		<title>&#8220;The Kiss That Caused My Slice&#8221; Book Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just finished reading &#8220;The Kiss That Caused My Slice&#8221; by John Ducker and found it to be a great golf book filled with collections of golf poems that captures the essence of all that is holy for us Duffers.  Filled with majestic photos of golf holes that one can only dream about playing, each poem [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tiger, Tiger, Tiger &#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Being a Phil Mickelson fan over the years I should be rejoicing at the difficulties that Tiger is facing and will face on the golf links if and when he comes out again.  But alas, I cannot rejoice at these revelations because it affects innocent people and children.  I don&#8217;t pretend to know anything about [...]]]></description>

		<title>Politics and Religion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In my humble opinion, there are two things that don&#8217;t belong on the links &#8211; Politics and Religion.  Nothing ruins a good round faster than deep rooted opinions being expressed, challenged, and/or ridiculed.  You&#8217;re never going to convince someone of anything within the confines of a fairway, green, golf cart, or at the 19th hole.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>The President&#8217;s Cup 2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m really juiced up about going to Harding Park Golf Course in San Francisco, California next month to watch the best United States golfers take on the best International golfers for the 8th President&#8217;s Cup.  I know it&#8217;s not the Ryder Cup but then who says that European golfers are any better than the rest [...]]]></description>

		<title>boxgroove.com &#8211; Where will you play today?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve all wanted, over the years, to have the opportunity to play exclusive private courses but usually only get that chance by playing some sort of charity tournament open to the public, playing as a guest with a member, or by being a member of another private country club.  Having been a member at one [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mulligans</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Any self respecting Duffer knows what a &#8220;mulligan&#8221; is &#8230; a &#8220;do-over&#8221; &#8211; hit a bad shot, take a mulligan and try again.  Course most of us do not choose to use mulligans unless we&#8217;re playing in a 4-man scramble and we paid good money for those mulligans.  After all, it&#8217;s usually for a good [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cow Pastures</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Cow pastures look good from a distance &#8211; green, flat, well groomed until you take a closer look.  That&#8217;s what some golf course are &#8230; nothing more than cow pastures!  Oh, most of us have played on these so called golf courses over the years but we won&#8217;t admit it to ourselves.  Usually we play [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s not the US Open &#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On the eve of the US Open it&#8217;s important for all of us to remember those words of wisdom that are often heard on the links &#8211; &#8221; &#8230; It&#8217;s not the US Open &#8230; &#8220;.  By that I mean that we Duffers should not take the game too seriously and enjoy ourselves out there, [...]]]></description>

		<title>4 Man Scramble</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No, a 4 man scramble is not an order at Denny&#8217;s for 4 orders of ham and eggs scrambled.  Although it sounds like a good idea right now.  Most of us know what a scramble is and enjoy playing them.  For those who don&#8217;t, here&#8217;s a brief definition:  In a scramble, each player tees off [...]]]></description>

		<title>Press the Bet!?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A while back we were having a friendly neighborhood game at Jack Tone Golf in Ripon CA.  There were 4 of us neighbors playing and it was decided to spice things up with a nassau on the front nine.  We made up two teams and used our index to even things.  My team was given [...]]]></description>
