1. My weekend was great we had no school Monday, and half day Friday. On the half day I want to U-Ridge. Which is a very nice golf course. In fact it is the UW Badgers home course. I went with my friend David we play nine holes of good golf. I shot 43 and David shot 39. On the last hole it started pouring rain and we got soaked! The rain came down so quick I had no time even to get my rain gear on! I finished that hole with a Birdie just in time because lightning struck right after. On saturday…
Clear skies: one cloud left, two right. Slight breeze from the south, a typical fall day. The SHISH of the club in the swing, and the ball sounding TING off the club over and over. Music is coming from the phone on my golf cart with the no disturb mode turned on. Playing every day alone or with the team, always focused on the game, ignoring the reality of busy high school life. This is one of the ways to blank life. Blanking life is what I’m calling this time in high school and life, of just by…

THWACK! A golf swing can be heard from hundreds of feet away. This man just used 17 different muscle groups in his arms, legs, and abdomen--but is he playing a sport? Golf: sport, or just a hobby? Of course, many people would say either one. And, truly, there is only one answer. Golf is as much of a sport as basketball and baseball are. A sport, by definition on Dictionary.com, is “an athletic activity requiring skill or physical prowess and often of a competitive nature.” Therefore, golf…
of my favorite memories is when I surprised my dad in golf. We were either in North Carolina or South Carolina, I can’t remember which. This happened about a year or two ago. We drove far from our condo that was on the beach to another place that was pretty far away. We golfed in a neighborhood, which I didn’t find very safe but nothing bad happened. I have always, and still do, thought my dad was quite good at golf. Everything I know about golf, he taught me. Anyway, we were on a hole where…
1. Tiger Woods's sponsors made a decision that was in line with their own moral and personal attitude to decide on dropping Tiger Woods. It was an ethical issue as well as a business issue since the company may have wanted to sponsor Mr. Woods for not only his sports talents but also his present-ability as a upstanding icon. It was a decision that harked on whether or not the company could still utilize his image effectively when the information was public and tarnished. He was treated like a…
operational issue which effects the bottom line of the profit and loss reports significantly is the variable costs due to utilities, the largest being water. A project to construct two new catchments for water runoff which are designed as lakes for the golf course would reduce the water utility while fitting the goal in redefining the club by renovating the course to create 7 modernised holes. Currently water bills have a mean monthly bill of $17,500 which equates to $2.23 p/kL equaling…
Background: We all remember Segway’s from the early 2000s, but have you seen any around lately? Segway is a company that has always seemed to struggle getting off the ground. From overestimating the amount of sales, hiring new top executives to take the company in a new direction, and to mortgaging their Bedford New Hampshire factory. Segway seems to have many flaws in its operations, but can Segway dig themselves out of the dirt to become a profitable company? The concept of a Segway back in…
When Professor Danner asked us to take up a task which we are likely to fail at and then write about it, only one thing came to my mind – getting on the Squash Varsity Team. Before I detail what I learned during my rather arduous journey, I’d like to give some background on my abilities in this game and why this was an appropriate choice for this particular assignment. I started playing squash when I was ten years old. This is actually a few years earlier than when most people, who go on to…
and very messy to say the least. As time passed, people used something called a golf terry in which was similar to the golf tee, but the only difference was the golf terry had a cupped shaped head. To better explain this statement the golf tee that we used today, originally had the design of a tubular shaped head and aa wooden spike perfectly describing the gold tee. An known fact about Grant was that he loved to play golf. It is within this sport Grant showed his love for physics and interest…
