The Follow Through

The Follow Through Episode 3 (AUDIO) - Bugsy


Listen Later

In episode 3 Kevin Fuhrmann joins the pod to talk about his love/hate relationship with the game. A natural athlete who played high levels of hockey and baseball, Kevin eventually turned to competitive bodybuilding. While he underplays his accomplishments there, he quite obviously and visibly puts the rest of us to shame.

Kevin uses golf to feed his competitive drive, which as you will hear, is a bit of a double edge sword for him. His desire to be better balanced against a fear of never getting there has him doing some deep reflection.
In the end, this really is a podcast for everyone. While you will hear the same great stories the show is known for sharing, you will also get to explore that vulnerable side of the game. The one where a gallery has gathered around you on the first tee or the last green. And the pressure, real or perceived, is there and you want to perform. Join us to hear how Kevin feels he is doing!
