If It Weren’t For the Kids, I Wouldn’t Do It! | Paul Brown

We learned a lot about the importance of effort and simply doing your personal best when speaking with Paul Brown. There will be times when we put in all our effort and it will result in an ideal outcome, and there will be times it will result in a not-so-ideal one. However, it’s always better to try and give it your all. As junior golfers, we sometimes lose focus while practicing, but Brown helped us realize the importance of focusing if we want to play our personal best and improve our craft. 

Another thing we learned is the difference between being a golf professional and a professional golfer—and the numerous opportunities and accolades that come with them. Brown chose the golf professional side and is a director and coach today, which fills him with joy. It’s nice to know there are different ways to get immersed in the golf world. 

About the Guest:

Born in Tucson, Arizona, Paul Brown is a director for U.S. Kids in Las Vegas and a certified member of the Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA). He directed in the U.S. Kids for 20 years and was a member at the PGA for 25 years. Brown was the formal golf coach at Faith Lutheran Academy in Las Vegas, as well.
