  • My Club Fitting Experience

    For the past 2 years I've been pondering on whether to custom fit my golf set but I had so many questions in mind like, is it really the golfer or the gear (is it the Indian or the arrow), will custom fitting my clubs help my swing (as they say each person's swing is unique), and will custom fitted clubs improve my over-all feel of the game and boost my confidence on the fairways?
     

  • Meet Enan... My Main Man In Del Monte

    From my experience when playing in a new course you need all the help you can get, so it is crucial to get a good caddy who is familiar with the course layout, speed & breaks of the greens and who is almost a psychologist. Luckily, when I played in the Frankie Miñoza Cup I was given a very good caddy... Enan Jaraula. Enan is actually Angelo Que's caddy when he plays in Del Monte Golf Club for the Philippine Golf Tour. Enan was always spot-on the with his tips and he even helped me with the tempo of my swing! He kept positive hence I had one of my better games.
     

  • Frankie Miñoza Cup

    The Philippines' Premier Golfer Frankie Miñoza has set up his own foundation called the Frankie Minoza Golf Foundation. The foundation aims to identify young talented individuals coming from the Visayas-Mindanao region and provide them the necessary education, social skills, equipment and tournament exposure to become world-class golfers. Basically they want to produce the next Frankie Miñoza and show the world that the Filipino golfers are a force to reckon with.
     

  • The Greatest Game Ever Played

    Movies are usually entertaining and a great way to unwind from all the craziness and busy schedules in life. I am a big fan of watching movies, may it be in the theatre, DVD or even off the internet. Setting aside at least two hours with your choice of popcorn, nachos, gummy candy, healthy / not so healthy snacks and your favourite soda completes the experience.
