Anyone can learn to swing a custom clubs, and play golf. Golf is like any other game; it is a compilation of a number of skill sets. One must learn to swing a club, to move the ball; one must learn to aim, to move the ball in the correct direction; and the object then becomes moving the ball proficiently around the hole and ultimately around the course. The object of golf is to score as low as possible. This article will discuss the swing itself, but do not think that a great swing instantly makes a great player.

Executing a divorce can be a complicated process, according to a Tampa divorce attorney. Both parties have their own agendas and best interest at hand. Each party usually retains a lawyer to represent them. The lawyer’s job is to maximize the benefits and minimize the losses of the divorce settlement. But there are situations where a lawyer isn’t necessary. A couple may amicably decide to divorce. As a result they may come to an agreement between themselves, and not need a lawyer for negotiation.

FAGA is now on Twitter!

Quick! How many rules are there in Rules of Golf? If you say 34, then you are in company of a small population of golfers who know this like it was their birthday.

Three stand-up comedians set to conquer New York City on Sept. 20, 2008.

Are you hungry for a new and different type of Filipino entertainment in New York?

Samantha Lopez Productions (SLP), a new production outfit like no other, aims to redefine Filipino entertainment from the staple of pop concerts and cultural festivals to showcase its colorful vibrancy, cultural relevance and skillful ingenuity.

There was a valid argument raised in our last outing in Wild Turkey regarding raking the bunker after a shot that went into another bunker, say a greenside bunker. Rule 13.4a states that you may not test the surface of a hazard prior to playing out of it. Raking the bunker that you last played out of is deemed "testing the ground surface" when your ball is still inside a bunker even if it is not the same bunker.

We are in the mid-season as new champions are created and new faces emerge. Last year and the years before that we always see the same people making the Top 12, year in year out. Old faces like Joe Barreno, Willy Libid, George Javier, Nelson Perez, Noel Blumenau, etc. have lorded it over the past seasons.

For the past years that I have been a member of FAGA I realized that there is fun and excitement aside from playing on our regular tournaments. Every Tuesday we have a group called "BIAK NA BATO" aka Split Rock Boys composed of members and friends who religiously play and bond together at this hard but well kept Bronx course. This was the idea of our beloved BOD Nick Salubayba in creating a group of members who are free to play every Tueday. The course is not that easy, you have to play it with caution or you will end up scoring in the high 100's.

It started with a threat of rain but the tournament ended up with a beautiful afternoon sun. Anyway, I have an interesting foursome of Neil Pascual, Dr. Dalmy Francisco, and Nelson Perez.

This was the first tournament for Neil and Dalmy for the year 2008. Dalmy claimed that, it was a year ago that he played golf. Golfers as you know are like poker players, you do not know when they are telling the truth.

We have interesting actions in this group. In addition to the skins game and Nassau, we added the longest drive with side action with Neil Pascual.
