I virtually “stumbled upon” this site. 🙂 Lefty Golf Pro When I first saw this, my giddy heart lurched and I thought “FINALLY!

I thought this was TOTALLY awesome! Well not quite TOTALLY, but almost. It would’ve been TOTALLY if they gave you an option (lefty or righty) on the higher end stuff, but, I digress… 🙂 My golf brothers and sisters over at OOBgolf.com are doing something pretty cool for the holidays.
