Jack Nicklaus interview at the Honda Classic

I’m currently listening to the Jack Nickalus interview live from the Honda Classic.  I say listening because I can’t get any video working from PGATour.com on these darn things.

Jack on Tiger Woods today:

“I’m surprised he hasn’t bounced back by now.”

“He’ll do it (win) again.”

On Augusta & The Masters:

“Its a neat place.  When I get there its business as usual.”

On players running to their swing coach after every round:

Jack Grout taught him to make his own adjustments to his swing, even during tournaments.

There has been a fire at the home of Aaron Baddeley’s parents in Melbourne, Australia.  The home suffered about $800K in damage.  It took 50 firefighters an hour to bring the fire under control.

I’m glad to report that everyone made it out without serious injury, including “22 years of (golf) memories.”

2 min to get out 2 rooms were untouched! fam photos and my golf room with memoribilla! Amazed by God’s protection 22 years of memories there” ~Aaron Baddeley via twitter


Plumb Bob Correctly

Plum Bob CorrectlyWow this is my 2nd golf book review in one day.  I’m on fire.  Granted, this book is less than 10 pages long but who is counting?

I don’t plum bob on the putting green.  Never have.  But I have buddies who do.  I’ve always worried that I’m not hanging the putter shaft perfectly vertical and that I’ll get a worse read as a result.  Now that I know more about it, I may give it a try.

For those who do plum bob and want to improve, or those who want to learn how to plum bob on the greens, here’s a book for you.  Plum Bob Correctly is a tiny reference book by Jack Geers.  This short and easy to read book is small enough to fit in your pocket or your golf bag and goes through the how and why of plum bobbing putts.

If you don’t plumb bob and you miss read putts often, give this a shot.  You might make more putts and lower your scores.


Golfweek’s 101 Winning Golf Tips

Golfweek 101 tipsI don’t read a lot of golf books.  I get sleepy two pages into the read, regardless of how good the book is.  It must be genetic.  As a result my book review queue could fill up a small library.

But a book like Golfweek’s 101 Winning Golf Tips (Second Edition) I can and did read, because it isn’t a book that has to be read from front to back.  This book is more of a reference which can be accessed for specific shots, situations or techniques.  This is a great book to leave at your desk and just read a tip or two every day, or even better keep it handy in the bathroom…

101 Shots

As you may have guessed, there are 101 featured shots/tips with easy to read full descriptions on setup and execution.  Many of the tips are supplemented with high quality color photos of famous tour pros executing the shot or the setup.

Author John Andrisani does a nice job of describing the techniques and setups needed to execute the 101 shots as well as telling the reader the best situations to use those shots.
