Teaching Golf With Seniors in Mind

How two-time LPGA Tour winner Penny Pulz is reinvigorating golf for retirees

What other innovations have you brought to your academy?
The other thing is I am bringing juniors in here as well. And why am I doing that in a senior world? [What] I see in my vision at the end of the day is juniors play with the seniors to make the seniors laugh, and the seniors are teaching the juniors respect and discipline. The other thing is those grandkids come to visit Grandma and Grandpa. Well, we have something for those kids. I'm just trying to turn everything upside down. And it's working.

How are things going for you so far?
It is working, and it is only going to get better. It's new. The bottom line is, let's have more fun. But also, let's maintain a solid, constructive quality of life, using our brains, [and] let's stay inquisitive about our bodies even though they aren't the same as they were at 25.
