TaylorMade's Duane Anderson - Golf, Fatherhood, and Values

The Quarterback DadCast

When you tee up a conversation with Duane Anderson, TaylorMade's seasoned club fitter, and father, you know we are in for a great conversation! Thankfully, Greg Manley was kind enough to introduce Duane and me a few years ago, and our friendship continues to grow!
This episode intertwines the lush world of golf with the journey of fatherhood, as Duane and I reflect on the values that not only define our paths as dads but also shape the lives of our children. From his time at USC triumphs to how he got into golf, Duane brings to the table a rich perspective on parenting that is as varied and vibrant as the golf clubs he knows so well.
We share candid stories where our kids taught us a thing or two about honesty, and we ponder over the shared moments that fortify the bond between father and child. As we shift the focus to our careers, Duane and I recount the serendipitous swings that led us to where we are today, and how fostering curiosity and embracing change have been our caddies in this unpredictable game of life.
Closing out this round, we address the transformative nature of fatherhood as our kids venture into adulthood. With tales that evoke empathy and chuckles alike, we touch upon the importance of remaining an ever-present figure in their lives, armed with patience and humor. This episode isn't just for the golf aficionados or the parenting vets; it's for anyone seeking to understand the power of engagement, the strength found in empathy, and the laughter that lightens the load of learning to be the best dad possible.
