Dennis Walters - Part 3 (Out of Despair Springs Hope)

FORE the Good of the Game

In this third part of our six-part series with Dennis Walters, he takes us back to his college days playing golf for North Texas State University as their team captain. With some collegiate and amateur success in the game, Dennis graduated and became a golf professional. After failing his first try at PGA TOUR Q-School, he took his game to the South African Tour and other mini-tour events. It was in 1974 at Roxiticus GC that Dennis' world changed forever. His 3-wheeled golf cart rolled over unexpectedly, doing severe damage to his spine and resulting in him becoming a T-13 parplegic. Listen in as Dennis recounts his 4 months in hospital and 5 months in rehab. His tale of hope and hopelessness is moving and powerful. He relates the day hope returned when, with the ingenious help of his father, he began hitting golf balls again. Dennis Walters continues his incredible life story, "FORE the Good of the Game."
