Presidents Cup Still Ahead.
The only real professional golf tournament on my radar in the next month is the highly-anticipated Presidents Cup at Royal Melbourne Golf Club in Australia. It’s the stepsister to the Ryder Cup, but it packs as much talent and potential excitement as any other team event in the sport. The U.S. roster features Matt Kuchar, …

Halloween Resolution: The Weekender
I’ve never been much of a conformist, having been raised in those liberal 70s. New Year’s Resolutions aren’t for me; the line is so crowded that I can hardly see my way to the “Top Of The Line” resolution stands. I prefer Halloween, the holiday that falls less than a week after my birthday, so …

How The Buffalo Region Impacts Our Golfing Hearts…
My love for golf never wanes, but it sure knows when to subdue itself. I’ve always been amazed by the fact that as the seasons begin to change in late September and early October, my passion for the game seems to burn less bright. Clearly, there is less golf to watch. There are fewer warm …

Trying To Establish Dominance #4
It’s been a while and for that I apologize. We were briskly counting down the most dominant performances of the past 13 majors and then I got caught up in life. I’d feel bad, but these top four are worth the wait. So, let’s get started… #4 – Phil Mickelson – 2010 Masters

The Midwest Prep Classic was played this weekend at Diamond Hawk golf course in Cheektowaga. Despite rainy weather, the only rumblings heard from the skies came from the twin engines that powered the jet planes during take off and landing.
