Is it true you need to learn golf if you ever want to reach executive level? Does Golf work that well for business and networking?

If you find a good guy, it can be if you also put the work in. If you find a grifter or dont put the work in its a waste of money.

Nothing replaces practice and time playing.

How do you find a good coach? Find a scratch or better golfer or the best junior on the range and ask them who their coach is.

Maybe, I don't know as I'm not in that work environment but it certainly can't hurt. And golf is loads of fun regardless. It's the most challenging yet rewarding sport I've ever played. And being outside for 3 to 4 hours is a good way to literally touch grass and give your mind a little break from the Internet and screens.

Golf got my business all the way up to level 7 and my networking to level 14. I literally cannot believe all of the business my business is doing from golf.

I am not a golf player but my intuition is that your comment is bullshit. Suppose I wanted to stroll through Hyde Park... Would you call it "destroying nature" only because the park is managed by gardeners? Also, a golf course is quite limited in size, so I do not see why we should condemn this open air practice.

No. Having hobbies does. Being an interesting person. Being a beginner golfer will undoubtedly damage your progress. And you're not going to get good in 3 lessons.

first 500 dollars spent on golf is best spent on lessons to learn the fundamentals of the swing
take 4-5 lessons every 2 weeks or once a months
work on the things you learned at each lesson extensively before the next so you don't spend a lesson working on the same thing as the last lesson
when you play rounds you'll have the tools to get around the course having learned fundamentals. you won't be playing well, but you'll be able to enjoy it
etiquette is most important when you're new/bad. you're going to hit a lot of bad shots, so be sure to hit them quickly. Nothing is worse than a guy in your group who is making a mess and taking a long time to do it. 2 practice swings max, take them before your turn to hit, dont start them when it becomes your turn.
pick up your ball once you double par on a hole
you'll improve your score over time, but your scores will improve quicker if you keep in mind that golf isn't about making good shots, it's about limiting bad ones. a bad first shot means your second shot's objective is to put yourself in a good position for your third shot
one of the great games you can learn to play, and you can play long into old age

You are a low-information retard. Those are all animals you find in plain suburbia too. Massive tracts of flat, manicured greenery are not remotely helpful to nature or biodiversity.
These animals continue to exist (largely adjacent to, and not directly *in*) golf courses in SPITE of them, because they are hardy, adaptable species.

No you don't have to play. But it helps.
The key thing is that you spend 4 hours+ with people your have a financial relationship with . That's a long time. Golf collapses the time time necessary to create trust.

Same is true with drinking. If I close a bar with dudes, odds are they will offer me a job at some point.

for example, notice how whenever women do something impressive, instead of celebrating to themselves, they ALWAYS instantly look around for other people's approval.

this is good except the double par advice. Most new golfers will never finish a hole if you do that. If its a packed course on a weekend and you're 4 deep waiting to tee? sure. but for quiet rounds or more casual stuff at a muni while you're learning, play till ~10 shots.

You dont need lessons

The swing is one fluid motion, always look at the ball, the rest is just muscle memory. You shouldn't swing too hard yet too weak, once that is dialed in you shoot straight as an arrow

true but it's near impossible to learn the right swing without guidance, because of how unintuitive golf swings are
lessons not necessary but you almost need a vet to analyze your swing and drill the nuances
