Okay...first off...golf is great. But to enjoy watching golf, one really has to understand the game.
Just like to enjoy watching competitive shooting, one really has to understand the game.
The difference is...golf is a perfectly acceptable business past-time, and therefore has a ton more practitioners. Take a client to the shooting range and you've got a 50-50 shot of ruining your relationship. Take a client to the country club and even if they don't golf, they can enjoy drinks and a peaceful atmosphere, occasionally broken by the comic relief of old man screaming at tiny white balls....
