2007 Masters practice round tix ALERT
Who thinks of The Masters in the middle of July when it’s 267 days, 13 hours, 24 minutes, and 18 seconds away? Yours truly.
You have 7 days to get your application into Augusta National for 2007 practice round tickets. I applied last year and didn’t get them. My address is different so I don’t think they’ll find me so I’m sending in a new application.
Details on what do to can be found here:
http://www.masters.org/en_US/about/ticket.html
Anyone who applies and gets their tix would be FOREVER on my best buddy list if they helped me get tix!
Special thanks to The Armchair Golfer for reminding me of the deadline which is July 15th.
Will the “get in the hole” dude please shut up?
Someone smack this guy!
Every PGA tournament there’s some bonehead behind the tee on the par 3’s who yells “get in the hole.” If we all join together and vow to smack this idiot and shut him up we’ll all enjoy the experience more.
Dude, make sure the shot isn’t going in the gallery when you yell “get in the hole” will ya? If you have to yell it, make sure the damn shot is at least going at the flag?
Meg’s inside thoughts on the Women’s U.S. Open
Since Megan Heckeroth, HOG contributor, has played in a Women’s U.S. Open I thought it would be nice to get a quick take from her. I just asked her to give us a quick paragraph on her thoughts:
“I thought that this year’s U.S. Women’s Open was very exciting with all the great players at the top of the leaderboard. Then having an 18 hole playoff on Monday with Annika and Patty.I wasn’t able to watch much of the Open during the weekend but made sure that I watched the playoff. It was really great to see Annika play so well and with so much confidence. You could tell that she was in a groove and nothing was going to get in her way. It was unfortunate that Pat got off to a rough start but this game is about the grind and anything can happen so it was great to see her stay focused and never give up. I loved watching two great players that have a lot of history together and respect each other, fight for something that they both want so very much.â€
Cheers,
Meg
Happy blogday EATGOLF.COM and GOLF GROUCH
Grouchy
The Golf Grouch, one of the best and first golf blogs to hit this planet, is two years old. Grouchy has a good system. He posts about 1 REALLY good post per week which gets lots of good comment action and stirs lots of excellent debate in his comment thread.
The Grouch is a class act and I tip back a frosty beverage in a toast to his golf blog quality and longevity. Here here.
EAT
EatGolf.com‘s 2 year birthday is just a few days after Grouchy’s. Anyone who has frequented this blog knows the HOG and EAT are the best of golf blog friends. Rich (Mr. Eat himself) has helped me out BIG TIME on many occasions with my newbie golf blog and aspiring web geek questions. Not sure I’ll take his advice on picking up chicks, but hey the “golf blog web geek” angle just might work in the bars or at 7-11…
Eat’s golf blog reflects the contents of Rich’s cranium, a vast geek wasteland full of twisted brilliance. You can find anything from great golf tips to golf jokes. The most impressive recent additions to EatGolf.com are his amazing course directory and the brand new Eat Golf Shopper.
Eat Courses
Eat’s course directory utilizes the Google Maps API and gives you locations and directions to every course in the country. Not only that, Rich’s cranium added detailed course information such as prices, amenities and even reader comments.
Eat shopper
The latest from Eat is the Shopper. Type in any golf product and the Eat engine will search the web for the best prices and give them to you in an ebay like listing. Here’s a tip though, it works for other products too. I typed in “panties” and was pleasantly surprised at the results. Ahem…I digress.
Idols
When I started out HOG I looked up at the “big boys” of golf blogging in admiration. I’d hoped to have a blog close to as cool as the Eats and Grouches of the web. Many dozens of golf blogs have come and gone but these guys remain two of the best. Cheers my friends. Here’s to 2 more years.
