Happy 50 Years Vail


[YouTubeUlar] <— 20,260

“It was a lifestyle. A totally undefined lifestyle. And you were not judged at all on what you had been, or where you went to school, or whether you had a nickel… or a million bucks. None of it mattered. Everybody was evaluated for what kind of person they were… what kind of sense of humor they had. And it was a given that everybody was there because they loved the mountains.”
– John McBride

Happy 50th anniversary to Vail. I can’t say it you are like nothing else on earth, but I can definitely say that you are unique and I have enjoyed skiing you. Not as much as I have enjoyed skiing and growing up at my home mountain of Winter Park, Colorado – which celebrates 73 years of awesomeness this year – But I certainly am excited to take it down your backside on a hefty powder day.

Michael Phelps – 159 Foot Putt


[YouTubeUlar] <— 6,556 Unbelievable. Michael Phelps TSOIGDH at the Scottish Pro-Am last week and sank this 50 yard putt. Estimated at 159 feet ... this just quite could be the longest putt ever recorded - for a 24 handicapper. Here is some other fun links and long putts. [Golf Digest]
