Tiger follows the script (again) on ESPN

March 22, 2010

Thought you’d be interested in Tiger’s interview with ESPN……speaking to the press for the first time since THAT car accident.

More pre-prepared comments, and seemingly pre-arranged questions, but good to see him back in front of the cameras. Looking forward to the Masters, as is everyone. I get the feeling that Tiger believes that [...]

What I learnt about my golf game today

March 20, 2010

My Scorecard (Saturday, 20th March)

I had a good result this week, shooting 76 off the stick. That included 4 birdies, which I would guess is the most birdies I’ve ever had in a single round. You never know what’s just a round the corner with this game!
As well as I played this week, I still [...]

What I learnt about my golf game today

March 13, 2010

My Scorecard (Saturday, March 13th)

Today’s round was a real mixed bag. I played some pretty good golf for the first half of the round, getting through 11 holes in 5 over. Standing on the 12th tee, I felt my game was in good shape and was confident of finishing out the round well and shooting [...]

March 7, 2010

Jack Nicklaus reckons Tiger will play in the Masters this year……let’s hope he’s right.
Here’s a reminder of what we’ve missed these last few months. I’ve seen this slow motion footage a few times, and haven’t tired of it yet.

Tips for buying golf clubs online

March 3, 2010

I recently wrote an e-book (”Guide to Buying Golf Clubs Online”) which I’m giving away when you sign up to my weekly Video Swing Tips newsletter…………………..over there
Today, I’m giving the e-book a plug. I’m generally not at ease with the sales and marketing stuff, but I feel pretty comfortable about promoting my e-book because I [...]

The Tube: Vijay’s Hop, Skip and Dunk

February 28, 2010

Plenty of people have seen Vijay’s hole in one during Tuesday practice at the 2009 Masters, but just in case you missed it, here it is.
It’s apparently a long standing tradition for players to skip the ball across the water during practice on 16 after hitting their tee shots. No-one has executed quite like Vjiay. [...]

Finally, found a golf podcast worth listening to!

February 24, 2010

I wrote a post about golf podcasts a few weeks ago, and lamented the lack of quality content for golf fans. Well, I’m happy to report that there exists a golf podcast actually worth listening to…..in my humble opinion anyway. It’s called the Devil Ball Golfcast, and is hosted by Jay Busbee. Jay is also [...]

The Tube: Justin Leonard and THAT Ryder Cup

February 21, 2010

I was watching one of the PGA Tour’s ‘Outside the Ropes’ interviews the other day, this one with Justin Leonard. In it he mentions the 1999 Ryder Cup and 1997 British Open wins as his most memorable moments as a professional golfer, saying that he couldn’t choose one over the other.
It says a lot about [...]

5 of the best Golf Apps for your (our) iPhone

February 17, 2010

I‘ve had my iPhone for a few months now, enough time to try out way too many golf apps……and I’ve had some mixed experiences (I wrote about my thoughts on the iSwing app a few weeks ago).
There are literally hundreds (possibly thousands) of golf apps for the iPhone, and many of them are fresh off [...]

The Tube: A look inside the PGA Tour’s Shotlink

February 13, 2010

I read an interesting article over at Sandbox8.com recently about Shotlink, the system used by the PGA Tour to gather and analyze stats for all of the PGA Tour events.
I’ve wondered how the commentators know, for example, that Phil Mickelson has holed 156 out 165 putts inside 5 feet this year, or that Steve Stricker [...]
