During this period, Hank also found time to compete throughout the Pacific Northwest in PGA-sponsored events, all the while continuing to instruct many students, some of whom have been his clients for 30-plus years. Throughout the years, he was passionate about making golf accessible to all Portlanders and was involved in the development of numerous programs to grow the game.
