Well, Tiger Woods did it again. Last weekend he spoiled and entertained us with his unworldly talents. But this time it was through his 11 year old son. Its obvious young Charlie has inherited all of his father’s gifts, but he has received some world-class guidance as well. From his incredible impact position to his...
The PGA Tour has announced the revised, tentative schedule for the remaining 2020 season, as well as the fall start for the wrap-around 2020-2021 campaign. 47% of sporting events have been cancelled in 2020, so this step, whether it happens or not, is promising good news. But what will these events look like and how...
First World Problems With the no touching and minimum six foot distancing rules as of late, we have heard that the golf course is one of the safest, germ-free facilities you could attend right now. Course owners and staff have even gone so far as limiting one player per cart, or shut down riding altogether...
Many Christmases ago, Frank Costanza went to buy a doll for his son George. He reached for the last one they had, but so did another man. As he rained blows upon him, he realized there had to be another way. And that is how the holiday Festivus was born. Now if you’ve never watched...
Tiger Woods’ career has been full of firsts; he was the first to finish a US Open at double-digits under par, the first to win all 4 major championships in a row, etc. Sunday he won the first ever PGA Tour sanctioned event in Japan, the ZOZO Championship. But this isn’t about firsts. It’s about...
The cash is in the Technology. As a golfing consumer, you’ve certainly heard of Tour Edge Golf. But that may be it; you’ve heard of them. You vaguely remember seeing an ad in a magazine or on TV, or you passed their rack at your local golf shop. But I encourage you to keep them...
The average 12 handicap player hits about 6 greens in regulation in an 18 hole round. That is a lot of attempts to get up and down around the green, or from 100 yards and in. A pro or scratch player may hit 12-16 greens in a round, but when they do miss one, it...
I always encourage my students to tune in and watch some ladies’ golf when they can, and no better time to start than now. The Country Club of Charleston will host the 75th U.S. Women’s Open this week. Not only will female amateurs learn a ton by viewing, but many males will as well. Not...
The days of 7 and 8 degree drivers are long gone. With 2 irons, balata balls, and metal spikes they belong in the garage or donation bin. You won’t even see a driver with that low amount of loft among today’s equipment at your local pro shop or retail golf store. Sure, most drivers today...
Triumph! Where it all began……. In my best, calming, Jim Nantz voice I say to you “Hello friends.” No, I am not writing to you from inside Butler Cabin, but I am on cloud 9. I practically floated to work this morning with the greatest of ease, listening to all of the joyous commentary on...
