What a week in the golf world, and Hittin' the Links is here to try and keep you informed. In addition, I have included a couple of links to some of the new equipment out this year so all you equipment people out there can start your spring shopping lists.
In this volume we take a hard look at what is left of John Daly after his week from Hell, see why Ernie Els is tired, and what the heck is Ian Poulter talking about? Also, we investigate my pick for the coolest new golf gadget, peruse a buyers guide for junior golf clubs, look at some golf vacation spots, and see if Tiger can win again. Read on!
