Less than 48 hours ago I played golf in shorts and a long sleeve golf shirt…
That’s what it’s like living in my neck of the woods. Time for working on the web sites, putting and swing mechanics indoors, building an indoor putting green, hitting balls into a net in the garage. Anyone out there work for a company that makes golf nets? I need one.
Nickent Pipe Putter: Gimmick or not?
I’ll admit when I first saw the Pipe putter I couldn’t help laughing. “Someone took a mallet putter and put a piece of PVC down the middle of it?” I thought. When I brought it to my regular weekend golf group they laughed too…untill I drained putts like a madman and took all their money.
Tiger is giving Fred Funk some grief about the fact that Annika may be driving it past him this weekend in the Skins Game.
This “hit and giggle” event will have Tiger Woods, Fred Couples (Mr. Skins Game), Fred Funk and Annika Sorenstam.
Predictions?
I’m going to say Freddie wins the most dough, Tiger next, Funk and then Annika.

Being Thanksgiving and the fact that I don’t have to go to turkey dinner for another 3 hours I thought I’d start up the first annual Hooked On Golf Blog Turkey Awards. If you have some other turkeys I’m not thinking of comment them in!
Congratulations to the winners of the 2005 HOG Turkey Awards.
Any I didn’t think of?
