Wet socks, dripping pants,
water running down the back of your neck inside your shirt, shoes making a weird
"squishing" sound when you walk, slippery grips, illegible scorecards,
embedded balls, short drives…
Yes, Spring has arrived.
While I refuse to play
golf in the rain, except if its one of the few tournaments I participate in each
year, I can fully understand why courses remain full on weekends, even when it's
miserable out there.

I used to tell golf
students not to panic if what I’m teaching them now doesn’t make perfect
sense because they’ll have a better understanding of it in the morning after a
good night’s sleep. Well, according to a new scientific study published in
"Science"magazine, what I was saying is correct.

Having arthritis in my
feet, I am constantly in pain to some degree or another, especially on golf
courses with lots of hills. I view 18-holes from the back tees at Chi Linh Star
in the same way a starving dog looks at peanut butter.
It's too tempting to
ignore, but I know I'll regret it later.

Heard the one about US
Vice President Dick Cheney coming into the clubhouse after a round of golf and a
friend asks, "What did you shoot today?" Cheney replies "my
caddie". Bada boom.
Like a lot of you, I've
been watching the Turin Olympics on TV and enjoyed some excellent performances,
as well as some spectacular crashes. Lets be honest here for a moment, most
people watch NASCAR racing for the same reason as they watch downhill skiing…where
else can you experience a spectacular crash and not be involved in the damn
thing?

I decided to check out Tam
Dao GC to see if any of the six balls I lost last time were somehow recovered,
also to see if my new swing changes worked and to say hello to Dayne Bulloch who
I haven’t seen since he was at Song Be.
I am happy to report that
I’m hitting the ball longer and straighter than ever, but I still putt like
Helen Keller.
