I stumbled across a very cool new product that we are going to add to our catalogue: "The Little Hole". It is a putting green cup that is much smaller than a regulation cup in diameter, barely allowing the ball to drop in. I practiced on one of these at a fancy golf course and followed the instructions given a small plaque. After a few minutes of practice on this smaller hole from a few feet, I moved to the regulation hole and ... it looked like putting into the ocean. I thought this is a "must have" for the backyard golf green crew. Practice and even play on one of these holes is challenging and a lot of fun. Look for them soon on the products page. Leo Melanson
