More Golf Gift Ideas - All Under $50

Posted by Double Eagle in Uncategorized - 5 Comments

Some of you may have seen my letter to Santa earlier this week. I thought that was going to go directly to him, but apparently, in ended up on the internet thing and everyone saw it. I thought there was some kind of magic involved or something, but whatever.

Anyway, some of my previous suggested golf gift ideas for Christmas were pretty extravagant, so I wanted to do a separate list. This time, all the items are $50 [...]

Dear Santa: 8 Golf Gift Ideas for Christmas

Posted by Double Eagle in Uncategorized - 5 Comments

Dear Santa,

I’ve been pretty good this year. You haven’t come around in a while, not since I was a kid. I know you’re really busy so it’s OK. I thought I’d write anyway, just in case you can find the time this year.

I’m not worried about me so much but I thought I’d give you some Christmas gift ideas for the serious golfers on your list. I have some of these things already and some I’d really [...]

This Week

It’s funny how when things are going good, bad days really aren’t as bad as they are when things are going bad overall.

Posted by Double Eagle in Uncategorized - 6 Comments

This is more directed at those from the United States, its territories, and Mexico, where the United States Golf Association is golf’s governing body.

It’s that time of year again, at least for me. I recently got my yearly membership benefits in the mail and it got me thinking about the topic.

So, are you a member?

I think it’s to our benefit to join this organization to help preserve and grow the game of golf. You might wonder, “Why should [...]

Happy Thanksgiving!

Posted by Double Eagle in Uncategorized - 2 Comments

This is one of my favorite holidays of the year. It’s a day to spend with family and friends, to be happy, and most of all, to forget about what we don’t have and to be thankful for what we do.

I know this is a uniquely U.S. holiday, but there’s no harm in everyone who’s reading this being a little thankful today. Give thanks to anyone or anything you feel should have it, or just be thankful for [...]

  • Triple-X: Jim McLean Updates His X-Factor Concept
  • You may recall me mentioning the X-Factor concept on occasion.

    McLean first described it in 1992. Basically, the theory is that power is generated in the golf swing, not based on the amount of shoulder and hip turn, but by the difference between the two.

    In the January 2008 issue of Golf Digest (p. 66-73), McLean updates the concept again, with more research resulting from analysis of 15,000 students from his golf schools as well as analysis of a number of [...]
