Sonartec, one of the pioneers of hybrids, is gonzo. Their doors are shut. I haven’t seen any press releases yet, but they’re done. Their booth at this year’s PGA Show was pretty sad.
Too bad. This company had a ton of potential. I own a Sonartec 19 degree hybrid. I like it. Maybe I’ll be able to get more money than I paid for it on ebay soon since it’s a “collector’s item” now…
Ernie Els isn’t playing this week due to a virus. I’m starting to get a “Duvalesque” vibe from Ernie, though his scores are much better than when David Duval was circling the drain…
Bubba Watson was pretty irritated with Steve Elkington Thursday and Friday at the Zurich Classic. In this video clip you can clearly hear Bubba saying Elkington can “kiss his ass.”
I’m surprised this video hasn’t been yanked by YouTube yet. TGS (Tiger is God Channel) is pretty tight and quick with pulling videos off of YouTube.
Later on, Bubba and Elkington kissed and made up. Bubba also apologized to the media and anyone who might have been “offended.”
Personally I didn’t need the apology. It didn’t offend me at all. He’s not the first one to say “ass” on the golf course.
CBUK is a super-hip golf apparel company. They’re an off-shoot of Cutter & Buck. They branched off because their line was so progressive that a new branding image had to be created. I’ll be doing a monthly quick feature of CBUK golf apparel and products.
This month’s featured CBUK item is new for Spring 2008. I’m loving my super cool golf polo, the CBUK Drytec Best Nines.
Description: Engineered to help you shoot your personal best, the Best Nines features our Cocona fabric technology partnered with a spandex embedded rib knit collar and surprise, surpise a cool little debossed CBUK logo on the back panel. One Color-GLIDE.
