Citizen of HeavenGIFTS, part 3: with BJ Sipe and Terry Francis.Register your feedback here.

Always good to hear from you!We’re back with the rest of my conversation with Kris Emerson and Terry Francis; if you missed the first part, do yourself a favor and check it out. In this section I bring up the idea of the “authentic swing” from “The Legend of Bagger Vance” (which I consider to be bogus — both the concept and the book), and then ask how true to our individual nature we should try to be.
