51.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Far too many men play from tees too far back for their ability, and then they play too slow.<\/p>\n

53.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 According to most, \u201cTen yards of distance is better than five shots off your score.\u201d\u00a0 What about the short game fellow golfers?<\/p>\n
54.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 From my 18 years experience as a \u201cGolf Expert Witness\u201d regarding litigation often involving accidents, very smart and accomplished people can go \u201cbrain-dead\u201d once they step foot on a golf course or practice area.<\/p>\n
55.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Just as it is hard to find a person who doesn\u2019t think they don\u2019t have an above average sense of humor, it is just as challenging to find a golf instructor who doesn\u2019t regard themselves as above average.<\/p>\n

57.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The little known Radar Golf Ball was the single best golf invention I\u2019ve ever experienced, and one that the golf ball powers have apparently managed to squash.\u00a0 The second best is Sun Mountain\u2019s Club Glider golf travel bag that effortlessly glides through airports.<\/p>\n
