Hangin' on to the roadtrip...

Hangin' out at Deadhorse Point, Utah

A few more random shots from the rockin’ roadtrip, then a bunch of goofy golf shots

We actually got back from the rockin’ roadtrip on Feb 16th, but I’ve been too busy playing catch-up since then to update the blog.  So, in honor of the wonderful weather, good company, and lots of miles and fun, I thought I would re-start the entries with one final one from Arizona.

We played 4 rounds of golf in three days – then had to shoot the Lost Dutchman marathon the day after the last round.  The weather was just incredible the entire time we were there in Arizona – perfect for some golf, so golf we did!

Yep – that one went in.  Too many of ‘em didn’t, or at least not soon enough!  I can’t really say that I embarrassed myself with my game, but could’ve played better.

That one went in ‘da hole’ too.

Never gonna find that one...

Unfortunately, I also spent a fair amount of my time on the course like this:

Ignore the golfer - look at the mountains!

But, overall, we had an awesome time – great courses, great weather, and some good times.

Being a full-time freelance photographer, I spend the majority of my time behind the lens, and rarely post photos of myself.  I thought it might be kind of fun to post a few of my bad golf form on here, and open it up for any of the comments and criticisms that may show up if any golfers are reading.  Mainly, though, I wanted to share with you all some of the really beautiful scenery on these courses we played on.  The view on some of the holes just basically took your breath away.  They were awesome.

Big thanks to my best buddy Mark Coffey from ActionSportsImages for really making the trip possible, and to my friend Aaron Lindberg for (wisely) deciding to not play and just shoot photos of us so we can really see how goofy we look!

Thanks for looking, and more blog updates to come soon of some recent shoots, and some cool places I’d like to tell you about!
