Leave the Pin In Interviews Jimmie James (Played all Golf Digests Top 100 Courses in One Year)

Sometimes when you’re trying to describe something as amazing as what Jimmie James has accomplished it is better to be succinct and let everyone else fill in the details. “Hello, I'm Jimmie James. I recently retired and began a one year quest to play the Top 100 Golf Courses in the Country. I started to play golf 13 years ago. My quest was not the result of years of planning. I am building it as I go, with the help of many people that I'm meeting along the way” That quest, that Jimmie referred to is a pipe dream for...

Scenes From a Driving Range

So here's a confession. I do A LOT of different jobs in the golf world. Obviously I write for SwingJuice.com. I also work the pro shop at a driving range, teach at said Driving Range, run fitness programs for Tour Pro's, ranger at a local course and finally I am one half of the Leave the Pin in Podcast.

Requiem for a Golf Season

"It's like the mist is pretty, ya know? The gold and silver. To bad it can't stay like that all the time." Nothing gold can stay And just like that golf season is over. If you live in the southeast or southwest please don't rub it in. For us in the north, it's dead and gone. We loved it while it lasted but in the end, ashes to ashes and dust to dust. I remember the promise at the end of last winter. I was on the course before the all the snow had melted in the woods. The ground...
