Parker McCollum forced to face the truth, Scotty McCreery teaches his son proper form | Music City Minute

Before meeting his wife, Parker McCollum didn’t think he would have kids. In his mind, he thought he would be too consumed with his career. All those feelings changed though after he married Hallie Ray and their son, Major Yancey, was born. He absolutely loves being a dad to his 10-month-old, but his wife made a comment recently that shook him into his core. “Isn’t it weird to think we won’t be here for his whole life?” Hallie nonchalantly queried. The moment of self-realization sent the “Pretty Heart” singer into a tailspin, but he recovered quickly. McCollum goes to confirm that every cliché about kids being the best thing in the world is absolutely true.
Speaking of dads and sons, Scotty McCreery posted a video of him and his son Avery during a golf lesson. The adorable clip shows the “Five More Minutes” singer standing behind his two-year-old on the putting green. The two of them line up a shot and swing together however, the golf ball did not reach its intended destination. In true toddler form, Avery chased after the ball swinging at it a few more times, but never completing the shot. We’ll give Avery an “A” for effort!
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
