Golf writer embraces corporationism while bloggers give great advice on putting, avoiding theft

So many golf bloggers having so much to say and I keep going on rants. I just feel wretched, so lets see what they’re saying.

Taking some time off from covering the burgeoning golf scene in Canadian cities like Whitehorse, Robert Thompson gives his readers the lowdown on what awards he can win and how you can vote for him, as well as offering some cutting, outside-the-box criticism of our own Managing Editor Mark Nessmith’s recent column decrying the PGA Tour-Golf Digest partnership.

“I personally think it will very much change the way Golf Digest offers cutting edge instructional articles on how to fix your slice and hole more putts,” cut-and-pasted Thompson from the prepared script.

He then even makes a comment about my own “realness.” For shame. I’m from the UK, dear, where unlike in parts of Canada, the majority of women aren’t imaginary.

Grouchy has a must-read blog about protecting your clubs from theft. With eBay, it seems, swiping and selling top-of-the-line clubs is becoming more in vogue, so take a look at the Grouchster’s advice.

The Undaunted Duffer has started to put together “The Duffers’ Anthology of Putting: How to putt well and make your friends cry.” He’s collecting as much info has he can on putting games and drills, which should be a boon for those of you with problem putters.
