with one goal - to become a scratch golfer! Would you do it?

Today I got a chance to interview Jerome Rufin who is just starting the game and did just that. He's so obsessed that he left his life in NYC and moved to San Diego with one goal - become a scratch golfer.

But here's the kicker... he's only played golf for about a month. However, he's not trying to learn it all on his own and has recruited some of the top instructors and specialists to achieve his goals faster than ever. 

He now has a swing coach, putting coach (the same guy who coaches Xander Schauffele), a trainer, and a sports psychologist who's trained Olympic athletes. Not to mention a few friends who help him create some of the best golf content out there.

Needless to say, he has quite a support system and is wildly motivated to make it happen. This is the video that I first saw of Jerome's that prompted me to reach out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DywQ5YvdrVA

Make sure to subscribe to his content, YouTube especially so you can follow along his journey. I have no doubt he'll hit his goal and become a wicked smart scratch golfer.
