Some of my favorite Houston golf holes
This is a slightly revised version of some of my Houston golf holes that I posed awhile back. A good way to start a sunny Sunday Texas morning.
Magical Golf
Another segment in our continuing series of innovative commercials – the magical European Golf Tour.
Top Ten PGA Tour Shots of the Year
Number 4 should be number 2, and a couple of the shots are questionable to be in a top ten list. But an entertaining group nonetheless. Enjoy.
You putt for dough . . .
Rory McIlroy won the Euro Tour’s final event of the season in Dubai last weekend, but Justin Rose had the best putt of the tournament (and maybe the year) on the final hole. Enjoy.
Dan Jenkins enters the World Golf Hall of Fame
Clear Thinkers favorite Dan Jenkins was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame last night in St. Augustine, Florida. Here is the video of the pre-induction interview with Jenkins and a Geoff Shackelford video of the exhibit case of Jenkins memorabilia in the Hall of Fame.

The best local swing not in the Shell Houston Open
The best golf swing in Houston not playing in this week’s Shell Houston Open belongs to longtime Houstonian Steve Elkington, one of the owners of the interesting golf website, Secret in the Dirt. I haven’t heard why Elk isn’t playing this week, which would have been his 25th Houston Open (I do know he was injured earlier in the season). But it’s Houston golf fans’ loss that we won’t be able to watch this syrupy smooth swing in action this week. Enjoy.
