Golf (and Hornets) Can Make You Jump in a Lake

How about the cool and collected Pablo Larrazabal from the European Tour? Struggling to make the cut in the Malaysian Open, Pablo had to jump in a lake after being attacked and stung 20 times by a swarm of hornets.

After drying off and recovering a bit from the stings, he calmly hits a great approach shot and drains the birdie putt.

Well played Pablo.

I’ve finally processed a gallery of photos from the recent Hooked On Golf Blog World Tour stop in Scottsdale, Arizona. Part of that tour stop was a round at the famous Troon North Pinnacle Course, regarded by many as the #1 course in Arizona.

I’ll be posting a course review down the fairway a bit, but for now click the photo above or the following link to the Troon North Pinnace Course.


First Look: Kent Chase – Creating Young Masters DVD

Written by: Tony Korologos | Thursday, April 17th, 2014

In for review is a DVD called Creating Young Masters by junior golf instructor Kent Chase.  Here’s a paragraph about the DVD:

This series is a combination of documentary, learning, and insight to what it takes to be a great golfer. It is the confluence of teacher, student, and parent who embark on the journey to reach lofty goals such as winning championships, obtaining college scholarships, and qualifying for professional tour cards.

With all the talk of “growing golf,” getting youngsters involved and into the game is certainly a big part.

Stay tuned for my review of Creating Young Masters soon.

Muze Clothing – Big Hitter, The Lama

Here’s a fun golf apparel gig.  Scottsdale, Arizona based Muze Clothing makes fun hats and shirts for men, women, and even pregnant women.

On the golf end of things, Muze came out with a line of products inspired by golf’s greatest movie ever, Caddyshack.  The logos on the items look very similar to golf brand logos we recognize like Titleist, Cleveland, and Cobra, with enough of a twist that they may not be sued.

Big Hitter, The Lama…

Below is my white hat, which is a fitted hat and quite comfortable.

Cinderella Story…

Models/Styles/Colors

Muze’s hats are available with a few different logos and quotes.  The styles come in regular cap, low profile cap, bucket hat, and visors.  Colors include white, black, gray, red, orange, and blue.

Conclusion

As I mentioned, my hat is very comfy and should prove to be a gamer, especially in summer heat.  The logo is funny.  Regular golf pals don’t notice that it isn’t actually a Cleveland logo until a few holes into the round.

Well played Muze. Well played.
