Tartan of the Week - help out D'Rae Ward on the Futures Tour


This week's Tartan of the Week celebrates several things:

1) TartanGolfGrips.com is starting a new program. After reading an article about Futures Tour player (and former LPGA'er D'Rae Ward) at WaggleRoom, I decided to do what I could to help her out, and decided to donate a significant portion of the sales of the County Donegal tartan grips to help defray D'Rae's tour expenses. How's that for a tagline - "Help defray D'Rae's expense!" You can read more here...

1a) I sold the very FIRST County Donegal Artan(TM) today...that's a good omen....

2) It's ten days til St. Patrick's Day...the FIRST celebration of the year of all things Celtic...

3) The Duramed Futures Tour season kicks off this weekend...more here...

4) Annika Sorenstam's season ALSO kicks off this weekend, and the tournament is in Mexico...Lorena Ochoa's homeland! You can buy your own Mexico flag putter grip just like the one Lorena uses at MexicoPutterGrip.com.

5) Daylight savings starts on Sunday - that's cause for a party unto itself!!! (GOLF after work!!!)

6) It's springtime....and this weekend is supposed to feature RECORD WARMTH....break out the sunscreen folks!!! We're goin' GOLFIN' in San Diego!!! This will be a nice opportunity to break out my new Callaway stand bag (with the TartanGolfGrips.com embroidery on the side pocket) at the Coronado golf course.

7) I had lunch with Larry Stewart, owner of TeeClub.com, and we discussed his business expansion plans. Larry's got some interesting ideas to expand the TeeClub.com footprint beyond the local area, and his ideas are really compelling. Surf on over to TeeClub.com to get an idea of what TeeClub.com 1.0 looks like...version 2.0 is going to be pretty cool.... I'm going to be supporting future "Fantasy Tour Challenge" competitions with donated TartanGolfGrips.com grips as prizes....I finished in the top 25 of the latest Fantasy Tour Challenge, and won a Zen Golf CD from Dr. Joseph Parent.
