Salt Lake Amateur Day One Recap – Respectable
My tee time today was 1pm. I liked that time because it gave me half a day to sleep in and drink coffee in the morning. These days with my non rock & roll body clock sleeping in meant about 7:30am though. I got to mill around, clean my clubs, mark my balls (so to

FT. WORTH, Texas Among the interesting equipment endorsement deals made this season was Callaway Golf's with Danny Lee , the 2008 U.S. Amateur champion. The 18-year-old won Australia the Johnnie Walker Classic in in February and competed in the Masters before becoming a professional. The only club not in the photo is Lee's putter, which is an Odyssey prototype. The bottom of the putter says, “Odyssey Prototype #1″ and it looked very similar to a Odyssey's Black Series i #1 putter. A lot of expectations are being put on the teenager who man-handled Pinehurst No. 2. Here is a list of his current equipment. DRIVER:
Adam Scott Goes Back to a 2-Iron at Colonial

Colonial Country Club's golf course is not especially long by PGA Tour standards, and in the sunny and wind conditions, the fairways tend to play firm and fast. So Adam Scott has decided to put a Titleist AP2 2-iron into his bag this week. Interestingly, the 2-iron actually has a True Temper X100 3-iron shaft to make it feel more for added stiffness and control. Stay in the know by following David Dusek on Twitter .

I officially give Sergio a pass, an apology and extend my best wishes. I feel your pain man. Let me buy you a beer.
Anyone who has read my blog with any regularity knows I’ve been, shall we say, “critical” of Sergio Garcia. The spit incident tarnished my respect for him long ago. Recently Sergio’s play hasn’t been great and the old me was there to ride that horse, predicting a poor performance in the Masters and making fun

John Daly’s suspension quietly expires
JD, Big John, Mr. Nicotine and Diet Coke, Hooters, Mullet… …is no longer suspended from the PGA Tour. He’s sporting wild clothes from Loudmouth Golf and has lost a few pounds to boot. Is this the new JD? I doubt it. JD has been playing fairly well on the European Tour. Perhaps he should stay over

Golfsmith acquired MacGregor
About a week ago MacGregor golf was bought by Golfsmith. I’ve got two sets of MacGregor irons, a MacGregor 3-wood and two Bobby Grace / MacGregor putters. Or is it three? Can’t even remember. Another “classic” line like Ben Hogan is absorbed and has become a shadow of what it used to be. It sounds like

Filed under Golf Equipment
FT. WORTH, Texas — For several years, Stewart Cink has used on a belly putter and been one of the most consistent putters on the PGA Tour. But this week at Colonial, Cink has switched to a traditional-length Nike prototype putter, which appears to be almost identical to the putter that Paul Casey uses .
