Review: Poker Ace Portable Tournament Director

Do your run poker tournaments at home? Do you also play in these tournaments?

The Poker Ace Portable Tournament Director (PTD) will make [...]

Predictions for Tiger Woods in 2008

Tiger Woods has been dominating the PGA Tour since August of 2007. All of the sports coverage on TV and on the web is saying it will be a special year. I think we all can agree. Woods looks unstoppable. I’m willing to go out on a limb and make some predictions.
In 2008, I predict [...]

I'd Take Their Bad Shots

I’ve been watching the final round of the Target World Challenge since it came on the air at 3pm. If I look out the window I see 10 inches of fresh snow from last night and this morning. I think I know where I’d rather be…on the golf course.
While Tiger Woods isn’t exactly running away [...]

Attend a PGA Tour Event

“These guys are good.”
If you ever have the chance to go see professional golfers in a tournament, do it. Watching some of the shots these guys can pull of on TV is great, but nothing compares to seeing it in person.
You can watch the pros warm up on the driving range and putting green. You [...]

Tiger Woods Skipping 2007 Buick Open

I’m heading to the Buick Open this upcoming weekend, but I won’t be seeing Tiger Woods. There will likely be some cardboard cutout and poster sitings, but none of the real deal. It’s disappointing to know he won’t be playing, but I can’t say I blame him for skipping out on a tournament a week [...]

Tiger Woods Playing 2007 Buick Open

I’ve been to the Buick Open probably 4 or 5 times, but missed the last couple of years because the dates conflicted with a festival in my hometown. This year the Buick Open was moved up to the end of June and I bought tickets over 4 months ago. It’s always a great time and [...]

Too Hot For Me, Wie Too

While golfing 45 holes over the course of Saturday and Sunday, I came to one conclusion. Over 90 degrees with over 50% humidity is very hot on the golf course. I managed to get through it without too much of a problem, but I’d much rather have temperatures in the low 70s. Looks like Michelle [...]
