Playing Golf in Hong Kong

...y popular golf venue for Japanese golf players.

One of the reasons for the increase in the number of Japanese golfers visiting Hong Kong is that there has been an increase in the number of daily flights between Hong Kong and Japan and the cost of flight tickets has decreased sharply.

The cheaper flights are mainly due to the increasing number of airlines that fly the route between Hong Kong and Japan.

The Hong Kong golf courses are much appreciated and admired by Japanese golf players for the high quality of facilities provided to golfers. However the main reason for Japanese golfers to go play golf in Hong Kong is the availability and the very low...more

PurePoint Golf Swing Technique Fairway Woods

...sole on the bottom of a fairway wood, a metal wood, is a lot wider than that of an iron; lets say the 8 iron. The sole on the 8 iron is about, maybe a fifth or a fourth as wide as a 3 wood. This is what happens if you try to hit a fairway wood from a fairway bunker shot.

What you do is, as you start to swing down, the sole of the golf club catches the ground and makes the wood skid. A lot of times youll take a little too much sand and hit it 10 feet, or youll top it.

The Super Bowl 2005-2006: Iron Men and Girlie Men

...did you watch the Super Bowl? I slept through the third quarter because there is switch in this old mans body that turns to OFF and there is nothing in Gods Universe that can take it off automatic. So I sleep for part of all football games. I just can't get that switch set to halftime.

I also miss part of each game because I read while Im watching the game. If not reading, Im doing a logic puzzle. If not reading or doing a puzzle, Im out in the kitche...more

Super Bowl Tailgate Parties

...clean up. Make a check off list so you don't forget important items like paper plates, napkins, plastic forks, and spoons and of course the paper towels. Trash bags will surely be appreciated when it's clean up time and of course remember to bring plenty of water.

A good tailgater dresses the part so don't be caught without your team colors. You can also bring a couple extra team jerseys or sweatshirts for your friends can dress their part. A good rule to follow in tailgating is arriving 3 to 4 hours before the game so you can get a good spot and set up. Serve the main menu item an hour and a half before the game so everyone can relax and enjoy their food. Plan to leave at least an hour or two after the game so you have hang out time to discuss the game and also clean up time. Be respectful and leave the area as you found it if not cleaner.

FA Cup Fourth Round Betting Review

...Striker DJ Campbell, last seasons FA Cup hero with non-league Yeading, dumped Premiership strugglers Sunderland out of the FA Cup to secure Brentfords spot in the last 16 for the second time in as many years.

The 5,000 summer signing opened the scoring after 57 minutes only for Argentinean midfielder Julio Arca to equalise for Sunderland. However, Campbell became the hero in the 89 minute, netting the winning goal to set up a memorable win for the 11/4 Bees.

Bolton Wanderers extended Arsenals away day blues with a 1-0 win at the Reebok stadium. The bookmakers priced this match according to Arsenals reputation, rather than their performances this season. Bolton were as large as 2/1 before kick-off, an insult considering they beat the Gunn...more
