Today was designed to be my most “relaxing” day of this trip because I knew the first half and last half of the vacation would be pretty hardcore with a lot of golf and driving. Today, I had only one round of golf in mind and I was happy to stick with my plan as... Continue Reading →
Getting Caught Up, Part 2: The Cogs that Keep Chicago Golf Running Strong
Tuesday morning, I got up super early after just a few hours of sleep. I headed up to Cog Hill Country Club with a plan of playing 36 holes at this famed golf establishment.

With its unique association with the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, I had all sorts of clever puns to use in the headline for the first post of this trip. The one I... Continue Reading →
Birthday Bonanza!
I’ll start this post by stating that I’ve never played three rounds of golf in the same day. I’m not sure I ever will again, but it’s what happened Tuesday on my birthday. Perhaps I just wanted to feel “young” again or perhaps I just cannot refuse free golf (especially on courses I haven’t played).... Continue Reading →
