Robert Garrigus: Former Green Blazer. His 28" putter isn't the only thing that makes him unique

Robert Garrigus is unique on the PGA Tour player for more than one reason. There's his 28 inch putter. Six inches below the new standard length of 34"(See video below. What a horrible putt!).


The 28" putter lands Garrigus T78 in the tour's putting average, but he hits it a green mile and is safe for next year at 77th on the money list.

Before finishing 2nd at Q school in 2006, Garrigus was a typical college bro who enjoyed smoking marijuana and drinking alcohol whenever possible. He admits to getting stoned up to 10 times a day and frequently getting black out drunk. He sure wasn't in PGA tour form in those daze, but this Blazer is sure he was having a good time. This went on for years; until one day, in a drunken stoned-out haze, he decided to make his pipe dream a reality. He was posted up on his couch watching a golf tournament, and thought, "I should be out there." Soon after that, he checked himself into rehab. After checking out, he turned his full attention to golf. He certainly means business now, but the next step for Robert is to chalk up the all important "W" to prove he's here to stay. When he does record that first win, The Green Blazer has a hunch he stashed away a little something for that all important victory bowl.

You Da Man Garrigus! Good luck in '08

Garrigus obviously hits everything hard. He needs the mini putter so he doesn't rip it off the green.

He deserves his props. He could of just kept smoking and turned into a lame blogger.

Admiring the persistence you put into your blog and in depth information you offer.

It's good to come across a blog every once in a while that isn't
the same out of date rehashed material. Excellent read!
