Idol.....izing.....is to love or admire excessively


Along my affliatiion with this forum, I have been lucky to be able to be part of the fan group of a few golfers who epitomizes the excellence in golf. So today, I just want to share with all..............my idols...total 5 of them as of now

Idol #1: This guy's nick rhyme with 'Blinker'. First got to know him as another nick and when stars and moons align, I was able to witness with my bare eyes why he has such fantastic record of golfing achievement.

Idol #2: This guy's nick is abit local....sound like 'Very berry good' in some local dialect. Watching him swing itself might be detrimental to one's pursuit of the game...WHY???? Because he makes it look so easy.

Idol #3: Wow...this is one of the odd ball where I have yet to withness with my bare eyes. Apparently he suppose to moonlight as 'a shoemaker (I tink)'. So much has been heard and so much has been said...but gotten one putting pointer fm him and like they said the rest is history as I now know why I cant putt.....hahahah

Idol#4: This is a committed golfer and yet he serve his nation. First got the chance to see his ability at laguna where he drove as far as an asian tour player. Got to see his swing close up during last week's SSN....well, seeing is believing.

Idol #5: This one is unique....I call him ...Mr. Boomz Boomzzzz...becos of his ability to turn par 5 into par 3. Most memorable was when I was lucky to be part of his flight and witness his boomerang drive.....wow...a sight to remember.

To all my idols.......best wishes for the rest of the year. and to show my sincereity, here's wishing each of you a Very Merry Xmas (way in advance).

Thanks....D (SB)

Idol 4 is my number 1 idol. Taught me chipping on carpet which I still use to save my a$$ many times. Then he did a trick shot at our local den which opened my eyes big big. He knelt down abd swung his driver. The ball just went straight!!!!!

Second is 'mr pink' aka snake catcher for his flamboyant dressing and amazing drive!!!

I have seen one video from a pro on one of his teenage disciple which I would put his age around 14 - 15 years old. He balanced on his left leg and hit a driver on that one leg, long and straight !!!!! Really unbelievable. Thats how they trained young guns there.

Dec .....year 2010.....had arrived.

My search for golf idols is still continuing. But alas, Nov had not been fruitful as did not have the chance to observe and admire the skills of the many who I had heard but not seen.

But things are not all gloomy, in Jan Year 2011, I will have the chance to observe in the closest distance possible to admire a certain golfer (hoping Jan 3rd) ....heard he is nothing short of spectacular in all round game ...and this is fm my #4.

Till Jan 2011......

Heres wishing all a very blessed Xmas and Happy new year.....may the year of 2011 be filled with great companions and frenship
