Show Notes

We had the honor of visiting with a local legend, Chad Pfiefer, who grew up in Caldwell, played baseball and was a like the "boy next door".  He headed off to fight for his country,  when his battalion hit an IED and it blew off his leg.  In recovery and after he received his prosthetic leg, Chad found that golf was a great sport to play, to help him focus on something other than his missing limb,his depression  and he found he actually enjoyed it!
He enjoyed it so much he ended up becoming a professional golfer,  is sponsored and now plays in tournaments around the world.
 
We know you will enjoy hearing Chad's story and find encouragement that might help you as well.
