Writing about golf is a fun past time for me. Eclipsing 1,000,000 (yup 1 million) views this summer after almost 11 years of writing, I am thinking about what to do with my little golf blog. I am grateful for the 568,000+ visitors who deemed my musing worthy enough to stop by. But now it is time to do something more with my golf blog.
