Fore Inventors Only was a reality show on the Golf Channel that looked at new golf inventions. These were the golf inventions that made it to the finals and the percentages they received from voters.

  • Club Caddy - David Jones (30%)
  • Hill Shot Golf Trainer - Larry Koch and daughter Brandi (24%)
  • ClubGlider Travel Bag - Gary Sherrell (17%)
  • The Z Factor Perfect Putting Machine - Dean Thompson (15%)
  • ProPlay GPS - Marcus Bohn and Tim Kipley (13%)

    An entry on Brent Kelley's Golf Blog says it was the ClubGlider travel bag that was actually the favorite of the judges on the show. You can read more about it on the product website.

  • Who are Hollywood's Top Golfers

    Golf Digest has posted a list of the 100 Top Hollywood Golfers. It's full of actors who love to golf. Some like Jack Nicholson and Bill Murray are often spotted golfing. Ohter celebs on the list may be photographed less often on the golf course. Maybe they hide from the golf course paparazzi.
    Actor Jack Wagner, with a plus-0.3 Handicap Index (he not only matches but occasionally scores better than par), sits atop the 2007 ranking. A member at Bel-Air Country Club in Los Angeles, he frequently hits the driving range with 2005 No. 1 Dennis Quaid, who comes in at No. 9 on this year's list.

    Rounding out the Top 10 are: No. 2 Lucas Black, No. 3 Billy Crudup, No. 4 Craig T. Nelson, No. 5 Chris O'Donnell, No. 6 Joel Gretsch, No. 7 Scott Wolf, No. 8 Dougray Scott and No. 10 Flex Alexander.

    Jack Nicholson, who is on the cover of the December issue and is tied for 47th on the list, tells Golf Digest, "Just when you start getting better, you realize how much work it would take to be really good. You can't do the game justice without putting in the time."

    Other celebrities on the list include: Samuel L. Jackson (11), Bill Murray (T-13), Kevin Costner (39), Luke Wilson (T-40), Will Smith (T-60), George Clooney (T-68), Catherine Zeta-Jones (88), Tom Cruise (95) and Will Ferrell (100).

    The highest ranked woman on the list is former Charlie's Angel and current "Las Vegas" regular Cheryl Ladd (T-68). The youngest ranked celebrity is "The Sixth Sense" and "Pay It Forward" star Haley Joel Osment (30) at 19 years, while acting legend and long-time golfer Clint Eastwood (57) makes the list at age 77.
    Tin Cup star Kevin Costner is on the list at #39.
