Photo Gallery – Deutsche Bank Red Sox Legends Pro-Am Day

For all of us New England golf nuts the Deutsche Bank Championship is long awaited and has become a Labor Day tradition in the area.   read more »


Arjun Atwal - All done with Monday Qualifiers

Yesterday Arjun Atwal became the first Indian-born player to ever win a tournament on the PGA Tour. He also became the first Monday qualifier to win a tournament in 24 years, when in 1986 Fred Wadworth won the Southern Open.   read more »


The 2010 PGA Championship - The Year of the "Bunker"

The 2010 PGA Championship will forever be remembered as "the year of the 'bunker'". In 10 years when people look back at this Championship, they won't remember that it was Martin Kaymer's first major (let alone first PGA win). They won't remember that Tiger came in 28th place, or Nick Watney's colos   read more »


Club review: Scratch Golf's 1018 Forged 56-degree wedge

It was a long time coming, but this past Friday I received my long awaited new sand wedge from Scratch Golf. Due to some supply issues overseas, my order (among with many others) were delayed quite a bit. But I stayed patient and the guys at Scratch were more than apologetic, as well as VERY respons   read more »


Course Review: Glen Ellen CC - Millis, MA

Glen Ellen Country Club, or "The Glen" as it is affectionately called by it's regulars, is located in Millis, MA about 30 minutes outside of Boston. Where I'm located in Massachusetts there aren't a lot of great public courses within a short drive. To play anything of good quality I need to drive 40   read more »


Course Review: The Shattuck - Jaffrey, NH

I normally wouldn't drive 2 hours to the middle of nowhere to go play golf on a weekday, but my buddy had a voucher for a free foursome at The Shattuck up in Jaffrey, NH. I had heard about The Shattuck for years, and in fact my college team played a tournament there (that I didn't play in), and hear   read more »


Q&A with Nationwide Tour Player Justin Peters (Pembroke, MA)

Earlier this year I interviewed Justin Peters before he had even tee'd it up in a Nationwide event this year. He was basically waiting for the reshuffle and his chance to play. Justin's journey to this point in his career has been a long one, but just like his ringtone "Don't stop believing", he has   read more »


Everybody Loves Bubba

Yesterday Bubba Watson took home his long awaited first victory on the PGA Tour. He's been close many times, but was yet to seal the deal. Watson took a lot of slack from the media and bloggers earlier in the year when he all but had the Bob Hope in his back pocked but made a questionable layup call   read more »


Teeing it up with The Jimmy Fund Golf Program

Ask any New Englander about The Jimmy Fund and they’ll most likely mention the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, and its connection to the Boston Red Sox and the Pan Mass Challenge. Often overlooked is the strong connection the Jimmy Fund has to the golfing community through its Jimmy Fund Golf Pr   read more »


Interview with Scratch Golf CEO - Ari Techner

If you're a golf club nut, chances are you've heard of Scratch Golf. They've been making the highest quality custom wedges and irons since 2003 and this past year made news with Ryan Moore becoming a part owner of the company, along with longtime club making legend Don White joining the Scratch fami   read more »


Getting back to par - Q&A with Ken Green

In June of 2009 Ken Green's life was turned upside down. While travelling to a Champions Tour event in his RV, the right front tire blew, causing the vehicle to veer down a steep embankment and hit a tree. The crash killed his brother, girlfriend, and precious dog, all who were travelling with Green   read more »


Is Tiger a changed man? I'll reserve judgement for a while longer

Earlier today Tiger Woods once again faced a room full of journalists, although in a much different setting than when he made his first public appearance back on February 19th. The main difference? He wasn't just reading a statement, but would field questions.   read more »


Q&A with Tour Rookie and Q-school medalist Troy Merritt

Troy Merritt has come a long way from his walk-on days at both Winona State (Div. II) and Boise State. While at Boise State Merritt collected nine wins over two years, including a record setting five straight in his senior year, where he led all of Div. I with a 69.53 scoring average. He took that m   read more »


Ken Green denied his major medical exemption by the Tour

Earlier this week Ken Green announced on his blog that the major medical exemption he'd applied for has finally been turned down by the Tour. "I’m disgusted with the Tour for their decision on this issue. I’m just numb right now." Green said. Making a bad week even worse,    read more »


