Unimpressed by recent golf news, it appears, golf bloggers are hitting the links themselves lately. First of all, a hallowed streak has ended. The Armchair Golfer finally got out of the chair and on to the course after 169 days. And then he shot an 86. So, perhaps the real trick of this game is to play every six months or so only. Greg at New 2 Golf makes his way to this blog, and it seems he’s quickly getting the hang of things as he writes about how he recently shattered the 100-mark with a sizzling 94.

Looking to get a new Noodle? Well, the Golf Blogger is taking a look at MaxFli’s new Noodle balls.

The golf bloggers of the world, apparently stunned by John Daly’s unsettling missed putt, have taken to the course themselves recently. First, I feel it’s time to throw down the gauntlet to Golfchick. While we want to congratulate her new low score of 86 (after finishing par, birdie, par, bogey, bogey, par, bogey), we also want to let her know that, in light of her becoming a better and better golfer, the next congrats she receives from this blog will be when she breaks 80. That should be all the incentive you need, Chick! Rich is talking about his new driver over ...
