Putting Gadget: Martin Cummins Putting Template

 What putting gadget do you use?  I have quite some history of putting gadgets, but I've settled with these three for some time. 1. A putting template  2. Mirror  3. Metronome  A putting template is extremely helpful to work on the path and build awareness for the putter's face. I like templates more than a board or an arc because it builds feel from within. Working to follow the path and the face angle on the template teaches us the right feeling of the stroke. The most important objective of these putting aids is to build the correct feel and movement, and templates are the best gadgets to hone this.  I've used the Visio templates which I really liked, and right now, I am using the Martin Cummins putting template.

The product can also help with digestion with its probiotics.  Full nutritional benefits for Power Cocktail is online, and I suggest reading it if you're interested in nutrition because it is quite...

Madrid Gets Snow: A week off the course

Here it is, 2021 off to a very interesting start.  Madrid had the biggest snowfall in 50 years.  The news was on several multi-national news channels which underlined the severity of the crisis.  It was a "natural disaster," but I'd say many people in Spain were happy to see snow, and the city was ecstatic with a festive mood. There were pedestrians with snowboards and skis enjoying the snow and families making snow angels and snowmen in the middle of the streets.  In midst of the chaos, there was this man with the dog sled.  And on top of all this, Gran Vía, equivalent to Broadway Street in New York, turned into a large snowball fight destination.  The newscasters mentioned how the snow was almost knee-high, and I would agree with that, as you can see in the video below.  I was cozy in my golf rain gear, double socks, and mittens.  Transportation is still paralyzed so a lot of people are choosing the metro. As of January 14th, there are more cars...
