Bob Parsons: The eccentric man behind PXG clubs

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Littered across the walls of Bob Parsons’ well-appointed office is the history of a life fully lived.

From the Purple Heart medal he was awarded after being injured while on patrol in Vietnam to the faded computer – complete with floppy drive – he used to develop his first accounting program, Parsons’ office, which is located behind one of his numerous motorcycle dealerships, is a reflection of a man who wears many hats.

Parsons is a U.S. Marine, accountant, self-taught computer programmer, domain hosting trailblazer, ordained minister, billionaire and, now, golf club manufacturer.

How influential Parsons may become at the latter remains to be seen.
