A Month Until I Get To Show Off My Florida Gator Putter

Brian Allman of Sweet Spot Golf is my man. He is a long-time reader of SportsAgentBlog.com and makes sure to check in with me at least once a week, even if it is to just chat about a story on the blog. He also happens to have a great company in Sweet Spot Golf and is a part of a small class of young entrepreneurs who have a vision and run with it. Recently, he sent me a specially crafted University of Florida Gators putter, but unfortunately, sent it to my address in South Florida. While I won’t be able to fully enjoy the putter or let you in on its performance until March, I have a few pictures to throw up here for the time being. It was nice of him to send this to me, I already own a few Driving Irons that help me with my game, but having a custom made putter to add to my equipment is amazing. I’m looking forward to using it during my practices, while out on the course if I get any time to do so. Speaking of golf practice, a golfing buddy of mine suggested a golf simulator that he was using for his game. I kind of prefer using the course, but curiosity got the better of me and I went looking for a simulator similar to this skytrak golf simulator online. It’s pretty impressive, and I’ll keep it in mind if I ever want to use something like this to help me practice my swing.

I am really excited to add the club to my bag and show it off on the course. After reading this review, I am pumped!

That right there is nice…. Although mine would probably look better in Garnet & Gold…. I’d love to be showing one off to everyone on the golf course where I work.
