Vermont Golf 2010-01-312010-02-03 Winter Golf: Cold-Weather Compromise: Golf DigestIn skiing, after the months-long hiatus, I perennially rediscover the timing of last season within an hour or two my first day back. The motions of skiing are cruder, less critically precise. Conversely, during golf season, Im petrified to go longer than three days without touching a club lest a successful swing thought or groove evaporate. As Ben Hogan famously said, "Every day you miss practicing or playing is a day longer it takes to get good," a statement I believe is truer in golf than in any other discipline (though Ive never tried classical piano). I never walk away from a mountain disappointed in myself -- you dont ski a number, you just enjoy it -- but in golf my rounds that end in some degree of self-loathing are the majority. The flip side, of course, is that the successful rounds feel that much more fantastic. Filling the void of the winter months with another pastime and a new commitment to practice. - Golf world golf winter golf max adler golf digest
2010-01-09 Why should we be surprised golf course construction is in the dumps Its happened before Katharine DysonTake the early 30s to the early 50s during and following World War II and the 70s when higher costs and raging inflation curtailed the golf business and just about everything else. Golf courses built then tended to be hooks to sell real estate or year-round resorts like Stratton Mountain in Vermont. Everybody seems to be crying about the sad sorry plight of the golf industry. Courses are closing, architectural staffs are being reduced, Tom Fazio is said to be spending more time on the course playing the game rather then plotting new holes (and reportedly enjoying it), rounds are down and the number of golfers is declining.

2010-01-08 Community remembers longtime Vergennes chief Addison County IndependentThe procession wound its way to an equally fitting destination, nearby St. Peters, where Jackman was a communicant and faithful volunteer. Another 100 firefighters from all parts of Vermont and beyond flanked the walkway and saluted as Jackmans coffin was carried in, with his family members and his extended family the members of the Vergennes fire department following behind.

Im thinking now of a 60-year-old local guy who golfed three to four times a week. His shoulder did what overused golfing shoulders tend to do: They go south. So did his gut when he "rested his shoulder" and everything else for a few months. He returned to the links with the cutest little pot belly I ever saw.

2010-02-24 Against the Odds: 4 Athletes Who Overcame Enormous Obstacles 2010 Winter Olympics Readers DigestI wanted to push myself further. So in , I played tennis in the Transplant Games. Then the wife of one of my teammates told me about a womens triathlona half-mile swim, followed by a 12-mile bike ride and a 2. 1-mile run. The event was scheduled for a year later at Mount Snow, Vermont, and I thought, Let me see if I can work up to that. The prostheses allowed me to branch out into other sports. In 2007, I won silver medals in the 100- and 200-meter dashes at the Endeavor Games. Ive been on a relay team in a couple of triathlons and played in a golf tournament. But my main sport is skiing. I live in Clarksville with my wife and three kids, but Ive spent the past three winters in Aspen, competing in Alpine events with financial support from the Veterans Paralympic Performance Program. For these athletes, the impossible was just the beginning. Four stories of strength and determination. - Athletes olympics shannon kelly against the odds
