Despite their similarities all golf balls are not manufactured to identical specifications; there are in fact some 4,900 and counting patents in existence of which a majority were registered in the past decade.

Some years it is colder and wetter than normal, but most years there aren’t any months we can’t play several rounds a month. But many of our members and golf friends of mine live in colder parts of the United States and other parts of the world. In some cases they stop playing golf in the September-October timeframe and start up again in April or so. Wow, I can’t imagine not playing for that period of ...

Here's the problem with that: most golfers are not hitting the ball as far as they could be with the clubs they already have. Buying a hybrid club will just mean that they will have one more club in their bag that they are not ...
Walking While You Play Golf
One of the things that I have really come to enjoy over the years is playing a round of golf while walking. Sure it is much more convenient and easier to use a golf cart, but if you have never walked a round of golf, I encourage you to give it a try. I have lived and played most of my golf in the deep South. This makes it a bit of a challenge to walk a round of golf due to the heat and humidity. During July and August the heat and humidity can make playing at all a ...
