But after just a little bit of practice, your back starts to hurt. After a little more, your neck is getting sore. All that bending over takes its toll, and the aches and pains of a practice putting session can dissuade some golfers from putting in extra time on their putting.
Just like with the long game, it is important to warm up before working on your putting. And there are even some simple stretches or activities you can do during your putting session - and after it - that can help your body handle the strains.
Check out an article about exercises to make putting practice less painful.Comments (1)PermalinkPGA Tour Q-School - Second-Stage QualifiersSunday November 16, 2008Four second-stage qualifiers for the PGA Tour's final qualifying tournament were completed on Saturday, and some notable names made it through to Q-School finals ... while others didn't.

Comments (0)PermalinkMichael Jordan Playing in Next 'Golf Digest' U.S. Open ChallengeThursday November 13, 2008The inaugural Golf Digest U.S. Open Challenge took place at Torrey Pines this year prior to the start of the U.S. Open. The next one takes place the week before the 2009 U.S. Open at Bethpage Black in New York.
And Michael Jordan will be one of the celebrities taking part.
The Golf Digest U.S. Open Challenge was inspired by Tiger Woods' comments at Oakmont in 2007 that a 10-handicapper couldn't break 100 in U.S. Open conditions. So the magazine and the USGA put it to the test by selecting one "regular" golfer to join three celebrities for a round at Torrey Pines just prior to the Open.
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo shot 84 that day, entertainer Justin Timberlake posted 98, and "Today" host Matt Lauer carded a 100. The lucky contest winner was John Atkinson, and he shot 114.
Next year at Bethpage Black, Jordan will be one of the three celebrities, according to an official with the event who spoke to the Associated Press. Timberlake will return, while the third celeb has yet to be selected.
And the "regular" golfer? Well, it could be you. If you'd like to enter for a chance to earn that fourth spot, visit gdopencontest.com for all the details. You'll have to submit a six-word (yes, just six words) "essay" explaining why you should be the choice, or you can submit a 60-second video. The deadline to enter is Jan. 31, 2009.Comments (0)PermalinkNew Equipment: 'Nitrogen-Charged' DriverThursday November 13, 2008What's a "nitrogen-charged" driver? It's the PowerBilt Air Force One driver, whose clubhead holds nitrogen gas under pressures of up to 150psi. The gas, PowerBilt says, buttresses the clubface without the need for mechanical bracing, and that allows the company to use thinner, more flexible clubfaces.
The nitrogen-powered driver leads off our latest roundup of new equipment. Also included are Titleist Vokey wedges, TaylorMade Rossa putters, plus golf bags and travel bags.
