GOLF TIP OF THE WEEK
To help in all sorts of ways, do this: Stop at the top of your backswing (Shaft straight up and down) and have someone check for you to see if the toe of your club is pointed toward your target. If not, fix it…If it is, way to go.

GOLF JOKE of THE WEEK
From Roger Cook: Four men were getting ready to tee off on the first hole when a gentleman walked up to the guy on the tee and handed him a card. It read “I am deaf and dumb. May I please play through?” The guy says, “Get out of here! Some people use any excuse to get ahead! Go away!” The deaf and dumb gentleman backed away and waited until the four guys were on their way down the fairway. The original four finally made it to the green, and it was the turn of the guy who yelled at the deaf and dumb gentleman to putt. He was lining it up, when suddenly ‘Whack’! He got nailed on the back of the head by a ball and knocked unconscious. When he woke up he was lying in a hospital bed, and the first person he saw was the deaf and dumb gentleman, holding up four fingers.
Keep it in the Middle !