Johnny Miller continues to sit on his high horse from the 18th tower

While watching NBC's coverage during the final round of the Transitions Championship I was again put off by a comment from our good friend Johnny Miller. I'm not sure if any of you caught this but it certainly stuck out to me and was completely uncalled for.   read more »


New Groove Rule - Much Ado About Nothing? Scores Say Yes

Much has been made about the new groove rule in effect this year. Just when the story seems to be dying down more fuel gets added to the fire (see Hunter Mahan's win last week). From discussing it with some players as well as reading the numerous articles that have been done on it, playing with the   read more »


Interview with Justin Peters - Inaugural Big Break Champion and Current Nationwide Tour Player

Some of you may recognize Justin Peters from the very first season of The Big Break challenge on The Golf Channel in 2003. Justin was the inaugural champion and ever since has been hard at work on his game to try and get to that next level. I actually first met Justin almost 18 years ago while playi   read more »


How can the TV networks make golf coverage more engaging?

I recently read an article by Frazier Moore (AP Television writer) about how golf television coverage can survive in Tiger's absence. He cited CBS News and Sports president Sean McManus saying "We’re all looking forward to him coming back, but until then we’re doing perfectly fine".   read more »


Interview with Golf Channel's Big Break champion Mike Perez

For fans of the Golf Channel's Big Break, Mike Perez needs no introduction. This was my first season really watching the show, and my first thought during the premiere was, "Who do you have to know to get on this show?" There was former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani's son (Andrew), famous soap o   read more »


Q&A with PGA Tour hopeful Matthew Lombardo

There are certainly no shortage of guys hoping to make their way on to the PGA Tour. But I believe few have as an interesting back story as Matthew Lombardo. I recently "met" Matthew through Twitter and was instantly intrigued with his background and journey thus far in the golf world.   read more »


Tom Watson is a 60 year old stud

Last July at the 2009 British Open, Tom Watson reminded us that age is just a number. He came within just one misjudged club selection of raising the Claret Jug. Watson was thinking about hitting a 9-iron from the middle of the fairway, but then settled on an 8-iron. The ball soared right   read more »


Ryder Cup Captain Pavin chooses his assistants

Yesterday Ryder Cup Captain, Cory Pavin, announced the selections for his assistant captains for the 2010 Ryder Cup. The Ryder Cup will be played October 1-3 in Wales. For the first time in a while, the U.S. team is the defending champion after beating Europe in 2008 at Valhalla.   read more »


Observations from the Farmers Insurance Open

While following the Farmers Insurance Open this past week and weekend I couldn't help but notice a few things I felt the need to point out.   read more »


Is Phil Mickelson Cheating?

It seems our good friend Phil, or as some are calling him this week, "The Tour Savior" is ruffling some feathers already after only being back for a total of 18 holes. Phil has decided to put in to play a Ping wedge that falls through the loophole of the new groove rule that was put in to effect thi   read more »


Catching up with PGA Tour Rookie Chris Wilson

Throughout the season I'll be checking in with PGA Tour rookie Chris Wilson as he gives us an inside look as to what tour life is like for a rookie. I first did an interview with Chris via Twitter about a month ago after he earned his card, and now that he has a couple of tournaments   read more »


Further Heartbreak for New England's Ken Green

Yesterday Ken Green announced on his blog that his youngest son, Hunter, had passed away in his dorm room at SMU. Apparently Hunter had actually died the week prior but Green’s ex-wife had kept the news from him until just yesterday. As a parent, I can’t imagine the anger and hurt h   read more »


A John Daly Reality Show Is What Golf Really Needs Right Now

I recently read a blog post basically stating that following around a has-been like John Daly, who isn’t the most perfect role model for the sport, is not what golf needs right now. I have to completely disagree with that blogger. I on the other hand think it’s exactly what golf nee   read more »


Olde Scotland Links (Bridgewater, MA)

Growing up in Bridgewater, MA I've had the opportunity to play Olde Scotland a number of times.  Olde Scotland is a well cared for municipal course where you can typically count on soft fairways, tricky pin placements, large undulating greens and lots of wind.   read more »
