Have you checked out the last issue of Golfdom yet?


If you haven't, click here or over on the front cover on the right-hand side of this page. Lots of good stuff in the issue, including our cover story interview with former GCSAA CEO Mark Woodward!

And, for the record, it took me four issues until I got a Radiohead reference on the cover of the magazine. "Fitter, Happier" is a title of an offbeat Radiohead song off of their OK Computer album.

Take that, competition...! We're leading the industry in Radiohead references as well as What-a-Burger references! WHOO-HOO!!!!

10 totally random questions with GCSAA CEO Rhett Evans


By now you should have received your February issue of Golfdom, featuring a cover story on GCSAA's new CEO, Rhett Evans.

I had a great interview with Rhett for that story, and sadly, a lot of it wasn't able to make it into the piece due to space constraints. But I'll include the occasional sound bite from Evans here on the Golfdom blog when I have time.

For right now, I thought I'd post a fun part of our interview (that did not make the magazine) where I asked Rhett 10 random questions to learn a little more about his personality...
