dBrush-Golf -- handiest little tool for cleaning grooves
Don't be fooled by the size of this little brush. It's the handiest, most useful piece of equipment to clean clubs I've ever used. Delane Woods, inventor of dBrush and owner of Brush-Golf, challenged me to "use it for just one round, you'll love it" when I met her at the Orlando PGA Merchandise Show. She gave me a sample of the dBrush and, three days later, I did as she asked. It was love at first use and it immediately became a "must have" in my pocket. What I love most is its availability. It's as close as my pocket and does a fabulous job cleaning every bit of dirt off the grooves. I highly recommend it. Do yourself a favor and get yourself one. www.dBrush-Golf.com |

| Have you ever placed a brand new shiny golf
ball on the tee and then taken a mighty
swing
only to see that brand new golf ball
disappear
into the lake or the woods? Of course
you
have. That's what keeps Dr. Mulligan's in business, because he sells what he claims
are used golf balls but they look like
new.
In fact his used golf balls don't even
appear
to have been hit at all! What a find. I'd been waiting a long time to find a used golf ball source that grades golf balls honestly, and am glad to know my search is over. Dr. Mulligan's Golf Balls has only one grade -- "like new." If you're looking for a top-notch supplier of golf balls, I think you'll be as pleased as I am with these folks. www.drmulligans.com |

Sitting directly on the seafront (the Firth of Forth), most bedrooms have gorgeous views. The sumptuous sitting room (left) is the perfect setting for a relaxing evening after a good (or even a "bad'") day of golf). Normally available by the week, but now also abailable for a two-night minimum for a group of 4 and with the same superior services they offer to week-long stays. Green Craig has it all--even a helicopter pad. Ideal lodging for a group of friends or family. Highest kudos for Green Craig. www.greencraig.com |  |
