A new season is already underway on the PGA TOUR and I am joining in this week in Las Vegas at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open. I’ve enjoyed some down time the last seven weeks including kid’s birthday parties, my 20th high school reunion (yep I’m that old), cheering at the Chicago Marathon (my wife’s sis-in-law Tammy ran her 10th), and the routine of walking my oldest son to kindergarten every day. I also spent plenty of time with my trainer, Cory Puyear, hit some balls in front of Doc Jim Suttie and played rounds at Butler National, Shore Acres, Edgewood Valley and Cantigny.

I am excited for the new season and hope you are too.
