I’d like to put a little golf blog post about a golf blog post about a golf blog post that mentioned a golf blog post.
The web crawlers might need counseling after this.
I’m writing this review this morning in slightly different conditions than normal. All night last night it rained extremely hard. My house is engulfed in clouds and the power just went out. I still have some warm coffee in the coffee pot and I have a fire going. I’m running on battery power in my laptop.
Taylormade’s Original Rescue Hybrid has been extremely popular, and many companies have followed suit releasing hybrid clubs. The hybrid has been the hottest golf concept for the last couple of years. (Even though the actual concept has been around for decades). Golfers left and right are leaving their long irons in the garage and replacing them with hybrids.
Enter the new Rescue Dual with the TM Movable weight system, which is found on the r7, Monza Corza Putter and some r5 series clubs. The Rescue Dual has an italic T shaped sole plate with the two movable weights toward the outer rear of the club. As discussed in my previous reviews of TM’s movable weight system, you can configure the club for neutral, draw or fade bias.
Nick Faldo goes gaga over Tiger’s shots so much I bet he has to bring a change of underwear to the announcer’s booth. Just a thought.
So the WGC-Amex Championship ends with two tied at the top. Tiger and Daly…. Just what the doctor ordered!
Tiger launches his tee shot on the first playoff hole 346 yards into the first cut right of the fairway. Then Daly casually whacks one 357 yards down the middle but didn’t even watch it because he was too busy picking up his cigarette off the tee box. Could these guys be any different, personality and “body-temple” wise?
On the 2nd playoff hole sadly Daly misses a 3 foot putt that would have sent them off to a 3rd. It really should not have ended that way, and you could tell Tiger felt bad for JD. JD just got a little too careless and quick on that putt and should have taken a few more seconds to size it up. But that’s the way he operates and you can’t argue with his latest run of success.
This victory marks the “already player of the year” Tiger’s 6th of the season. What a hack.
40 years ago today Bonneville’s club house was dedicated.
Oh, and 40 years ago today I was born.
That must be why I play so well at Bonneville
While browsing The Sand Trap golf forum, I came across a thread covering the new Natalie Gulbis 2006 calendar. I’m always looking for excuses to put cute women in bikinis in a golf blog post so this seemed like a great opportunity to do that.
I must say the “new direction” the LPGA Tour seems to be heading is a big improvement. But really, Natalie Gublis looks much more cute and intriguing in her golf skirt and hat than in a bikini. Is the all mighty dollar THAT important?
