I was not too happy when I looked out my window this morning. There was this very strange white stuff on the ground. It was very cold and wet. There was more of it falling from the sky. It is called snow.
Yes, snow on October 12th. Today marks the first [...]

I shot the two photos within five minutes of each other while stuck in traffic. Photo one the guy not only has a golf hole airbrushed on to the back of his truck, his licence plate cover says “no putts.” Photo two is obviously a “HOG” (Hooked On Golf Blog) fanatic.

Yes today is my birthday. Every year now I lose some distance off the tee, I get a few more gray hairs, my eyebrows get bushier (thanks pop), and I lose a few billion more brain cells.
Below is my list of eligible gifts I’d be willing to accept. This is the SAME list I posted [...]

Man, is there any golf entity that twists the facts around more than Nike’s advertising department? Remember back when Nike said they had the most played irons at the Masters, after they paid all the 70 year old former champions to play them? Remember when Nike said they had the “#1 ...

The friendship I’ve had with the reclusive and elusive Eat Golf has been one of mystery. Digital. Virtual. Though I knew him online, I never physically met “Eat” a.k.a. Rich for years. My relationship with this mysterious member of the original five golf bloggers was one of ...

I forgot to mention a while back that I met Duffy Waldorf at the last golf show in Vegas. Duffy was there to help out his wife’s golf hat business called Gogie Girl.
Duffy was very cool and personable. We had the chance to chat for a few minutes. I was going to do a video [...]

Back in this post I discussed the FootJoy MyJoys concept. MyJoys can be custom designed with the base shoe being one of many of the FootJoy line. I built a set of my own MyJoys with my Utah Utes logo and have been evaluating them since then.
My Utah Utes football team are 6-0 [...]

Greg Norman has had a heck of a year, from getting married to contending in the British Open. Add that to what is surely the highlight of his year, meeting me. To make Greg’s year a complete home run, I’m doing a review on my first piece of Greg Norman apparel, the Play [...]

On September 27th 2005 I did my first post about Golf Dash. Today I was saddened to hear from my friend Douglas at Golf Dash. They’re shutting it down after three years of working it hard and putting their hearts and pocket books into trying to make it fly. This quote hit me hard:

A few posts back I showed my new custom Golf Space tees which were made by my friends at Forte Promotions. Today I’m featuring the new Hooked On Golf Blog divot tools, also made by Forte.
I’ve made 500 of these divot tools and I intend to give every last one of them away not [...]

I just got my USGA membership goodie pack for 2009. Inside was my card, bag tag and the best part, a hat from the 2009 US OPEN at Beth Page Black.
I think most golf fans would pony up $15 for a US OPEN golf hat alone, but the $15 for a USGA membership gets [...]

I can barely walk right now. On the 4th hole today I stepped into the cart with my left foot. I put my weight on that leg and then my foot slipped out completely, throwing all my body weight into the cart. My right shin took the entire force of my body [...]

If you are traveling to Lake Tahoe and need a place to stay, here’s my take of the Embassy Suites on the south shore.

There are two major casino resorts on the south shore, Harrah’s and Harveys. They’re the center of the gaming and shows, along with Bill’s ...

What a spectacular day today at Edgewood Tahoe. The weather was flawless and the usual afternoon winds didn’t kick up. Unlike yesterday, I had time to warm up. I even had quite a lengthy putting green and driving range practice session. Note to self: practice more. It helps. I played [...]

Man. Edgewood Tahoe is a beautiful golf course. Lake Tahoe is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen.
So far my favorite holes at Edgewood are the 15th, which I made birdie on, and the 17th which is pictured here in this post.
I’ll have a full review of the course on the ...

Last couple of days the first joint in my right hand pinky has been hurting pretty bad. Even if I touch it lightly there’s pain. It is seriously inflamed. I don’t feel any bumps or lumps so I think (hope) it is just some tendonitis.
I’m starting a three day golf marathon [...]

Golf clubs with laser beams on them. Odd contraptions you hook to your arms, legs, feet, head. Glasses and contacts with special lenses which help you hit better golf shots. Computer programs, iPhone GPS tracking systems… I’ve seen everything known to man in golf. I’ve got a ...
