GOLF TIP OF THE WEEK Better Putting for Lower Scores
Sign your name on a piece of paper. See how quick and easy that was? Now try to slowly duplicate that signature. Not so easy. The reason is, you're thinking about it and not tapping into your subconscious, the way you did when you signed the first time. Putting is no different. The best putters see their target line and then roll the ball on that line, just like you saw the paper and then signed it. The lesson is, keep it natural, and don't let yourself get bogged down by anything.

GOLF JOKE OF THE WEEK
The last laugh
An argumentative drunk had been looking for a fight all afternoon in the country club bar after losing his match, finally threw a punch at the man next to him. The man ducked and the drunk, losing balance, fell off his stool on to the floor. By the time he’d dusted himself down and picked himself up, his opponent had departed.
“Not much of a fighter, was he?” he complained to the barman.
“Not much of a driver either, sir,” said the barman, gazing out of the window. “He just drove over your golf clubs.”
Keep it in the Middle
