This started out as a post about two blogs and it just got out of hand…
Look who is back!
It is with great pleasure that I’ve put Musey’s Hole In One back on my blogroll. Musey is one of the very few rare female golf bloggers out there. She was down for a while but now she’s back.
Look who left…
No Damn Three Putts last post was May 14th…
After only two months of golf blogging, John at Saguaro Open has canned it. I really liked John’s takes there. They had (golf) balls. He wasn’t afraid to call someone out for being a bonehead, or praising someone for the opposite.
I inquired the status of Saguaro and he said he’d basically lost interest and didn’t have the time to put together the quality level of posts he wanted.
He used the same direct fashion he blogged with to describe what happened:
” Saguaro Open has gone the way of a million blogs before it: nowhere.”
TravelGolf Blogs have been shooting themselves in the foot with their bickering about Jay Flemma. Perhaps they can refocus on golf travel and blogging soon…
Loved Bunker Mulligan and I’m very sorry about his passing… He’s the first golf blogger in heaven.
Still going strong:
The Reluctant Jamboy: you MUST check out Jam Boy.
The Sand Trap: Tons of content. TST is going to refocus on blogging and less on news reporting (no blogroll)
Bogey Lounge: awesome
EatGolf: awesome
Goeff Shackelford: some call him the best golf blogger out there. (no blogroll)
Jay Flemma: has some new stuff up his sleeve.
Golf Blogger: Rock solid. Lots of reviews and nuggets.
Robert Thompson: great golf blog and takes from up north…aye? What’s that all aboot?
The Golf Blog: The self proclaimed #1 golf blog. (no blogroll)
Yeah yeah I know some of you don’t want to do a blogroll and that’s fine… But the more links the better for all golf bloggers! Rather than thinking that the golf blog pie only has so many pieces to go around, lets just MAKE THE PIE BIGGER!
Ok enough already…. That got a little out of control. Please no whining if I didn’t mention you, or if you didn’t like my opinion. It IS just that….an opinion. That’s what blogging is all about eh?
Oh, If you’re a golf blog with recent activity and NOT in my blogroll then let me know so I can put your link up!
Happy Birthday America!
Everyone head over to the new blog: Golf Chick.
Kristen is one of the few rare female golf bloggers. She has just blogged about getting her SECOND ace!
Speaking of female golf bloggers, what is up with Musey these days?
My review list is getting longer and longer. The two latest editions to the list are the TaylorMade Monza Corza Putter and the Rescue Dual (pic).
Just look how pretty this Rescue Dual looks! I hit it once today into a heavy duty wind. Off the tee I hit a nice little draw (that’s what the dual weights are setup for) that bored it’s way through the wind to the 100 yard marker on a par 4. That allowed me to knock my 2nd shot close and make birdie. I was playing against a PGA Pro, a state AM champ and a high school golf coach who was scratch. Tough to be a 2 handicap and be the “hacker” in the group…
The rescue compliments my r7 Dual TP 3 wood, which is the best 3 wood I’ve ever hit.
I was never a “TaylorMade guy.” No particular reason for that other than I just never hit much of their gear. But that is changing quickly, very quickly.
Reports to follow.
Eat Golf’s one year Blogoversary!
Rich is one of those super guys you meet once in a while. Though we haven’t actually met in person, we’ve built up a good web/blog friendship and cross linked each other many times.
Rich has done some very cool things there like aggregating all the coolest golf forums and their current posts. Don’t know how he even did it, but that is way cool! He has many pictures of neat courses as well…tons of them. Rich is a true blogger in that he has a golf blogroll and regularly links to other golf blogs and articles.
Many golf blogs these days are a flash in the pan. They’re coming and going regularly. EatGolf has made it a year (which is like 100 human years).
So happy birthday EatGolf!
