Yes, its on again. Ive joined fellow Mo-bro’s again to grow the Mo for Movember. Its all about promoting awareness and raising money for Prostate Cancer research and Male depression. From tommorow, the upper lip will be left unshaved for the entire month. Last years effort was pretty lame so not expecting much!

For a long time, golf has allowed the truly dedicated, crazed and cashed up (myself included) to outfit themselves with ridiculously overpriced and overspecced equipment that will not improve the game but looks good and makes others go “Oooooooh”.

Sam and I headed to the driving range last weekend. Loaded a video from my phone onto youtube.com (how very Web 2.0 of me!) and here is Sam in action. OK, so the orientation is askew but lean to the right and you’ll be fine. I will fix this soon!
