This is fun. Last year around this same time FootJoy sent in several packages, each a small component in a new shoe design. Eventually I had enough parts to put together one shoe. That single shoe I sewed together myself with my mom’s antique Sears sewing machine didn’t work well on the course, but the pair of FootJoy DNA‘s I eventually received ended up being my gamer golf shoes ALL YEAR LONG. In fact, I’m still playing them. They helped me take second in the City Amateur, and to WIN my club championship in 2014. They will be tough shoes to bump out of gamer status, but I get the feeling there’s a new contender coming soon…
New FootJoy Shoe – January 2015
This year a similar set of boxes has been arriving and above is a teaser photo of two of the shoe’s components. Obviously the left part is the sole, with soft spikes and such. The other part with the wild looking mesh? We will find out what that is soon…
Golf media has really gone downhill. The major publications like Golf Digest and Golf Magazine have resorted to posting slutty pictures of the “hottest women in golf” and all sorts of lowest common denominator trash, just to generate viewers. Its not about golf, its about tits and ass, and getting the easy hits. Yes, the fix-your-slice articles and top-100 lists have taken a back seat to boobs.
FORE! Can I play through?
Golf marketing is not much better. Golf marketing companies, golf organizations, and major manufacturers come up with all sorts of stupid slogans and ways of bastardizing the game under the guise of “growing golf.” Their motivation is making money. They don’t care about ruining the game. They care about the bottom line, selling more drivers or keeping their organization afloat.
The last year or so has seen some really dumb slogans, ideas, and ways of bastardizing the game in the name of growing it, like Hack Golf, Foot Golf, Golf 2.0, Get Golf Ready. None of these things really work, they’re just this year’s buzz phrases, soon to be forgotten when the next buzz-phrase is coined at the next PGA Merchandise Show.
Boy I sure love golf. Don’t you?
Where am I going with this? The PGA Show is coming up and it is a new year. Soon we will be hearing the next buzz words and phrases. Here are a few of the worst golf marketing phrases and slogans for 2015, keeping boobs, ass, and dumb ways of “growing the game” in mind.
Foreplay
Like the play on words? Fore-play. Such genius! We have golf. We have sex. Both tied into a nice little pun. Perfect for the golf magazines, also known as tittie mags.
Get Boob Ready
With the massive amount of boobs posted by Golf Magazine, Golf Digest, and Trash9Network (also known as Back9Network), plus the “Get Golf Ready” initiative last year (or was it the year before?), how great is this?
Is this photo about golf or Paulina Gretzky’s boobs? You be the judge. GET BOOB READY!
Get Boob Ready! Pure class.
Boob Golf
Foot Golf is a dumb game where soccer players piss off golfers, kicking a soccer ball into a giant hole on the course and tearing up the greens with their spiked shoes. Forget Foot Golf. Boobs are so much more fun. This year’s initiative should be “Boob Golf.” Big breasted WAGS (“WAGS” is a term used by the golf magazines meaning “wives and girlfriends”) use their boobs to knock balls into holes. Boob Golf is a hole in one!
Foot Hack Grow Boobs 3.0
A combination of boobs, Foot Golf, and Golf 2.0 for 2015 is “Foot Hack Grow Boobs 3.0.” This is pure golf genius. The golf industry is saved!
WAGOLF
The popularity of “hot wives and girlfriends” of millionaire PGA Tour players seems to be singlehandedly keeping golf magazines and websites afloat. The hot wives and girlfriends are so popular, I think their male spouses should be benched and we should see them play Boob Golf, or Foreplay, or Foot Hack Gro Boobs, all of course in G-Strings, bikinis, and yoga pants. We could call it WAGOLF. Brilliant eh?
Time Fore 69
Golf Digest (or someone else, can’t really remember) came out with the “Time for Nine” buzz-phrase. Let’s sex that up a bit, add some hot tour wives and girlfriends, and call it “Time Fore 69.” Get it? In stead of “for” the word is “fore.” Simply brilliant!
We Are Boobs
The “WE ARE GOLF” slogan was announced as an industry initiative for “changing perceptions” and “overcoming biases.”
Trash9Network
What perceptions or biases are they talking about? Who cares. The We Are Boobs industry initiative is much better. After all, it’s not about golf, it’s about the boobs of hot tour wives, girlfriends, and any slut we can find and take a picture of with a driver in her hands!
Grow Boobs
The two most important subjects in golf media for 2014 were boobs and growing golf.
Why not combine the two? Grow Boobs! Splendid.
Incomplete List
This list explores just a fraction of the possible slogans for the golf world and golf media in 2015. Have your own ideas? Comment them in via the comments below or on any of the Hooked On Golf Blog social networks. Get creative! You might save golf.
In for review is the Air Force One N7 Nitrogen Charged Driver by PowerBilt. I’ll admit it is a bit of a hoaky name, but if it works it goes in the bag!
Now please pray the snow melts so I can get started reviewing this baby!
Check out the PowerBilt Air Force One N7 photos.
Golf Magazine is changing its name to BOOB Magazine.
We’ve seen this change coming. We’ve seen the transformation happening right before our eyes as Golf Magazine has been posting gallery after gallery of Instagram feeds and photos of hot women in golf. “Hot tour wives and girlfriends” articles… “hottest women in golf” articles…. They don’t even have to be golfers, as long as they’re holding a golf club, or simply have big boobs and live in the same city as a golf course.
Hooked On Golf Blog inside sources, under condition of anonymity, have sent in the new cover for BOOB Magazine, which will hit the shelves in time for the 2015 Masters this April, even featuring a hot G-string spread with Martha Burk.

Opinion
Honestly it is about time Golf Magazine came clean with their “golf journalism” turned Red Light District. I’m happy to see the rebranding/renaming, and look forward to honest tits and ass journalisn, not under the auspices of “golf” but for what it really is, posting BOOOBS for hits.
Well played Boobs Magazine. Well played.
Pass the milk…
Hidden Valley Country Club Lakes Course – Par-3 6th
Dual meaning title. It could mean I’m positively anticipating 2015, or that I’m taking a look ahead at 2015. I suppose this post is a little bit of both.
Coming into 2014 I did a similar post. Some of the ideas and goals I had for 2014 I did manage to achieve and implement. Some I either forgot or consciously ignored. Without getting too nitpicky about it, one of the primary things I plan to do in 2015 is continue to produce original, informative and entertaining content which I find interesting. I’ll leave most of the PGA Tour news and “what’s in this week’s winner’s bag” nonsense to those who have shown their superior abilities to regurgitate the same useless drivel week after week.
Now that this golf blog has been around for over 10 years, there’s not much I haven’t seen or written about in the world of golf. Whatever I post about will be unfiltered, opinionated, unbleeped, and I will not bite my tongue. I will write when I feel like writing, and not post useless drivel to fill up space or keep up a “schedule.” In my mind the absence of bad is good.
That’s the plan. Much of my motivation comes from playing the game. I’m hoping for the snow to melt to help that motivation out a wee bit.
