670: Michael Young, M.D. is just as addicted to golf as the rest of us. Unfortunately he’s seen the darker side of what can happen to golfers that lose their temper or are in the wrong spot at the right time. To start our 14th year of Golf Smarter we’re joined by Dr. Young for a brief visit to share a couple of stories that are fun to repeat…unless it happened to you! One of these stories comes from his new book “The Illness of Medicine: Experiences of Clinical Practice”
