What became of the greatest workers of the early 20th century?
This relates to golf, I promise. 🙂 But here’s a little quiz for you…
In 1923, who was…
These men were considered some of the worlds most successful of their days.
Now, 80 years later, the history book asks us, if we know what ultimately became of them.
Vote for your favorite beer cart girl. Win, uhhh, nothing for yourself!
I’m a nearly married man who doesn’t drink, so I’m not sure what the buzz about hot beer cart girls is. If anything, they’re just an on-course distraction and a reason for a 10-minute delay every time they circle by in their short shorts, tight shirts, and cute little hats.
I’d much rather appreciate the beer cart girls (while enjoying a nice, cold glass of milk) off of the course! And now I can: BadGolfer.com is bringing us over 100 Beer Cart Girl photos. You won’t see these images many other places, though you may want to check out beercartgirl.com. Mia R is pictured at right in, of all things, a sand trap.
Almost makes me want to order a beer. Or eighteen.
Help Arnold Palmer and his army battle prostate cancer by scheduling a par-3 at your local course.
I’m quoting directly from Larry on this one.
Arnie’s Army Battles Prostate Cancer is a great cause and you can help! All you have to do is ask your local club pro to schedule a Par-3 shootout. All funds raised go to the Prostate Cancer Foundation. Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed non-skin cancer in America. Every 15 minutes a man dies from prostate cancer in the US.

We know of a few other golf blogs, and here they are!
We’re not the only golf blog out there. Below, we’ve listed some of the others. If you’ve got any additions, add a comment and let others know!
On September 25, 1974 Mike Austin drove a ball 515 yards.
30 years ago today, Mike Austin set the world record for a drive in PGA competition.
On September 25, 1974 at the US National Senior’s Open Championship at Winterwood Course in Las Vegas, PGA pro Mike Austin drove the par 4, 450-yard fifth and rolled the ball 65 yards past the flagstick: a 515 yard drive. Austin, 64 at the time, used a steel-shafted, persimmon-headed club. Now 94 and living in Studio City, California, Austin still gives lessons.
Just a funny sign about having your balls removed…
As Shaggy (the Scooby Doo guy) would say: Yoinks! This, uuhhh, frightening image courtesy of Larry at the NoThreePutts blog. His site is called “No Damn Three Putts: a golf blog with some balls.” Unless, of course, he’s caught by the owners of the course with this sign.
I’m playing golf with Larry later today (with a hurricane cancellation possible) at Abacoa Golf Club. We shall see.
P.S. I was quite tempted to post this in the “Equipment: Balls” category, but that’d just be mean… <grin>
