Thinking of my best golf buddy Arnie on his birthday – RIP

Every year on this day I would call or send a message to my best golf buddy Arnie, wishing him a happy birthday. In my message I would say there are three great golfers who share this day as their birthday: Old Tom Morris, Phil Mickelson, and James (Arnie) Arnold.

At the time I didn’t know it, but last year’s birthday message would be the last one. Sadly, my buddy Arnie died from leukemia on July 25, 2020.

I miss my golf buddy and friend greatly. With Arnie gone, I have not had the desire to play golf.

Jim (Arnie) Arnold’s tree planting and reception/celebration of life

Unfortunately because of COVID, there was no funeral and no way to pay last respects. Now that we are moving past COVID, there’s a celebration of life for Arnie coming up in September. Anyone who wants to participate in some tree planting in his honor, let me know your email and I’ll get you on the RSVP list. Details are below:

Saturday, September 11
Tree Planting 1:30 in Sugarhouse Park
Reception to follow—probably around 3:00—at Canyon Rim Park, 3100 South Grace Street (2900 East) in Salt Lake

First Look: Feetures Golf Socks

In for review are some new golf socks from the company “Feetures.”

Feetures socks “feature” targeted compression in specific zones for proper support, performance and comfort during sports activities, like golf.

Each sock, meaning right versus left, is anatomically designed to the structure of the foot. This provides enhanced performance and fit, and reduces risk of blisters.

The toe on Feetures socks is seamless. Seams on the toes can be super annoying and can cause discomfort and blisters.

Features socks have a lifetime guarantee. If at some point the wearer becomes unsatisfied with a pair of socks, Feetures will replace them.

I’m looking forward to running these socks through a full review. Stay tuned.

Devereux | DVRX is one of HOG’s favorite apparel brands. Proper threads. I’ve reviewed a few of their offerings, and I’m stoked to announce I just got in some Gravity golf shorts to review. Tough gig. I’ll do my best.

Back view:

I will be evaluating these fine looking shorts on and off the course and posting my full review soon. Stay tuned.
