Dennis Walters was a rising star in the collegiate level of golf and seemed to be on the verge of qualifying for the PGA Tour when a freak golf cart accident left him paralyzed from the waist down.

He would never walk again.

He told Growing Bolder that everyone told him he would never play golf again either. So, he learned how to hit a golf ball sitting down.

Now, he travels across the country and performs thousands of trick-shot shows a year.

He described what crazy shots he's dreaming up now and how he's about to embark on a new challenge -- teaching wounded war vets how to rediscover the game of golf.
