Back To The Blog


Well.....after taking some time away from the blog to release Secret In The Dirt I am ready to get back at it.

Thanks to everyone who has picked up the book and to all those who have stopped in to check out the new forum at http://www.secretinthedirt.com/ .

In the upcoming days and weeks I will be talking more about Moe and Ben, but I am also going to be dropping more nuggets about the likes of Henry Cotton, Harry Vardon, James Braid, Ernest Jones, Percy Boomer, Long Jim Barnes, James Braid, and "the best tee to green" Ben Hogan ever saw, Wild Bill Mehlhorn.

So hang on folks because 2009 is going to be a fun ride. We just might learn a thing or two from those old codgers.

To start us off hear is a fantastic video of the great Henry Cotton. Bowden and Aultman called him "The Supreme Hands Player." When you get a look at this little video posted by brokgolfer at YouTube you will see Henry Cotton a hair past his prime no doubt but still in truly amazing form. As mentioned in this video Cotton was to British golf what Ben Hogan was to American. Oh and that is Sir Henry Cotton at the top of this post.
