Golf Equipment Matters

Last updated on: August 31, 2019 at 12:35 pm By Kermit Zarley

A golf enthusiast commenter on my blog recently brought to my attention that he knew me in my high school days and that I then played a set of fiberglass-shafted irons. I replied that he was correct and they were Golfcraft irons. Another commenter then chimed in, saying “Golfcraft was the origin of Titlest back in the 50s.” Well, I knew that was wrong. So, here goes with a little history. Much of it I’ve just now gleaned from sources... Read more

Farmers Blast Trump

Last updated on: August 30, 2019 at 5:31 pm By Kermit Zarley

Roger Johnson, president of the National Farmers Union, blasted President Donald Trump in a very frank radio interview yesterday. The main take from what he said is that China is already a “lost market” for American farmers due to Trump’s tariff war with China and that it will take “decades” to get it back if that is even possible. Johnson concluded, “It’s going to take much different behavior from future presidents in order to repair this damage.” The interview was... Read more

Rory McIlroy and and Brandt Jobe Are Victors

Last updated on: August 26, 2019 at 12:48 am By Kermit Zarley

Rory McIlroy won the PGA Tour Championship at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta, Georgia, today by four strokes over Xander Schauffele. McIlroy also won the coveted FedExCup today to bank an extra $15 million. As the 2019 season came to a close, he was arguably the best player on the PGA Tour this year, with three wins. Yesterday, play had to be stopped and ended after the last group had only completed six holes. Thirty minutes later, lightning struck... Read more

Nicholas Burns Chastises Donald Trump

Last updated on: August 22, 2019 at 8:46 am By Kermit Zarley

R. Nicholas Burns was U.S. ambassador to NATO in George W. Bush’s administration from 2001 to 2005. Then he was Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs from 2005 to 2008. He is currently is the Professor of the Practice of Diplomacy and International Politics at Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government. He also presently holds several other titles regarding U.S. foreign policy, including being with Chatham House and the consulting firm The Cohen Group. I think the 63-year old... Read more

Why Does Trump Want to Buy Greenland?

Last updated on: August 21, 2019 at 10:50 pm By Kermit Zarley

U.S. President Donald Trump wants the U.S. to buy Greenland. Why? Some people think it’s because Trump wants to cash in on all of Greenland’s rich natural resources. Greenland has some of the largest iron ore and zinc mines in the world. Not so. Trump suspects that with global warming the only places that will be available in the world to build golf courses will be Greenland and the North Pole. About 80% of Greenland’s 811,000 square miles are ice-capped... Read more

Should Jews Love Trump as If He’s “the Second Coming of God”

Last updated on: August 22, 2019 at 8:51 am By Kermit Zarley

Yesterday, President Donald Trump said American “Jews who vote for Democrats show either a total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty.” Typical of Trump, with his often bizarre and incomplete communications, he did not explain whether he meant disloyalty to him, the Republican Party, or the State of Israel. He seemed to mean the latter. This is especially so since the recent news cycle has been devoted much to his having convinced Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last week to... Read more

Is Trump Anti-Semitic? How About Anti-Israel?

Last updated on: August 20, 2019 at 11:11 pm By Kermit Zarley

I think many of President Donald Trump’s statements make him look like a racist. However, as I’ve said before on this blog, I don’t believe a lot of what he says because he can be all over the map. One day he says one thing, and the next day he may say something else that contradicts what he said the day before. Thus, Donald Trump is not consistent in his statements. I don’t know if that is due to his... Read more

We Need More Ellen Weintraubs to Stand Up to President Trump

Last updated on: August 20, 2019 at 12:46 pm By Kermit Zarley

U.S. President Donald Trump is still harping about his claim that he and the Republican Party have suffered from massive voter fraud. In the presidential election in 2016, he had over three million fewer votes in the general election than Democratic nominee Hilary Clinton did, yet he had more votes than she did in the Electoral College, which determines the winner. Ever since, Trump has alleged that Ms. Clinton’s higher count in the general election was the result of voter... Read more

Thomas Wins the BMW Despite a Slow Play Tour

Last updated on: August 19, 2019 at 5:44 pm By Kermit Zarley

It’s old hat now, but Justin Thomas turned his six-stroke lead yesterday into a three-stroke win in the BMW Championship at Medinah near Chicago. And he did it without his Saturday A-game, when he shot a course record 61. He made it an interesting competition when he bogeyed the 10th hole, which left him with only a two stroke lead. But he got back to work, birdying four more holes for a 68 and 25-under par 263 total. Patrick Cantalay... Read more
