/ The Grateful Golfer / 18 Comments

The right golf ball for your game is very important. Over the years, I think I have tried them all to try and find that perfect ball for my game. As my game changed, the need for a different golf ball also changed.

Generally, I will read a book or two over the year that is recommended by one of my readers. I find that if they recommend a book, it should be worth reading. With the passing of the Christmas season, many of you received a book or two from “Elwin the Elf” and are ready to snuggle up under a blanket and read away! What would you do if you received 6 books for Christmas! Continue reading →
