Who are your Golf Heros?
— golfstinks.blogspot.com — My great uncle severed as a side gunner on a B-26 bomber during WWII, and served as my mentor on the golf course some 50 years later. He flew on 66 missions during the war and was shot down, behind enemy lines, during the battle bulge (his entire crew survived the crash). After the war, he ... (more) Who are your Golf Heros?

Ways to Cheat at Golf
— golfstinks.blogspot.com — How many of you have ever taken a mulligan? CHEATERS! Every damn last one of you! How many times have you hit one out-of-bounds and then announced you'll "just drop one up there" instead of hitting a provisional shot? CHEATERS!

Pimp my Golf Cart

Keeping Yourself in Golf Shape
— golfstinks.blogspot.com — So it’s November and, for the most part, the golf season has wound down. Sure, there will be a few beautiful days left, but not quite enough to warrant consideration of an extended season. So what to do? Without golf, what’s to occupy your Saturday afternoons?

Golfing in Arizona
— golfstinks.blogspot.com — Golfing in Arizona is the most amazing thing this time of the year. The weather is perfect. No one is passing out from 115-degree temps. The snowbirds have not yet arrived so the courses are not crammed with oldsters. Prices are extraordinary. You can get green fees and a cart at public courses ... (more) Golfing in Arizona

Reflections on another Stinky Golf Season
— golfstinks.blogspot.com — Your worst round is still ahead of you. Golf is a game of numbers and since the numeric system is infinite you can always pick your head up after shooting a 153 and say "Could of been worse, coulda' shot a 154..." Albeit if you shot a 153 - I'm sure somewhere along the line you cheated and ... (more) Reflections on another Stinky Golf Season

Autumn on the Links of Connecticut
— golfstinks.blogspot.com — There's something rather majestic about the autumn - something about the atmosphere.

— golfstinks.blogspot.com — Ok, round deux! This just gets better...I think I'm in the wrong business. Everybody wants to lower their score and will do anything (including selling their soul to the devil) to improve the ol' handicap.

How Dangerous Can Golf Be?
— golfstinks.blogspot.com — A real life Chubbs Petersen. How many times have we heard that in the past week? Some poor guy gets half his arm bitten off by a gator and no one feels bad for him.

A Golfer's Dream: How A Regular Guy Played Golf Digest's Top 100
— golfstinks.blogspot.com — About five years ago, I set-out on a quest to play every 18-hole golf course in my state that granted tee-times to non-members (there are 66 of them); I still have one to go, but have been dragging my feet because the course is semi-private and only allows non-members to play a few rounds on ...

Teaching Golf to the Next Generation
— golfstinks.blogspot.com — I don’t know about you, but I hate that guy who lives vicariously through his kid. You know the guy…he’s relentlessly pushing his kid to do something that he never did or never could do back when he had his chance. He played baseball in high school so his kid has no choice but to play also. ... (more) Teaching Golf to the Next Generation
