Just Put That Dumb Guy On That Dumb Guy - Golf's Ugliest Swings

Everyone has their own authentic swing. I have heard golf instructors say that the only thing that matters in the swing is how the clubface impacts the ball. There have been many golfers on the professional tours that have been successful with less than perfect looking swings. The one thing that they all have in common is that they get themselves into...

Upset Vs. Disappointment At The WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship

Before the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship, I started to fill out a bracket sheet and then I stopped. It is an impossible task. There is no rhyme or reason to picking who could win on any particular day. We have all heard that golf is a game of inches, but it is also a game that separates players by decimal points.  When it comes to the...

Ben Crane Takes Out Rory McIlroy And Makes Funny Videos

Ben Crane is hilarious and he is a good golfer as well. After two rounds, he made his way into the sweet 16 of the WGC - Accenture Match Play Championship being held at The Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Marana Arizona. The 10 seed defeated Australia's Adam Scott 4 and 2 yesterday and dismantled Rory Mcilroy today beating him 8 and 7. Still it seems no...

David Feherty Says, "Always Hit Your Target"

David Feherty is one of my favorite golf personalities. The former pro always has the best one-liners during a golf telecast. His analogies always leave me laughing as I watch the pros do their thing as I sit on my couch.Besides being an on-course announcer, Feherty has touched the lives of many through his work with America's injured soldiers. After...

Chipping And Putting At Kokopelli Golf Club

I visited Kokopelli Golf Club today for a little putting and chipping practice. I shared that I had found a good driving range and I think I will continue to work on my full swing at that location. Kokopelli's range was crowded, so coming here might mean a lengthy wait just to hit balls.Kokopelli has a nice practice area where one can work on all facets...

Aaron Baddeley Wins The Northern Trust Open With His Eyes Closed

Well...Not really. What I am referring to is something that I noticed in Aaron Baddeley's pre-shot routine which may have been the secret as to why he won The Northern Trust Open held at the famed Riviera Country Club. Just before he walks up to his ball, he closes his eyes. It's only for about two or three seconds, but for a moment, he is in his own...

Short Term Memory Is A Good Thing In Golf

My virtual swing coach Mike Southern usually does a swing analysis of the winner of the tournament from the previous weekend. The latest installment featured D.A. points, winner of the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am.This post was very informative about his swing but it also gave me a little lesson about a certain mentality that I should bring...

Stop Being So Pushy

I paid another visit to Arizona Biltmore Country Club yesterday. I was joined by The Doctor, Bryse, and T-Mose. I was eager to play the Links Course again because I felt that I could shoot better than the 91 that I put up on Monday. This was only my second time playing this course, but I figured that since I had seen the course once before, I would...
