Why do we call out Tiger having a bad season when he wins 5 tournaments and has a season that many pros would consider a fine career. Because Tiger is one of the greats. We are witnessing a new era for golf. A legend in the making. I’m happy that my generation has witnessed so many greats. There’s MJ in backetball, Larry Bird before him, Gretzky in hockey, Jerry Rice in Football. Pete Sampras and Roger Federer in Tennis. The list goes on and on and then you stop and realize there will always be the next great legend. It’s evolution, efficient markets and competition. Whatever you want to call it, it’s inevitable that someone will come along and break all the records. A few weeks ago we witnessed the unthinkable. Usain Bolt demolishing the world record in the 100 and 200M. He makes it look it easy. There will always be another legend. When Jack Nicklaus was winning major after major, no one could comprehend a better champion. Someone who will win more than 18 majors. No one will ever be able to do it again. And here we are, only 23 years later after Jack won his last Major the 1986 masters, watching the unthinkable, Tiger chasing the record of 18 majors. Tiger is at 14. He almost had 15 at the PGA Championship a few weeks ago. He will eventually surpass Jack, it’s only a matter of time. What is Tiger’s final major wins number? No one knows for sure, but I’m gonna go out on a limb and say he finishes his career with 20-25 majors. And when Tiger’s career is all said and done, another generation will watch in awe as a new legend chases down Tigers record and ultimately does the unthinkable.

Woo Hoo! We just got word from Apple that our iPhone application was approved. Thanks to all our beta testers who gave valuable feedback and helped us improve the app to where it is today. We are focused on bringing the best and latest technology to golfers to make life easier and play more golf. This is our first iPhone application and complements the launch of our website. Over the next few weeks Team caddyshank will bring you a series of articles describing some of the great public golf courses in North America. We will feature four different courses from each state and province based on our experiences, our friends and your feed back. From our experiences we like golf courses that are well manicured, designed to incorporate the natural beauty of land while at the same time providing a challenge for all types of golfers. We want to highlight the courses that take your breath away as you stand at the tee box waiting to hit your drive down the middle. Let’s start off by describing who we are and what we are trying to do. We are 3 MBA’s that have a passion for technology and a love for golf. We would like to bring the new e-commerce and internet technologies that surround us, to the golf industry. By creating an online golf portal, we want golfers to have access to all things related to golf. Searching for golf courses, booking tee-times, and interacting within our community are just some of the features that we are looking to provide. Our goal is to create a place on the internet where golfers can come to get their golfing fix. Our first product is an iPhone app, CourseCaddy. We are awaiting Apple’s approval,so it should be on iTunes any day now. |
