Still cold and uninviting...


Picture taken about an hour ago. Would loved to have stayed out there and practiced some but the grounds were wet and snow covered and the wind made it feel like it was 25 degrees. Is enough enough, or what? Still looking for one of those nice winter days here in Loogootee, Indiana.

Lakeview Leagues


Better start thinking about the upcoming golf season and the leagues that will be forming out at Lakeview. Though we still have not broken the chains of winter, the warmer weather has to be just around the corner. Leagues, the Tuesday Men's League and the Senior League, open with registration and scrambles during the second week of April. The Community League opens once school is out during the last week in May. Start making plans now for the competition and camaraderie of Lakeview Golf Leagues.

Golf Fitness: Something To Ponder and The DO!

After several days of cold and ice, it's easy to jump at the opportunity to rush to the golf course with a turn in the weather. But hold on, not so fast, Jack! Think of what you have been doing; more to the point, think of what you have not been doing. Like using those golfing muscles. So, before you come down with pulls and tears and aches and pains, take some time to think about your golf fitness. And to help us do that, this little reminder from about.com on some exercising you can do right there in your own living room. Or out in the garage or down in the workshop if loving spouse (it is Valentin's Day!) prefers that.

The exercises: Backswing with a dumbbell; and lunge with a club twisting. Go take a look and get yourself ready for the much warmer weather just down the road a piece.

John Daly's Swing Routine

Pretty good check list from John Daly on shot routine from espn.com. I don't remember ever seeing the '90 degree line between chin and forehead' check. And have you ever noticed that the Big Boys and Girls do not take a full swing as part of their pre shot routine? I mentioned that to Eric once as we were playing a round of golf and he commented that people like us don't average three hundred swings a day in practice either... Good point by the young man.
