New 2 Golf: March 2006
http://new2golf.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
My thoughts about getting hooked on golf - Learning the game - Getting the kids involved - Local course reviews. Wednesday, March 29, 2006. Green Tees at Green Caye. As mentioned in a previous post. And in light of GolfChick's latest blog entry. I'm going to post a previously unpublished entry. I had intended to publish this entry, but with golfing nearly every night, I've had little time to blog and this entry was left unpublished because I had signed up for my first tournament. I have a yardage book I'...

New 2 Golf: January 2006

My thoughts about getting hooked on golf - Learning the game - Getting the kids involved - Local course reviews. Monday, January 30, 2006. Practice Round at Bayou GC. I made it down for a round at Bayou on Sunday. My focus was my new wedges. Again, with little exception, I tried to fly the ball on to the green to take advantage of the high trajectory of the 60* wedge and to get a feel for how much roll to expect. Joining Bayou Golf Association. Should I expect to get them back? Am I asking too much?

New 2 Golf: October 2005

My thoughts about getting hooked on golf - Learning the game - Getting the kids involved - Local course reviews. Monday, October 31, 2005. Random Thoughts and the Weekend Report. License in a Crackerjack Box. I played on Sunday and we rented a cart. Care to guess who drove? It's certainly not hard to drive a golf cart (see my first post. I've read that the PGA is struggling with the TV networks with dwindling viewer ship. I tell you this could be the answer. The Battle at The Battleground. Maybe I should...

New 2 Golf: June 2006

My thoughts about getting hooked on golf - Learning the game - Getting the kids involved - Local course reviews. Monday, June 19, 2006. The rain in Houston. I was supposed to spend Father's Day on the course, but stalled low pressure system foiled those plans. As I write this (Monday afternoon), the rain continues to fall. We've had so much rain CNN is covering it. Posted by Greg @ 6/19/2006. Monday, June 12, 2006. The Last Two Weeks (Part Two). So, continuing on from last post that saw my world crumblin...

New 2 Golf: May 2006
http://new2golf.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
My thoughts about getting hooked on golf - Learning the game - Getting the kids involved - Local course reviews. Monday, May 22, 2006. This post might be out of order - note the date 5/22 (I noticed I forgot to publish it while I was cleaning out old drafts). I wrote this before the bronchitis/hernia thing, but this was really the primer of my minor health problems. Seems I have not played golf with an injury free body in a few months. Roller Skating is NOT like riding a Bike. Fairways hit. 9. I would no...

New 2 Golf: November 2005

My thoughts about getting hooked on golf - Learning the game - Getting the kids involved - Local course reviews. Tuesday, November 29, 2005. Next I hit a few with my hybrid which continues to be long, but lacking in directional control. I hit some straight, but many fade, slice, hook, or draw. I think the key with that club is to ease off the power a bit. As I neared the bottom of the bucket, I packed up and moved over to the chipping area. I paced off three stations at 30, 40, and 50 yards. I pl...Why i...

New 2 Golf: July 2006

My thoughts about getting hooked on golf - Learning the game - Getting the kids involved - Local course reviews. Monday, July 31, 2006. New Putter - Daddy Likey. Three loops at Green Caye last night:. 4 pars (2 up&down). 2 doubles (1 OB). 3 GIRS (1 3-putt). 4 pars (1 up&down). 5 GIRs (1 3-putt). 3 pars (3 up&down). 1 double (1 water). This week we'll be getting ready for the trip north. I'm hoping I'll be able to get a few more loops in. Hmmmm would it be a good idea to slip the putter into a suitcase?

New 2 Golf: December 2005
http://new2golf.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
My thoughts about getting hooked on golf - Learning the game - Getting the kids involved - Local course reviews. Friday, December 16, 2005. Backslide at The Battleground. Forget the foreshadowing, I need to get this out. I shot 106 yesterday. I was all set to best my record (98) after firing a 48 on the front in wet, windy, cart path only conditions. And then I fell apart. After the round I decided to hit a few balls on the range. After a few shot (shags) I realized that I was not keeping my head dow...

New 2 Golf: February 2006
http://new2golf.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
My thoughts about getting hooked on golf - Learning the game - Getting the kids involved - Local course reviews. Tuesday, February 28, 2006. Two loops of the 9-hole par three course last night. I shot 33 on the first loop, hit ZERO greens, but managed three Up and Downs. The rest were bogeys. On the second loop I shot 37, hit two greens and made only one Up and Down. The pin placements were about as tough as I've seen them since there was a tournament there recently. The other shot was from a similar loc...
