Wow! Where did you hear that?

He is a local here, they see him quite regularly at the local driving range and other San Diego North County locations.

Sad to hear that. Jim Flick was my full swing instructor when I attended a Golf Digest Golf School at Tucson Country Club long ago. He is a very nice man that treats everyone well. He worked with all of us regardless of how bad we swung the club. Prayers for he and his family.

This excerpt from Golfweek.

"Though cancer has invaded his body, Jim Flick wanted only to talk about his “kids” and how their golf instruction will continue as they mature into grownup golfers.

“I’m at peace,” said the 82-year-old Flick, speaking on the telephone from his home in Carlsbad, Calif., “and my thoughts are entirely with my kids. We’re taking steps to make sure they keep learning the game the way it’s supposed to be played.”

Flick always has referred to his young students as his kids"

Says a lot about the man.

...and he went out with the same kindness and grace that he showed his whole life.
