4-wheeling duo who wrecked GC of Houston arrested

Published

on

Good news in the “justice in the golf universe” department: The pair of four-wheeling teenage who tore up the Golf Club of Houston’s 16th green have been identified.

Brian Buckner, director of agronomy at the Shell Houston Open host course, recognized the pair as they inexplicably returned to the course to admire their handiwork in the days following their four-wheeling free-for-all.

Buckner’s eagle eye led to an off-duty police officer following the morons home and the arrival of the authorities. Aftermarket features on the quad left little doubt the duo was the same that did donuts on GC Houston’s 16th green.

Reportedly, the pair’s parents want to pay for the damage, but why not go one better: Make the teens work with grounds team, paying every penny back to the club to pay for the damage.

Thankfully, the crew at GC of Houston has already done some excellent work in repairing the affected green.

    Hopefully the vandals will be charged with the appropriate criminal statutes, prosecuted accordingly, and required perform a substantial (but just) amount of community service – maybe working under the golf course superintendent’s eye. The parents of the vandals should not be permitted to buy their children’s lack of accountability. This has nothing to do with the toxic/polarized political rhetoric that is being spewed. This has everything to do with entitled/spoiled people making horrible decisions that negatively impact civility.

      And I see you’re adding to that stupidism with your comment. You’re doing god’s work. Bravo.

      Those kids needs to be put to work on the course like the article states. Let them see just how much goes into maintaining that course and maybe, just maybe, it’ll get through their thick heads.

      It has nothing to do with “equality, marxism, leftism, stupidism” unless it is your own “stupidism” you are referring to and it was your kid.

What GolfWRXers are saying about Kevin Kisner’s new Callaway X Forged CB irons

Published

on

In our forums, our members have been discussing Kevin Kisner’s new Callaway X Forged CB irons which he has in the bag at this week’s CJ Cup. WRXers have been commenting on the switch and the clubs themselves in our forums.

For lots more photos, check out the full thread here.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

  • btyh: “Holy offset.”
  • Glf_LU: “These are interesting. Not going to make a rush to judgement until I see them in person. It does look like a little more offset than I would expect to see in this model.”
  • bcflyguy1: “Kisner is not one to make a lot of equipment changes (see the GBB driver he’s still using), so if these do have staying power in his bag that will be interesting to see. I have to wonder if there’s something different about his set, because like others have mentioned there appears to be more offset on his than I recall seeing in the samples I’ve had in hand.”

WATCH: PGA Tour players play hole blindfolded and it’s hilarious/amazing

Published

on

As part of a Srixon campaign, four PGA Tour players recently participated in a three-hole challenge, with each hole being a different game; hole No. 1 was blindfolded, hole No. 2 was costumes and distractions, and hole No. 3 was alternate shot with a baseball bat. The teams were Smylie Kaufman and Sam Ryder against Shane Lowry and Grayson Murray.

Watch the full video below, since it is quite entertaining (albeit not the type of golf that Old Tom Morris surely had in mind), but in particular, make sure to check out the first hole where Lowry and Ryder play a full hole completely blind folded. It’s amazing to watch how badly Ryder struggles, and how Lowry nearly makes par.

Cleveland-Srixon’s marketing department has been hard at work crafting these viral-esque ad campaigns; if you remember, former long-drive champion Jamie Sadlowski recently dressed as 80-year-old Grandpa Jamie to fool range-goers. That video has since gathered over 1.2 million views on YouTube.
