Visit Pinehurst Golf Academy 

We are having an absolutely spectacular February here in Pinehurst and one for the books as far as the weather goes. I follow Pinehurst Resort and Golf Club because they have a lot happening throughout the year to talk about. I just had to share this post for their golf academy as it made me laugh and we can all use a good laugh from time to time…happy golfing from this average golfer!

New PGA Rule About Ball Movement on Green

The PGA set a new rule in place this January regarding ball movement on the green. In certain cases, it is no longer a penalty if your ball was accidentally moved. Here is an article that explains this rule change. Happy golfing from this average golfer!

The 40 Yard Pitch Shot

This average golfer is always looking for ways to improve his game when he isn’t out on the links. We all face that “in between” 40 yard pitch shot at some time during our round of golf. Here is a nice video from the Golf Channel that will help your confidence in making that shot. The weather here in Pinehurst is great and I will be writing about some of our many courses we have here as the winter golf season gets into full swing. Happy golfing from this average golfer!
