U.S. OPEN TV Schedule – DVR Alert

Set your DVR before you head out to work or to golf Thursday! The U.S. Open is finally upon us. Let the carnage begin.

This Open is going to be very interesting. Tiger has won twice this year yes, but I’m curious to see if he will make the cut. I’m still not sure what swing or game he will bring. Same goes with Rory McIlory. He seems to have lost his mojo a bit, perhaps due to the underwear issue.

My Pick

People are asking who my pick is. Here you go: Jason Dufner.

Thanks to my pops who did some recon for me on his latest trip to our homeland, Greece. Down in southern Greece he found a resort called Costa Navarino which has two 18 hole courses, the Dunes Course and the Bay Course. He was kind enough to pull out his Nikon and get some pictures of the resort for HOG.

The Dunes course was designed by Bernhard Langer and the Bay Course was designed by my buddy Robert Trent Jones, Jr. (more…)

Review: Ashworth Cardiff Casual Golf Shoes

Written by: Tony Korologos | Monday, June 11th, 2012

Street casual golf shoes are the rage. I knew comfort wasn’t in question but I’ve wondered if this type of golf shoe could provide enough performance and stability in the golf swing for serious players. Now I know. Lets take a look at the 2012 Cardiffs and see what the buzz is all about, and if they can provide my spastic swing a solid base.
