Disco Stu & Kirkwood
June 26th, 2009 by Doug Kirkwood
I’ll make this short and sweet because I’m sunburnt and I need a nap.
If you didn’t know I have been caddying this week for Stuart Anderson a pro golfer on The Canadian Professional Golf Tour. This weeks stop is the ATB Financial Classic at Sirocco Golf Club, and Stu is sitting tied for 3rd heading […]
Stupid Mother Nature
June 18th, 2009 by Doug Kirkwood
Here we go kid’s major # 2 of the year and we’re off to a flying cannonball. Watching the staff at Bethpage Black run around with squeegees and rollers trying to keep the water off the greens may have been the most entertaining thing about day number one.
Even though this course is known to […]
Skin’s to Win
June 4th, 2009 by Doug Kirkwood
If you didn’t catch the Skins game that was played on Wednesday at Muirfield, you missed some serious fun.
The pool is deep and it will be a gunfight to see who will get the chance to pay their homage to the Great Golden Bear. You may have heard the story I told on the air […]
The Colonial’s Underwear
May 27th, 2009 by Doug Kirkwood
Ahhhhh doesn’t that Alberta sunshine feel good? Finally the nice weather has arrived and now is the time to put the hammer down and get some golf in. I have only been living in Calgary for two years now so I am still getting used to how short the golf season is, gone are the […]
Byron looses another
May 20th, 2009 by Doug Kirkwood
I was having a laugh with Greg Powers today on the phone; I said to him that I may have been the only guy that said on the air that Tiger Woods would miss the cut at the Byron Nelson. That was in 2005 and it’s interesting to note that Tiger has not played in […]
The Former # 1 in the World
May 14th, 2009 by Doug Kirkwood
This time of the year is usually pretty hot down in Texas, the humidity is just starting to ripen and summer is just around the corner. To say that there has been some hot play at The Valero Texas Open in the past is an understatement. Tommy Armour III shot 26 under par over the […]
Spring Tune Up
May 7th, 2009 by Doug Kirkwood
I don’t claim to be a golf expert and my game certainly reflects that, but being a fan of the game for as long as I have, I have learned some things that I would like you to think about before you buy your next set of clubs.
I’m not a teacher, though I do know […]
A Word in Spanish
April 23rd, 2009 by Doug Kirkwood
Next week is the Quail Hollow Championship and it should be a star studded field, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Anthony Kim, Vijay Singh, Sergio Garcia and many others have said they are in so that should fatten up the field enough to draw some television ratings. I will watch this weekend’s Zurich Classic but only […]
Was it a Masterful Masters?
April 16th, 2009 by Doug Kirkwood
Well now that we have had time to digest The 2009 Masters, I guess the next question is where does this tournament rank for you?
Oddly enough the networks got what they wanted, Tiger & Phil dueling it out in the final round and that was just one horse race. Then of course we had Campbell, […]
Masters Day # 1 is in the books
April 9th, 2009 by Doug Kirkwood
With the weather finally looking like spring in Calgary and the driving ranges around town filling up, you know folks are getting the itch to play golf again. It’s hard not to get a little jacked up when you have The Masters on and all of those incredible shots in HD come blasting through your […]
