The Spotted Warrior

I received my new MacBook Pro in the mail the other day and I'm back in business. I'll be able to save everything that was on my old hard drive which is a good thing. By the way, if you don't have a back up drive. Get one. I got lucky this time. It's not worth losing all of your information.One of the features I like about my laptop is that it comes...

Soooo Jealous Right Now

I just got off the telephone with my buddy, The Doctor. He had just boarded the shuttle that was taking him to The Inn at Spanish Bay, which their website describes as "...nestled among majestic Monterey pines and fronted by a Scottish-style links golf course that touches some of the most breathtaking coastline in the world..."

This is a first for me. I'm writing this post on my iPhone. Why am I using my iPhone? It's because my laptop is no longer working. Why is it no longer working? It's because my 180 lb. Great Dane thought he heard someone outside and jumped over me and my laptop, knocking over the drink that was sitting on the table. Ugh!!!I dried it off as quickly as...

Positive Affirmations (Thoughts) + Actions = Results

I received a comment from Jordan, a fellow golf blogger, on the post in which I talked about setting new goals. I thought I would answer him with this post. You can check out his blog, Peerless Golf Experience. Lots of good information on how to keep your mind focused while on the golf course. The last part of his comment was, "Obviously you worked...

Shakira Has A Nice Golf Swing

Apparently Shakira is using her hips for something more than dancing and entertaining her millions of fans. Shakira likes golf! And as you will see in the following video, she has a good looking swing. The footage is of a recent trip to Mexico. We don't get to see her on the course itself, but we do get to see her do work on the driving range. I wonder...

It's All About Consistency

Busy, Busy, Busy. This is how I would describe this past week. Although I have been too busy to post for a few days, I have however, been able to squeeze in a few rounds. My other obligations have just made it hard to find the time to scribe about my activities on the golf course. Things are getting back to normal, and with this, I have developed a...
