Cybergolf, next best thing to being there?

Cybergolf of course. Where have you been, man?

Cybergolf is intriguing stuff. At least it was after I heard the latest US Amateur champion - Eduardo Molinaro - say it helped his game. So what is it.

Basically you play classic golf courses online. You play the holes just as they are, meaning you see the real thing online. You can play at your keyboard or even swing a real club in the confines of your living room. Space age stuff, but think of the possibilities. Thinking of a vacation to Scotland to play Turnberry? Play it online first to see if you are really going to like it!

While these simulations are limited to world class courses, they may include 1000's in the future. Playing a member guest at an unfamiliar course, play it online first. Nobody will have to tell you that your 280 yard drive is going to get wet on the 10th hole because of the hazard you can't see from the tee.

May last recommendation and another cyber tool tomorrow.
