So it is January 6, 2010. I can’t quite remember the last time I hit a golf ball. Wait, it is coming back to me. It was last year, December 21st. For me to go 16 days without playing golf is like Obama going 29 seconds without saying the word “change.” It is like JD going 12 minutes without a beer, TW going two hours without… oh boy. Nevermind.
For my last few rounds before Antarctica struck (and don’t get me started on the global warming farce because I’m freezing my golf balls off right now) I played with the new Bridgesone e6 Straight golf ball. Straight is a good thing on my home course, because left is hazard and right is hazard. Well, short is hazard and long is hazard too but I can hit a straight ball right into a water hazard short.
Should I start over? I feel like I’m twisting my own brain into a pretzel. How one twists three braincells (the max my cranium can hold) into a pretzel is another story… Think my medication prescription ran out? Nope, it is just winter here. And winter sucks because I can’t golf.
e6 Straight
OK I have to ask before I do my e6 “Straight” overview. Is there an e6 “gay” or as I prefer to say in a more politically correct manner, “e6 heterosexually challenged?”
Thank you very much. I’ll be here all weekend.
OK I promise I’ll be good… (more…)
The 2010 fantasy golf season is here and we have some new twists. First, we’ve decided to leave the confusion which is Yahoo fantasy golf and try out a new system from our friends at Kerplookee.com. The old Yahoo fantasy golf system didn’t allow a league of our size to exist, so we had to create several leagues. This was a logistical nightmare and added confusion. This season all of HOG SPACE Fantasy Golf will be in one place, so the standings and results will be easy to access.
GREAT PRIZES
Over the past fantasy golf seasons we’ve had sponsors like OGIO, FootJoy, Bobby Jones, Nicklaus Golf, Rife Putters, Tattoo Golf and more. This year we plan on announcing some big name sponsors and great prizes shortly. We usually announce the sponsors after the PGA Merchandise Show, when we’ve finalized the details. Stay tuned.
WHERE AND HOW TO SIGN UP
1. Point your browser to Kerplookee.com.
2. Create an account if you don’t have one. It is easy.
3. Click on “Join a private league.”
4. Enter league ID 145
5. Password is: Masters

In order to increase accuracy, I’m going with a shorter driver this year.
I’m returning from my golf blogging break. I haven’t posted anything since last year. Back to blogging and this infuriatingly wonderful game called golf.
Happy New Year. I look forward to 2010. There is a LOT of stuff coming for this year so stay tuned!
