This Week at TravelGolf.com: Dec. 14, 2004 Believe it or not, there are less than 12 shopping days until Christmas. No
need to panic, however. Equipment editor Kiel Christianson's annual gift
guide features something for everyone on your list, from SofTrak Putting
Greens to Sun Mountain's Stormtight collection. Our friends at PinemeadowGolf.com are
also making things easier with their rundown of the best gift
options, plus tips on the best way to buy someone a new set of
clubs.
Also this week, be sure to check out columnist Chris Baldwin's look at the
golf
destination business fad. "There are so many new 'golf destinations' to
choose from if you want to break away from the usual roll call of Myrtle
Beach, Las Vegas, Scottsdale and St. Andrews," he writes. "Some turn out to
have as much claim to golf as Erik Estrada holds on an Oscar."
Lastly, we received an overwhelming number of applications for
our new reader
blogger program, an extension of our popular TravelGolf.com Blog. We'll
be sifting through the applications through the holidays, so if
you haven't already applied, be sure to complete our online form
soon. As always, your comments
are welcome on any topic, including your thoughts on the most overrated
golf destination. Have a great week.

There's one simple difference between the BCS and World Golf Rankings
computer, and it isn't that one has a built-in DVD burner. One relies
on opinion and statistics, while the other relies on nothing but
numbers and formulas. If staff writer Brandon Tucker had his way,
golf would implement a more controversial system.
