Travel Day

This is an automated post. This article automatically posting on Wednesday the 24th while I’m traveling 2311 miles from my home to Orlando, Florida. Destination: The 2007 PGA Merchandise show.

This Thursday-Saturday Hooked On Golf Blog will be the hot location for numerous daily updates from the show. I’ll be covering all the hot new equipment via blog posts, tons of photographs and even video clips! Tune in here for pictures and video of the new trapezoid drivers and laser golf hat alignment systems. I have some great connections and there should be some great “scoops” coming your way. It’s going to be a media barrage! I’m planning on doing several posts per day during the show so tune in regularly starting Thursday!

Blogger VS Blogger a.k.a. HOG vs Point1Golf

Saturday afternoon I’ll be hooking up with my pal Tom Gov from Point1Golf for a friendly match in the HOG golf series “Blogger vs. Blogger.” A report will follow.
