About: I joined the gang at Gear Patrol because I believe that as men we often settle for less than the very best lifestyle we can attain. It’s been ingrained into our psyches to forgo certain products, services or lifestyles because they don’t fall within some antiquated male paradigm. Bunk.
It’s time as men to stand up and redefine what’s rightfully ours. Much of what I have learned to this end has come through advice from guys who had the experiences and knowledge I was seeking. My only regret was not learning it sooner. Now I feel it’s my obligation to pass along what I know. I’m not saying I have all the answers but I’m happy to share what I’ve learned so far.
On a more personal level, I live an active lifestyle and focus on my health and wellness as a means to sustain the frenetic pace. I also suffer from a case of golf-itis and spend a lot of my free time perusing that passion… ok, obsession. I aim to incorporate relevant fitness and golf content into Gear Patrol’s expanding coverage of all things male. Like the rest of the crew I can’t stand over-hyped, under-performing products. None of that crap will be perpetuated here.See Authors Posts (93) on Wed, Aug 6, 2008 | Email To A Friend

Sand wedge anyone?
It’s crunch time on the PGA Tour. One final opportunity to claim a Major Championship this season. Whoever lifts the Wanamaker Trophy on Sunday will have to contend with Oakland Hills…or as Ben Hogan named it, “The Monster”. It’s also the last chance to secure a position on this year’s US Ryder Cup squad. All in all there’s plenty of pressure to go around this week.
The South Course was designed by Donald Ross, who upon seeing the land said, “The Lord intended this for a golf course.” Any Ross designed course is sure to have one thing…multi-tiered greens. Find yourself on the wrong level and putting will become an adventure to say the least. Bring on the 90th PGA Championship. Visit the site for more.
