I GOT EM!!!!!
They are beautiful. I mean REALLY beautiful. The gap wedge might be my favorite as far as appearance goes, but they all look so great in my golf bag.
As great as they look, the performance is equally as good. I hit them high and the ball lands so soft…like my buddy Matt says, “A butterfly with sore feet.” But rather than extol the virtues and sound like I am selling something, I am going to focus on the negatives. Read more…

I know I have been a touch off topic lately, but sometimes I just have to talk. It is a gift, and a curse,I know ha ha.
So, I will preface this by saying that Mark McGwire is one of my all time favorite sports figures. I can remember playing baseball in the park with the neighborhood kids and standing with my feet pigeon toed just like Mark did. I never hit the ball as far, but I looked real good trying. Read more…

For golfers living in warmer climates, golfing in the fall is not a problem. Some might talk about having morning delays due to frost or some may have to play in some breezier conditions than usual. The greens can often play firmer in drier climates. I have heard of people even complaining about not being able to wear shorts and a short sleeve polo. To me, having lived in the northwest for almost my entire life, here are some drawbacks that make you think, “alright is this really worth it?” Read more…

Years ago Earl Woods gave an interview where he said that “Tiger is going to change the world.”
Yesterday, that time may have come on Capitol Hill.
I am going to preface this blog by saying that, at the time of writing, I had not heard or read a transcript of Tiger’s speech so I have no basis for conversation of WHAT he said. What I am going to focus on is the fact that he HAD something to say. Read more…

Golf is a confounding sport. Golf equipment is not only confounding, it is downright confusing as anything I have ever tried to wrap my head around. Titanium drivers, Composite drivers, 4 different graphite shafts for the same driver, what women want……… Read more…

Golf technology isn’t dead quite yet
The USGA & The R & A have had their hands full the last 10-15 years in regards to all the rules and regulations they have had to implement due to the increasing innovation by golf club manufacturers. What would golf be like without regulations? 600cc sized driver? Electronic Caddyshack putters that guarantee a one put on every hole? Let’s face it, restrictions are necessary. But does tighter restrictions on club design and technology limit a companies product development? Read more…

I played golf in college for the Lewis Clark State Warriors in Lewiston, Idaho. For those that do not know, the school is small and the town it is located in is small as well. Lewiston is the quintessential blue collar town. Situated on the confluence of two major Northwest rivers, Lewiston’s chief employer is a paper mill. There are 2 courses in Lewiston and 2 in the adjoining Clarkston, Washington. Read more…

I typically do not talk at depth about products that are not in my bag and I rarely get all fired up on gadgets. In fact, I have yet to purhchase a GPS unit or a range finder for my own personal use.
That being said, this Upro GPS is INSANE!!! Read more…
