I read something in Hogan's Five Lessons that made me chuckle, or roll my eyes. In writing about the grip, he mentioned a few modifications he made to the general advice he lays out in the book. He stresses that they are personal to him by saying, "That is, they were beneficial for me and I...

Get lessons.

Not a bit. You did right.

Wedges. I'm hitting nothing but wedges.

Canned tamales and cottage cheese.

Finding ways to get young people (grade schoolers) involved is one way. It for sure doesn't mean taking millions of dollars from Saudis.

My sand wedge. That's all I have hit for the past five weeks. I'm getting really good at controlling the clubhead through impact, which is what the game is all about.

Somethin' to do. If it went away forever I wouldn't miss it. And I had season tickets to Oregon Duck football games from 2001-2020.

The only days I remember are the ones when everything went right. It's good for athletes to have a selective memory.

Trying to hit it harder takes my out of my normal swing tempo and ruins everything. Also, easing off for me results in a sloppy swing. I take the longer club, grip down, and swing normally. But I do have a story ... The Men's Club had a three clubs and putter day. I picked a 2-hybrid, 7-iron...

Irons. I got my Hogan irons in 2003.

I hit 235 off the tee. I played from the appropriate tees. All par 4's are two-shotters, all par 5's are three shotters. I don't have to take extra shots to get to the green on any hole. I play the hole as it was designed. When I get shorter over time, I'll move up a set of tees and play the...

Being able to hit the ball off the ground when it is that far forward is beyond the athletic capabilities of many recreational golfers.

The golf swing is so easy once you have learned how to do it and have done it so often that good swings are just the simplest thing. But that is a unified feel that you have absorbed, which defies explanation to anyone, even yourself. All you can say is, I don't really know how I do it, I just...

Yes. The first thing I practice every time I go to the range, before I hit even one ball, is my aim.

Barbie. There. I said it. Also, Meet Joe Black.

Lots of fun. But did anybody think in Rory's company the others had anything of a chance? And the last pitch. 100 yards is not that far away. Only two of them, Rory and Rose, hit it at the pin. The other two were as far off as a 15-handicapper. BTW, it was great to see Lexi this close and...

I couldn't hit a tree on a bet unless I am trying not to hit one.

Watch the Kentucky Derby this year. You'll get lots of ideas.

This was in the 1950's. My Dad had a canvas Sunday bag in the basement with wooden-shafted clubs and a few old golf balls. They fascinated me. So he dug a few holes in the back lawn for me and put empty tuna cans in them so I could "play golf." When I was 9 he signed me up for a group lesson...
