Stolen Holes: A Series

Par 3 includes two rounds at Byrncliff, down and out (but not down and out) in Varysburg, east of Wales Center on 20A. The first round was the one where you say “All right! Got this game figured out…” while the second was “Is this...

RecycleView-Interview With Tom Doak

This interview with Tom Doak, once the enfant terrible of golf course architecture in the eyes of some, now an elder statesman, ran in April of 2010. The new golf course building industry in the USA has taken a major hit, virtually at a standstill. Architects find...

Things I Know I Think…

*I know that this game is challenging. It’s even more challenging when you don’t have time to practice. Since the high school season ended, I’ve been out each weekend for 18 holes and have found success and failure in different ways and in different...

“What the heck was that?”

That was the response of my friend as he and I watched my first tee shot of the year clip a tree branch and bounce into the fairway of the hole running parallel to the hole I was playing. I pulled the brim of my hat a little lower and watched the ball bounce and...

A Fool For a Caddy

It’s entirely possible that Steve Williams never knew of Tiger Woods’ philandering ways earlier in his career. It’s plausible that Williams got more than a raw deal from Woods. Maybe Tiger did Steve the courtesy of sitting down and telling him it was...

The Weekender: Post Halloween Blues

I’ve always liked week-long celebrations, despite never making it to Mardi Gras or Carnaval. It seems a gyp that Halloween is a one-nighter. I don’t worship evil, mind you, but I love lighting the pumpkins up at watching them glow each evening. Don’t...

Stolen Holes: A Series

Part Two: Dirty Golf Unbelievably, I snuck out for more golf on Thursday, again while the monkeys were off dancing. After, I went across the street to have my Two-Ball extended into a belly putter, but that’s another tale (yet unwritten) for another time. You...

Sergio Is Back – At Least That’s What I Hear

I did good. Heck, for me, I did phenomenal by keeping my mouth shot and not talking about how great Sergio Garcia has been playing as of late. If you haven’t been following, Garcia has won the last two event he’s played in. He won the Castello Masters by...

Stolen Holes: A Series

Part One: The Seven Stages of Fall Muni Golf Given the fortune of working near Colvin & Amherst, knowing that child # 4 would be at play rehearsal until 8 pm, I dropped # 3 off at dance and shot back to work this afternoon. Not to do additional work, mind you, but...

RecycleView-Recycled Interview with Brady Riggs

This interview first appeared in September of 2010 (about a year ago) and is a deserved first installment of RecycleView. We’ve read Brady Riggs in GolfTips Magazine for years and dig his look almost as much as we respect his teaching. Read on and play on!...

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...

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...
