This is how you play golf in Canada. Right off the ice. This is my friend last Saturday. Rather than take a stroke, he played it off of the ice and got his two putt bogey to finish the hole. If you look close you can see the ball roll up to the fringe by the guy in the brown coat.

Well, they aren't actually on the golf course but instead have made their home in the waterways in and around the course. They were dumped there after flooding a few years back and got caught when the water receded. I get to see the odd deer, turtle and drunk guy but nothing like sharks. I wonder how many shark courses you will see after this story goes big?

I have stayed out of the whole Tiger Woods thing but this Christmas Card gave me a laugh. Nice collection of babes.

If you are really bored then you can play the Tiger Woods Car Game. Get the real feeling of being a tiger behind the wheel.

I golf every week and never realized what a dangerous sport it coud be. I mean there are bears, snakes and shanked golf balls to worry about. I never thought about being robbed while playing though.

A man with a shotgun robbed a foursome as they were putting on a Fayette County golf course.

State police said the four men were on a green at the Linden Hall course in Tyrone when a man wearing a mask and holding a shotgun approached them from the woods around 4:50 p.m. yesterday.

He ordered the golfers to the ground and told them to empty their pockets. He pushed one of them, sparking a struggle in which the golfer was struck on both sides of the face with the gun. The victim then gave up his money clip with about $80.

Police said they later found the suspect, Cade Stevens, 25, of Dawson. He was in jail on $50,000 straight bond.

I am always looking at youtube videos or other online sources on how to make my golf game better. I found this great video yesterday which provided three great tips on how to cure a slice. The first drill in this video was the one that caught my eye.

Why do we slice a golf ball? For the most part it is an outside to inside golf swing that forces you to cut across the ball and put spin on it causing it to fly off to the right (for righties). This is my biggest problem. You can put the ball forward in your stance, back in your stance, stand closer and stand farther away but if you are coming across the ball you are going to slice.

Try this first drill, I went into the backyard last night and took a few swings that I thought were decent and sure enough I am coming across it and knocking that tee off. I am going to try it out on the range today.

Make the video full sized and pause the close up of the ball and between the tees for a better view of what he is doing.
