With the recent outbreak of news related to the legalization of marijuana in CA, and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger comments about starting a debate, I bring you the following:
So, my good friend Joe has been having some problems with his swing lately. As such, I've decided he
needs a little help
I personally like the way this pro teaches. Here's a little info on him:

Lesson #1
Ball set up - here's a good lesson on setting up to the ball. It got rid of my slice...
Joe, with your new driver, the technology has apparently changed and you don't tee your ball up as you
used to. The following video deals with the new drivers like you recently bought:
And finally, lets talk about momentum. You've got this weird little delay / hitch at the top of your swing. You do
that because you've seen some pros doing it. What you're doing is screwing up your momentum. Watch this
video to see what I mean:
In summary, your swing, especially off the tee box, is all jacked up. Try some of the above to see
if you can fix it, as frankly you're taking over my position in the golf rankings and you don't want that!
LOL. Like millions of others, I watched the Super Bowl yesterday after
a morning round of golf. It was probably the first one I've watched in 5
years or so, as I haven't been much of a football fan since the days of
Joe Montana and the 49ers.
Overall, I thought it was a good game and was amazed at some of the
plays/catches. The huge number of penalites made it a drag though,
and some of them looked questionable to me. Whether or not they
made a difference in the outcome is debatable.
The half time show was pretty good, although Bruce Springstein was looking a tad old. Thought it was
Englebert Humperdink up there for a second. The Boss rocked the crowd though and it looked like it
would be fun to be there. The commercials were ok....maybe if I had 3D glasses I would have appreciated
a couple more of them.
Anyways, the whole point of this post is while eating lunch today I ran across this blog/video. Apparently
cable fans in Arizona got a little more than they planned while watching the game.... a 30 second splice from
a porn movie made it's way onto the TV just after the Cards scored a touchdown :) Go to TMZ.com to check it
out, or click on this link for the blog: CLICK HERE.
To save you a trip, the video of the broadcast is below with the bad parts cut out:
Ok, I've been slacking on the OobGolf Virtual Tournaments lately. Below you'll find the
current rankings and stats for the Jan-Mar Tournament. I'll put them in the appropriate
place on the website when I get time along with the individual stats. Basically here is
how the tournament works:
1. Best 3 NET scores adjusted for the par of the course (adjustment based on 72
par course)
2. Bonus points of -1 for any score having putts below 36
3. Bonus points of -1 for any score having FIR above 50%
4. Bonus points of -1 for any score having GIR above 50%
5. Must have 3 rounds posted by end of March 2009
6. Must track putts, FIR, GIR to get bonus.
7. Must track putts to have a qualifying score as putts are used for tiebreaker
8. Tiebreaker #1 - lowest number of putts
9. Tiebreaker #2 - lowest number of 3 putts
10. Have fun!
