How You Can Benefit From A Site With Golf Equipment Reviews

Sometimes I think back of the days when I started playing golf. Things were simple then. A wood was still made of wood, and a 5-iron was a 5-iron. Or at least that’s what I thought until I learned Read more...

He shoots a one-under-par 70 in the final round for a 16-under 268 total to earn the Northern Trust Open title and move up to the No. 2 ranking.

Jerry West appreciates golfers' talent, fans
The basketball legend, who is in his first year as executive director of the Northern Trust Open, says he couldn't imagine playing or watching golf in the heavy daylong rain experienced Friday.

Steve Stricker and Riviera, fitting to a tee
The 42-year-old's performance was so warm and fuzzy that it was greatly valuable to officials at Riviera Country Club, who want to bring the U.S. Open back to the legendary course.

Steve Stricker's play has been strikingly good
The PGA Tour veteran rarely is mentioned in discussions of the world's best golfers, but right now he's playing as well as anyone out there. He's 14 under through 50 holes at rugged Riviera. Steady Eddie has taken Los Angeles by storm, or at least those parts of it still dry enough to care about golf. <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/C54RFjyRcs5vt5Xi65SC7zQY-Jk/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/C54RFjyRcs5vt5Xi65SC7zQY-Jk/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/C54RFjyRcs5vt5Xi65SC7zQY-Jk/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/C54RFjyRcs5vt5Xi65SC7zQY-Jk/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/latimes/sports/golf/~4/njWh7ncHsgo" height="1" width="1"/>
Steve Stricker looking for a Hollywood finish
He hasn't finished third round, but he leads by five shots at Riviera. Steve Stricker saw deer and coyotes and plenty of birdies Saturday at Riviera Country Club at the Northern Trust Open after spotting a Kardashian sister Friday night at the Lakers game. <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/3UuurMaCSdFfsgUcIfW63Y-wgbM/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/3UuurMaCSdFfsgUcIfW63Y-wgbM/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/3UuurMaCSdFfsgUcIfW63Y-wgbM/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/3UuurMaCSdFfsgUcIfW63Y-wgbM/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/latimes/sports/golf/~4/VbI3K5kAosc" height="1" width="1"/>
Phil Mickelson's luck seems to have run out
Mickelson won the last two Northern Trust Open titles after getting advice from Hall of Fame golfer Amy Alcott, but he is tied for 19th after three rounds this year. Amy Alcott is always happy to help a fellow golfer. <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/sCcJCbVp378ADleVxvvNj8ZoMkQ/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/sCcJCbVp378ADleVxvvNj8ZoMkQ/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/sCcJCbVp378ADleVxvvNj8ZoMkQ/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/sCcJCbVp378ADleVxvvNj8ZoMkQ/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/latimes/sports/golf/~4/8P_2UIdxCz4" height="1" width="1"/>
Steve Stricker, Dustin Johnson conquer the elements
An all-day rain at the Northern Trust Open creates horrible conditions, making their performances, especially Johnson's hole in one, all the more impressive. Friday was a day of men playing golf in winter stocking caps in Los Angeles. <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/aY0QyUZXEa0MPp-Yg1z5Kq-t3kc/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/aY0QyUZXEa0MPp-Yg1z5Kq-t3kc/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/aY0QyUZXEa0MPp-Yg1z5Kq-t3kc/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/aY0QyUZXEa0MPp-Yg1z5Kq-t3kc/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/latimes/sports/golf/~4/CUWTUzSeKX8" height="1" width="1"/>
Steve Stricker sloshes to a 65 and a share of lead
Dustin Johnson has a hole in one and is also at 10 under, but he has two holes to play in his second round. It was almost dark when golf started at 6:50 a.m. Friday at Riviera Country Club. It wasn't very light out when Steve Stricker sloshed his way through a considerable downpour for 18 holes. And it was hard to tell it was dusk at 5:02 p.m. when play was halted at the Northern Trust Open because of darkness. <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/ZV-ug6VO6rE31N5osBG59NKGo3U/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/ZV-ug6VO6rE31N5osBG59NKGo3U/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/ZV-ug6VO6rE31N5osBG59NKGo3U/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/ZV-ug6VO6rE31N5osBG59NKGo3U/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/latimes/sports/golf/~4/509oC6EMQBg" height="1" width="1"/>
Anthony Kim tries to rebound
After a disappointing 2009, he is beginning his year at Riviera and is tied for seventh after two rounds. Los Angeles native Anthony Kim , 24, who won two PGA Tour tournaments in 2008 and was tabbed as the next great young American golfer, is determined to rebound after what he called a "disappointing" 2009, in which he had only three top-10 finishes after eight the year before. <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/1jVtmZl2DVVmyg3l5azM3fBBCMc/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/1jVtmZl2DVVmyg3l5azM3fBBCMc/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/1jVtmZl2DVVmyg3l5azM3fBBCMc/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/1jVtmZl2DVVmyg3l5azM3fBBCMc/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/latimes/sports/golf/~4/m_w1WUXS1kw" height="1" width="1"/>
Steve Stricker's style of golf is smart, not sexy
The world's third-ranked golfer doesn't attract lots of attention or create drama. He finishes the first day of the Northern Trust Open three shots off the lead with a four-under 67. The difference between the current top two active golfers in the world was on fascinating display Thursday afternoon, as the first round of the Northern Trust Open at Riviera ended. <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/kfZig-z4Y_Mcj4oTocFubVHsu3M/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/kfZig-z4Y_Mcj4oTocFubVHsu3M/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/kfZig-z4Y_Mcj4oTocFubVHsu3M/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/kfZig-z4Y_Mcj4oTocFubVHsu3M/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/latimes/sports/golf/~4/Ix5gZoutTzU" height="1" width="1"/>

Keeping Your Eyes Over The Ball
By Jeff O'Brien
When your body is properly positioned your eyes will be directly over the ball, maybe a little in front or behind, but still directly over the ball or target line.

The target line extends through the ball and to your target this is the line your ball should follow after you make your stroke.

It is actually better for your eyes to be behind the ball so you can look along the line to the hole without twisting your head.

If your eyes are too far in front of the ball it puts your weight forward and will usually cause you to use a more downward blow on the ball.

Positioning your eyes properly over the target line allows for the preferred straight-back and straight-through stroke, which keeps the putter directly over the target line for the majority of its path.

There are a couple of test you can give yourself to verify that your eyes are in the right position, you should do this before you find yourself having problems with your putting.

Take your normal position with putter in hand, after you are

in place, throw the putter away and take another ball out of your pocket, hold it to the bridge of your nose and drop it.

If you are in the proper stance, the ball should hit the ball on the ground or right next to it on either side of the target line. The second method involves a mirror and a thin roll of colored adhesive tape.

Place a line of tape down the center of the mirror extending at least a foot past both edges of the mirror.

Cover the mirror with a piece of paper, place a ball on the tape right at the edge of the mirror and take your stance.

Take aim at a point further down the tape, when in your stance have someone remove the paper.

If you are in the proper position, your eyelashes should be visible on either side of the tape, but your eyeballs should be covered by the tape.

Using either of these tests will allow you to keep your eye position correct if you continue to use them occasionally during your practice sessions.
