Once in a blue moon I get to play a golf course that reminds me of why golf is such an amazing game. Two years ago, I was able to play Gearhart Golf Links, located in Gearhart, Oregon. Gearhart is an adorable little town that is just north of Seaside, an uber popular vacation spot…

Golf Fitness – The Journey To 100 – The Reboot – Week 4
Welcome back to another week of my journey to lose 100 pounds. Coming off of a very hard week 3, week 4 seemed to calm down a bit more. No emergency trips anywhere and a much more ‘normal’ schedule helped keep things on track. I began the week at 296.8 and had two small losses…
It’s Always A Good Time To Regrip
As the end of summer approaches, it’s always nice to get the clubs in shape for the lower-cost winter golf season. Besides polishing up the heads and getting any muck and grime off them, cleaning the grips, or maybe even replacing them is one of the cheapest things you can do to your older set…
Where To Spend The Last Of Your Budget
Happy “almost-end-of-season point” everyone! As we begin to close in on the final portion of the golfing season, it’s nice to look back and see where we made mistakes in our budgeting (or expectations), where we did really well and most of all, how can we get the most of what we have left in…

2018 Competition Season: Well, That Didn’t Go As Planned
On this cold, soon to be really stinking not, Monday morning, I’m forced to look back on the summer of 2018 and think, “What could have been?” This year started off with such promise, such expectation, yet it turned out to be just another summer of nothing going as planned. This weekend was probably the…
Golf Fitness: The Journey To 100–The Reboot-Week 2
Last Wednesday, I as a few days in to my Ketogenic Diet and managed to knock myself down to a crazy 306.4 pounds. This week, as predicted, things slowed a bit and currently I’m down 6 pounds to 300 even. I’m still finding that this works a bit strange. I mean, bacon and eggs for…
