Club Campestre Llanogrande (Golf in Colombia)…
This weekend I took advantage of an opportunity to play in a tournament at Club Campestre in Llanogrande – about a one hour drive outside of Medellin. What a treat! The more I play other courses (I recently wrote about the two courses I played in Cali), the more I’m seeing that my club – […]
[HTB90] Conquering your “devil’s triangle”…
From the mailbag…Herbert Wilson says: The biggest challenge I face in breaking 90 has been 16, 17 and 18.

The SECRET formula of scratch golfers.. (+ an exercise to try)
A few months ago, I was in San Antonio filming all of the workouts and golf lessons for our Challenges (with Robert and Rich, more about this later and how I was dutch-ovened in my Jag going through an automated car wash)… As we were filming, we had a bird’s eye view of the driving range. One […]
