Dan McLaughlin decided, at 30 years old, to quit his day job and become a professional golfer. The only issue was that he had zero experience in the sport, having never actually played 18 holes of golf. So, he started The Dan Plan, an experiment in one human's potential. The ultimate goal? To see what is possible through 10,000 hours of highly focussed practice. He has been writing about his experiences and recording statistics since the project began in April, 2010. Currently, Dan is somewhere on a golf course or driving range doing what he has not been paid to do for the past 2 years, and loving every minute of it.
