Dear Wayne,
I have been a traveling fool since I got to enjoy the Florida weather with you and Will. Please accept my apology for not reaching out to you earlier, but the way I was feeling about my experience with you kept changing everyday and I did not want to leave anything short in my appreciation. It is amazing how one round of golf can change you so much…
I had always been the guy they gave the ball to at the end of the game, always the fastest, always the hardest shot, always that guy that was not afraid to win a game as much as I was not afraid to lose one.
Golf was one of those things that I thought I was not built for: too bulky, too physical and too stiff. It added up to an unwanted submissive position when that club was in my hand and a really bad golf game. I must say I feel so different about the game. I’m so optimistic and so excited to play for the first time in my life, thanks to you!
Wayne, you are just a super guy that wears amazing values of life on your sleeve. Your instruction was so passionate and inspiring and I want to thank you again for that one day I know will change my life.
Sincerely,
Jake
Hi Wayne,
I wanted to thank you again for your tremendous hospitality. My dad and I had such a fantastic time. If you hadn't met him I'd be afraid to tell you (as you might think he's a stalker) that he has a small room in his house that is essentially a "Gary Player Shrine". The Masters collage with memorabilia and masters passes will proudly displayed on the feature wall.
More importantly I wanted to thank you for providing an opportunity for me to spend some quality time with my dad. In the end that's what its all about. First time in my life I saw my dads eyes tear up as he was shaking your fathers hand...memories that will never be forgotten
I look forward to staying in touch and working with you to create more memorable experiences with friends, family and colleagues.
You are a wonderful host and I'm sure your dad is proud of the experiences you are able to create for your clients
All the Best,

Hi Wayne,
Thank you for sending the shoes sorry to inconvenience you but once again proof you're a class act. I can see we have very similar taste in life enjoy the finer things and aren't afraid to work hard to attain them. You are very good at the hospitality business and especially good with people you're father and mother must be an amazing people, its obvious your father has been an incredible sportsman but you are a testament to who he is as a person, please tell him for me that he did a great job rearing you and he should be proud of that accomplishment more than any other. I too was blessed with a father who had amazing people skills and work ethic that has impacted my life in a significant way allowing me to have success I never imagined growing up. Wayne life is grand there are no coincidences, like attracts like and us meeting was supposed to happen, I am sure we will do the South Africa trip soon and create another fabulous memory. By the way on the back you really hit it great buddy I can clearly see how good a player you were and can be again if you ever had the opportunity to really play.
You're a Very Special Person your friend,
Hector
