• Wynn Golf Club is more than just a pretty face
  LAS VEGAS -- When you play a golf course as pristine as Wynn Golf Club, it's easy to overlook the other elements that make it a premium golf experience.

• Bermuda a 'secret' winter golf destination
  My first 24 hours on Bermuda have been filled with delightful discoveries. I am sitting in my glorious room at Tucker's Point, an 88-room Rosewood hotel that opened in 2009. The window's open, letting in the fresh ocean breezes. Bermuda doesn't boast the steamy days like Caribbean destinati…

• Coincidence? National Geographic's top two 'Literary Cities' are big-time golf destinations
  Golfers tend to love books, and folks like to read when it's raining. So perhaps it comes as no surprise that the top two "Literary Cities" as determined by National Geographic are also big-time golf destinations with a reputation for rain checks. Checking in at No. 1 is Edinburgh, Scotland, wh…

• A dozen yellow Bridgestone golf balls beat a dozen red roses this Valentine's Day
  Valentine's Day is soon upon us, and let me offer a far more creative gift suggestion for the gal you love than a dozen red roses. How about a dozen yellow Bridgestone golf balls? The typical tour-level golf ball is much too firm for players with average amateur swing speeds to fully compress, whic…

• Tattoo Golf: Accessories with attitude
  The only thing that irritates me more than a three-putt is when non-golfers, upon hearing that you play, say something like, "My grandpa used to play golf" or "You don't look old enough to play golf" or "Golf is so boring!" Clearly, these sheltered, golf-biased dimwits have not been paying atten…

• Renting golf clubs can be the way to go when you travel
  On a recent California golf trip, noting the baggage fees to bring my clubs would be $75 for three legs and I would only be playing a couple of rounds, I opted for rental clubs at the golf courses. Ever since the airlines went nuts and decided charging to check bags (except for Southwest and Jet Bl…

  GALGORM, County Antrim, N. Ireland -- As my check-in day for Galgorm Resort & Spa neared, I was having a look over the resort's web site and noticed that, in addition to golf at nearby Galgorm Castle Golf Club, guests can take a 10-minute drive to Carnview Farms Clay Target Shooting Complex. It'…
