As a participator sport, golfing has been gaining in popularity for quite a while now. But the History of Golf actually goes way back, and has evolved into a very technical sport. Golf is thought to have originated in Scotland in about the fifteenth century. Hitting stones with sticks over grass and sand and into rabbit holes is the legend of its Scottish beginning.

Of course there is no unanimity in the acceptance of that story since there were other more or less competitive activities involving sticks and balls going on. But it is likely that Scotland did help popularize this game of counting the number of hits it takes to hit some kind of a ball into a hole. When the Royal Family took up the sport it was given international exposure, and golf gained in popularity in a big way.

By the early 1800’s golf was being enjoyed by both women and men. Golf clubs at this time, were designed in basically the same way as they are now. The rules of golf were very similar to those of the modern game by this time as well. However, with the handmade clubs and balls being on the expensive side, the game of golf was mostly enjoyed only by people having enough money as well as the time.

Mass production of golf clubs made of metal began late in the nineteenth century, bringing equipment prices down and thus putting the sport in reach of more and more of the world’s sporting population. Affordability did wonders for the popularity of the game. Throughout the world golf courses and the fore runners of country clubs were being built. In 1894 the USGA was founded as participation in the sport of golfing soared. Golf was added as an Olympic sport in 1900 and the Professional Golfers Association (PGA) was formed fourteen years later.

Over the years, rapid improvement in the technical aspects of golf equipment design and production resulted in lower prices and golfers getting better results when hitting the ball. Money increasingly flowed in to the sport as golf tournaments flourished all over the world, providing a huge audience for marketers to hawk their goods and services. At the same time as television began taking off in the 1950′s, the emergence of superstar golfers drew the interest of millions of viewers. The popularity of top golfers drew ever more followers to televised golf and at the same time encouraged more people to take up the game.

In today’s market, a golf-phenom like Tiger Woods attests to the draw of the game of golf by putting the sport on the radar of virtually everyone who looks at the television or newsstand. Pro golfers demonstrate ever more tremendous skill. Weekend players and amateurs play and practice and embrace the developments in the sport. Even Computer Golf Games are able to entertain and challenge millions of virtual golfers.

Throughout the world, people of all ages are enjoying golf. Golf instruction is readily available at courses, clubs, schools and shops, for anyone who wants to learn the basics or to improve their skills. For many, the availability of golf has become an important consideration in planning vacations and business trips. In summary, the game of golf has become immensely popular, entertaining and challenging millions of people.

The financial crisis dejour – throughout time, financial markets have followed a crowd mentality.  The more popular a market gets, the more people want to buy in, and the higher the prices are pushed up.

This social experience has occured throughout history and the cycles can be analyzed consistently.  Professor Watson teaches serial entrepreneurs and the role in the market economy. Regardless of whether we want to evaluate recent finance markets which have Pop, these fluctuations are not unique.  They have consistently occurred throughout history.

One of the most discussed historical markets that broke was Amsterdam’s Tuplip market.  We can consider the Tulipmania of the tulip market that burst in 1637 as a popularly known historical account of a market that overheated.

Tulips were originally introduced from Turkey in the early 16th century.  As new “varieties” of tulip bulbs were sold, competition intensified and their value soared.  One legitimately rare variety was the Semper Augustus which reached values in excess of 1,000 florins per single bulb in 1623.  This price was more than six times the average annual wage.

This economic mania continued – and ten years later the price had increased another ten fold.  At the market peak, the price of a single Semper Augustus bulb reached 10,000 florins – the equivalent of what it cost to acquire a house in central Amsterdam at the time.

With time the market peaked and there was no-one remaining who still wanted to acquire these tulips at such high valuations.  Within months, the market value crashed and many of people were left in financial ruin.

Throughout history – we have seen similar bubbles develop.  As the crowd mentality continues to get more excited, those contrary voices become less and less popular to be heard.  Are any of the recent market bubbles any different?  In modern times of PC speech, are the contrarian voices that stand up for character, ethics, and honesty any different?  Throughout time, these contrarian voices have been denigrated and ignored.  But the market for products and the market for ideas has a way of always correcting itself from the heat of the crowd mentality – and those politically correct views tend to have their bubbles burst as the inevitable correction occurs. Today’s market is no different.
