For those who wanted to get the flavor of my club’s Hell Day tournament, here’s a YouTube video below for your enjoyment.

The weather is changing here. The grass on the courses has slowed or stopped growing. When the courses aren’t covered in winter snow here in Utah and the grass is dormant, the lies in the fairways or anywhere there’s short grass, can be very tight.
Chipping with higher lofted ...

Forget golf for a second. I used to drop by the CNN web site on a daily basis to check up on the rest of the world apart from golf. Now I’m going to find a new place to go. The new design of their site sucks. To make it worse, the ads are insanely [...]

Today is the annual Hell Day Tournament at my local club. This is the last event of the year. The tournament was snowed out last week so today is the rescheduled day. I got this idea from a club I was in a few years ago. During Hell Day, we set the course up completely [...]

Good news for Tiger addicts, he’s playing this week in Shanghai at the WGC HSBC Champions, Sheshan International golf course. Phil Mickelson and many other bigs will be there too. So late in the season (snow has flown here already but melted) we can watch some good golf on TV this ...

Last night Lanny Wadkins, Jose Maria Olazabal and Christy O’Connor Sr. were inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame. Olazabal was in tears as Seve Ballesteros gave his presentation speech saying “Enjoy this special night and from me, receive a big hug.”

Left is my golf buddy Marius and right is Arnie. They’re next to the most photographed “smoking area golf sign” in the northern hemisphere of our planet. The tee is north of the sign, which faces west. Therefore, Marius is smoking his cigarette within the boundary between ...

I don’t get out to other golf blogs as often as I’d like to these days. I’m very busy with my own golf blog here, The Golf Space, running some other sites, attempting to play golf and have some semblance of a personal life.
Since I’m feeling a bit of writer’s ...

The LPGA has named Michael Whan as their new commissioner. Whan was previously an executive VP for TaylorMade-Adidas and president CEO of Mission-Itech Hockey.
I’m not the biggest LPGA fan in the world. In fact I haven’t watched an LPGA tournament since Annika Sorenstam retired. ...

SUMI-G and my golf pal Marius (President) have received their first patent on their very innovative head covers. They didn’t specify in their press release if the patent was regarding the “mechanical enclosure” or the “rigid exoskeleton.” Either way congratulations ...

I wish I could have spent a few hours writing up a great tribute to Payne Stewart, one which would do him justice.
Today marks the 10 year anniversary of his death in that strange accident on that private plane. I just spent a few minutes explaining to my lady who Payne Stewart was and darn [...]

The PGA Tour Player of the Year award has yet to be announced. That one is determined by the ...

My home course is really getting anal detail oriented with marking yardages….
Me: “Hey Dave what is my inchage.”
Dave: “145 inches to the pin.”
Me: “Oh. Thanks. I have too much club.”
Dave: “Maybe, but it is uphill three inches and it is about a ...

I’ve got a new secret weapon lately. Nope it isn’t a new putter or new brand of golf ball. The last 4-5 rounds I’ve played I’ve been wearing a BHPLUS magnetic health band from Bio-Health Jewelry. The band (should I call it a bracelet?) promotes overall health and ...

Jan 38-30 in Orlando, Florida is the 2010 PGA Merchandise Show. For the 2nd year in a row after a period of not participating, Titleist will have a presence there as well as at the demo day. Demo day is the day before the show starts on the show floor.
I plan on attending the show [...]

Six days ago I threw my back out. Last time I threw it out, it took two weeks for the pain and spasms to subbide and my game was a wreck when I came back.
This week I tried my new inversion table (where you hang upside down like a bat) for the first time, and [...]

How many golf hats do you have? If you are like me, that is a triple digit number. I can’t go anywhere in my house, garage, car, bathroom, deprivation chamber… without tripping over a golf hat.
I’ve been trying to figure out some way of storing all these billions of hats ...

I was just bragging posting about the 11,000th image in the HOG photo gallery recently. I just realized now that there’s another thing to brag about mention: 2500 posts.
Yes, I’ve posted 2500 golf blogs here. Once again, I figure if I post 2500 golf blogs 1-2 of them may be good, ...

Today is Ernie Els’ 40th birthday.
Happy birthday Ernie. Glad you modeled your swing after mine.

With the last image added to the HOG Photo Gallery of Nessie the Loch Ness monster, the gallery has now reached the 11,000 mark!
I figure if I shoot 11,000 pictures, one or two may turn out to be good shots if not just by accident.
I’ll keep shooting and remember, “No smoking or ...
