I just got back from Helsinki, where the golf season is even shorter than it is in New England. While I was away, The New Yorker‘s website ran a piece of mine about Marion Hollins, which you can read here. And you can watch silent footage of Hollins swinging a golf club at Pebble Beach in 1926 here, in a clip sent to me by Chris Buie.

  1. Howdy! This is kind of off topic but I need some help from an established blog.
    Is it difficult to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I
    can figure things out pretty fast. I’m thinking about
    setting up my own but I’m not sure where
    to start. Do you have any tips or suggestions?
    Cheers

  6. Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it
    to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her
    ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched
    her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I
    had to tell someone!

  12. I never would have thought that breast massage in New Jersey could offer such a deep and meaningful connection to life, but reading this post has truly opened my eyes. David Owen’s perspective on the importance of relaxation and self-care in regards to golf (and life in general) is truly inspiring. I can see now how something as simple as a massage can have such a profound impact on our overall well-being. Thank you for sharing this unique perspective on My Usual Game.
