I've taken up golf in the past five or six years, and most of the time there aren't too many people out there that can drive a ball further than I can.
Bo Jackson
My confidence and drive to go play came when I realized how gifted I was at such a young age and how much bigger my build was than the kids my age.
Bo Jackson
I've always played with kids that were five, six, seven years older than me.
Bo Jackson
