Mistake Free Golf – First Aid for Your Golfing Brain is a book by Robert K. Winters which is on my massive read list.
While I don’t think mistake free golf is possible, I’ll still check it out. Perhaps he’s referring to mental mistakes. I make many of those in the course of a round of golf.
I’m a very religious person and I pray several times per week. I religiously play golf every Sunday. I pray over three-foot par putts to win a $2.00 nassau.
Given my religious dedication, I might relate to the golf book “Church of Golf – A Novel About Second Chances” by Spencer Stephens.
I always thought the “foot wedge” was a fictitious club. You know, when a player kicks his golf ball away from the base of the tree when nobody is looking? That’s what I thought it was. But a friend on my Google Plus posted this photo, proving that the foot wedge is actually a real club.
Unfortunately the person who posted this photo can’t tell me where it came from. I’d really like to find this company and get the foot wedge in my hands for some real product testing. If any of you HOG patrons know who makes this club, let me know.
As bad as my short game is, I’d try anything. This may be the magic club.
Did you know that Volvik, the #1 maker of colored golf balls, actually makes a white ball? I didn’t until I found two dozen waiting on my front porch yesterday.
Volvik’s S3 “White Color” (yes they need help with the Korean to English thing) golf ball is a high performance, 3-layer ball with a urethane cover. In other words, a ball which on a basic materials and construction standpoint should compete with most “tour” balls on the market.
I’ll be putting this ball into play as soon as I can, but that may be a while. Winter has arrived here in northern Utah and most courses, if open, are frozen.
I don’t often review or feature golf equipment which is not legal by USGA or R&A rules for stipulated or tournament play. I’m making an exception this time for Trust Tee because the person who reached out to me has been politely persistent, and is Greek.
Trust-Tee is a golf tee designed to increase yardage and reduce slices and hooks through its (illegal) cambered design. Notice in the photo that the top of the tee is slanted. Trust Tee claims to decrease slices and hooks by as much as 15 yards.
I neither hook nor slice it, so I wonder if I could use the tee to create a hook or slice?!?! That said, I do have some golf pals who slice badly. I will get this tee in their hands and see if it really works.
There’s your first look at this unique golf tee. Due to the 4-5 month frost delay caused by winter here in northern Utah, I may not be able to test and review this product until I go south to warmer weather, or until the weather here improves.
