This week marks one year since we realized that this pandemic was something serious and our world was about to change. I was on a buddies golf trip to St. Augustine and just a few miles from our condo they cancelled play after 36 holes at The Players Championship. We sat there playing cards, drinking...
We’ve heard about golf’s battle on distance for 20 years now. We heard about Augusta National “Tiger Proofing” the course after Mr. Woods tore it up in 1997 by hitting pitching wedges into par 4’s and 6 irons into par 5’s.

This post was originally published last June. This is the time of year for trade-ins and people upgrading to new equipment so use this as a handy guide to identify that often duplicated, counterfeit Scotty putter.
