What the Routeburn Track taught me

Walking the Routeburn Track was more than just a journey through breathtaking landscapes—it was a powerful reminder of the lessons that apply to both golf and life. The ever-changing conditions mirrored the challenges we face on the course and in life, teaching me the importance of resilience and adaptability. Just like in golf, preparation is key, and adversity is inevitable - but it’s how you respond to it that shapes your path forward. The track also reinforced the need to stay present, find joy in the process, and trust that each step—no matter how small—brings you closer to your goals. Whether you’re navigating a winding trail or a tricky fairway, the journey itself is where the real growth happens.
