LuckyDog asked:


Is the Rabbit just a newer version of the old Golf? I had a 2004 Golf and really loved it. Until someone stole it. Now I drive a Pick-up and I’m thinking of going back to VW.

Good Ol’ Florida Swamp Boy asked:


I was wondering what are some good ways to practice golf in you’r backyard prferably without spending tons of money, please. I don’t have that big of a yard, I also live in a decently busy neighborhood so I dont want to hit a car or a home. Basically put, what are some safe and fun ways to practice golf in my backyard? I would like ideas that include woods, irons, wedges, and putter. If you could list a (few) websites that have products that I could purchase to use please do so.
Thanks for all the help,

JP asked:


I am a member of a golf course and regularly find golf balls, some in good condition. I have quite a lot and would like to make some money by selling them. I have considered selling them to the club shop, on ebay or in a local sports shop. The p+p seems to be too expensive on ebay and i want to know which you think is the best option.

How can I maintain a fluid golf swing with muscles in the way?

Posted on Friday, 27th June 2008 in Golf

woods asked:


I used to be muscular, and while I could hit the ball pretty far, I couldn’t hit it consistently well. My muscles, notably chest muscles, would impede my golf swing. Now that I’m much less muscular (rather skinny), my golf swing is like butter and I hit it extremely well (though not as far). However, I want to put on muscle mass again and am wondering if there’s a way to maintain my current golf swing while doing so.

Thanks in advance.

I have only practiced at the shooting range and I have never stepped foot on a golf course. How do you know where to start and how do you know what hole to advance to next?

What is more mentally demanding, for a proffessional to play golf? Or an elite running a Marathon?

deusted asked:


I’m trying to see what the public opinion is. I’ve ran a few marathons myself and am very well aware of the not only the physical demands; but also the mental/psychological concentration that a marathoner needs to have in order to do well. I have very limited experience with Golf. But is it accurate to say that Golf has a more mental/psychological demand than running a Marathon? What is your opinion?

How does Yahoo Fantasy Golf and Auto Racing work?

Posted on Wednesday, 25th June 2008 in Fantasy Sports

Poloi asked:


I just signed up for Yahoo Fantasy Golf and Auto Racing. How does this work? I picked my team for the Auto Racing and Golf. Do I get points based upon their results in real-life races/golf tournaments or are the races/golf tournaments simulated and have their own winners? Is it like a pick-em for each real-life race/tournament to see who does best? I don’t get this!
