The Par 3 12th Hole On The Challenge At Manele Bay On The Island Of Lana’i Presents Just That…A Challenge – Photo Credit Bryan Outram Well, 2009 finally came to a close. And while I don’t regret its passing, the year did give me some memories that will never fail to bring a smile to my face when they weasel …

Back in 2004, I was introduced to my first true links course at a Muscular Dystrophy charity tournament – the Links at Boundary Bay. As a fairly new golfer used to the tree lined cathedral called UBC and bridal gardens of a Mayfair Lakes, I was a little taken aback by the stark barren landscape that faced me. I distinctly …

There’s a popular phrase, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. That’s how I approach birthdays. At our age we don’t “need” anything.

But that’s not all.  He is also using this opportunity to work with his sponsor, TheTurnTee, to help raise funds for TerryFox Foundation Cancer Research through …

It never ceases to amaze me the generosity of golfers. Did you know that golf raises more money for charity than all other sports combined?  In January the PGA announced it had surpassed $2 billion in charitable giving – $1 billion of which was raised in just the past 8 years. But giving back through golf isn’t reserved for famous …

Guest post by: Emily Sutherland It seems like there are quizzes popping up left, right and centre these days but I don’t mind admitting that I’m partial to the occasional lunchtime quiz. I noticed a new one recently that piqued my interest more than usual – What Type of Golfer Are You? I’m sure anyone who has spent a few …
