About the Author - Nick Herbert started his golf career in Johannesburg, at around ten years of age, hitting balls in a park with his mom and dad. He hit his Mom on the nose with his third back swing, #SorryMom, but was hooked on golf instantly.
Accolades in his golf career include:
o Best handicap of scratch in 2005 o Best gross score of 68
o Two holes in one
o Played 84 local courses and 15 international courses
Nick's golf bucket list is still very long but his top three are to get an Albatross, play Pebble Beach and go to the US Masters.
Nick's love affair with the game of golf has led him to develop a golf putting mat called 1PuttZone and he is busy developing a mobile application to help golfers track and improve their putting performance.
