Mike at Perform Better Golf has an extremely touching blog about the joys of golfing with his 10-year-old son. It appears a new golf nut has been born in young Trent, and he and his father are having a fantastic time with their weekly rounds. Mike also got to see his alma matter, Oregon State, win the College Baseball World Series, so he’s on a good run! The Forward Tees takes a look at the international flavor of the PGA and LPGA money lists. “The PGA did not die off because the Australians and South Americans “invaded” their tour. I don’t see ...

There are some new arrivals to the golf blogging world, as well as some grouchy old-timers who still have something to say (and scores to improve). Clive Agran is a Brit after my own heart, and his blog at WorldGolf.com gives a great perspective from over the pond. And it appears he has already gotten the attention of some American readers. Grouchy is enjoying Phil Mickelson’s humiliating finish at the U.S. Open. He’s gone as far as bring back the FIGJAM nickname. Finally, Golf Nomad has been buying and selling golf equipment, which will hopefully straighten things out for him after a disturbing ...

Texas Golf reports that amateur golfer, Taylor Leon, won the U.S. Women’s Open sectional qualifier at TPC at Craig Ranch. Her 141 earns her a spot on the U.S. Women’s Open. Nice to see some Texan talent coming through. Meanwhile in Wales, Golf Punk tells us that the golf clubs in this neck of the woods have been a little slow to catch on to the internet revolution. The Welsh government is now encouraging the clubs to get online and reap the rewards of the Ryder Cup in 2010. Another candidate for the great Father’s Day gift idea. Hooked on golf may ...

The media has made a big deal out of the rivalry of Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods, but the Golf Blogger thinks there is nothing to it. If both play well this year it would make one dandy pairing.

We all know what it’s like when we damage some golf gear. I have snapped several clubs trying to play the unplayable ball next to a tree. The Golf Nomad tells us of a recent near “heart attack” when his young son got access to his favorite putter. Blimey! Golf Punk has found an article that reads about membership fees of $650,000 at one course. I think those fellas must have flags made of gold and greens lined with diamonds. My local driving range is unfortunately fitted with those plastic golf mats. I have tried to practice on them but don’t get ...
