I’m not much of a jewelry guy, nor do I generally buy those little bracelets that are supposed to support – or at least signify support – for some cause or another. But the other day, I was sent a bracelet by the I’m Tired of organization that hooked me.

I’m Tired Of makes bracelets from recycled and renewable materials that say things like “I’m tired of cancer” and “I’m tired of global warming.” The black rubber and green metal bracelet I received said, “I’m Tired of Bogeys", and lord knows I am tired of those.

More importantly, though, is that half of the $10 price of each bracelet goes to Caddy For A Cure, a not for profit organization that supports and funds over a dozen different regional and national charities, including the Wounded Warrior Project, Fanconi Anemia Research Fund, PGA TOUR caddy Benevolent Fund, Alzheimer’s Foundation, St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital, and the Tiger Woods Foundation.

So I donned my bracelet and headed to the links to show my support for good works and my disdain for bogeys.

Sadly, even good karma can’t redeem my game. Perhaps my bracelet should say, “I’m tired of double-bogeys” instead.
