Tonight I had some tough duty. I had to review some gourmet gluten free mint fudge. How a golf blog ends up with mint fudge to review is beyond me but I’m not complaining.
Sweet & Saucy
Sweet & Saucy is a mother/daughter company which makes many different caramels and sauces. Their recipes and batches are hand made from natural ingredients you don’t need to look up in a dictionary.
Mint Fudge
Tonight’s mint fudge was so insanely tasty. I scooped up some vanilla ice cream and poured some of the fudge (heated) on top. Talk about heaven. My kids loved it too, and had fun giving me their critiques, all good. They’d like to see me do more reviews on chocolate items and less reviews of golf equipment.
Fudge & Golf?
Like I said, I have no idea how mint fudge and golf are related. There’s an old golfer’s tale I heard once though from a mysterious Scotsman I met once. It said something along the lines of “golfers who eat mint fudge play very well and win all their bets the next day on the course.”
I hope that tale is right because my weekly big money Thursday game is tomorrow. If that proves to be true, I’ll be celebrating my win tomorrow evening with even more mint fudge!
For the first week in a long time, I didn’t screw up and forget to set up my fantasy golf team. That is because the PGA Tour isn’t playing this week. This has been set up so the players are “rested” before the grand (or not so grand as the case may be) finale and then the Ryder Cup the following week.

This is the final video I’m posting from the 2008 Vegas PGA Expo. I saved this video for the final post because this product has my vote for the coolest product I found at the show.
Golf Flyover is an application for the Apple iPhone which turns the phone into a golf GPS. You can track your yardages on over 12000 courses on your iPhone. In addition, you can view flyovers of the holes on the course. This is so freakin’ cool. If you’re playing a course you’ve never seen before you can do a flyover and see the terrain and hazards etc. Finally, there’s a break reader which uses the acceleromter of the iPhone. You simply put the phone on the putting green and it will show you the break.
I’ll be doing a full review of Golf Flyover soon.
Golf Gators is a new company who’s very cool golf shoes will be available in January 2009. The unique thing about Golf Gators is that they’re the first company to make golf flip flops and various other ultra-casual golf shoes. I interview the “Pimp” and the “Stud” below.
Note to Pimp and Stud:
Thanks for the frosty beverage…
Man I just can’t believe what things golf inventors will come up with. This one is one of the most ridiculous items I’ve seen in quite some time. A golf club with a chain on it. Yeah that’ll help.
