After the Round – Division Brewing

Some food styles don’t lend themselves well to shortcuts. Tavern-style pizza is one of them. Thin, crisp, yeasted, square-cut, and designed to be eaten casually rather than ceremoniously, tavern pizza was never meant to be flashy. Its purpose was practical: keep people seated, keep drinks flowing, and offer something satisfying without filling patrons up too […]

2026 GMC Sierra EV Denali Extended Range

Let’s face it; electric-powered vehicles are here to stay. Probably. If you’re old school like me, it took a while acknowledging the impending demise of petrol fuel rides.

After the Round – Prince Lebanese Grill

Drive Time – 2026 Acura MDX SH-AWD Type S Advance

Many of us fondly remember our favorite baseball glove. It fit perfectly, had the right break-in suppleness and we guarded it with our life.

After the Round – Crowns BBQ

Felicia Davis loves what she calls “country backwoods barbecue.” In her younger days, she would help in the kitchen and slice brisket at her aunt’s Crowns BBQ, which served Grand Prairie until its closing during the pandemic in 2021.

Drive Time – 2026 XC90 B6 AWD Mild Hybrid

After the Round – The Mont Fort Worth

There’s an old southern idiom my grandparents used all the time.

Over the last several years, Panther City and its surrounding areas have exploded with growth […]

Drive Time – 2026 Cadillac VISTIQ Premium Luxury

Drive Time – 2025 Lexus RCF F Final Edition

Classic car collectors are typically smitten by big engines with straight-line speed, a nostalgic exhaust rumble and the simplicity to repair. The naturally aspirated (NA) motors are large, powerful and becoming increasingly rare, given the popularity of turbocharged engines. Call it a siren song from decades past.

Fitness – Lats and Your Golf Swing

One of the key muscle groups that plays a crucial role in the golf swing is the latissimus dorsi. This is a large, flat muscle located on your back that extends from your shoulders to your pelvis.

Drive Time – 2025 Lexus TX 350 AWD Luxury

I’ve long admired the Lexus brand. The name immediately conjures thoughts of refinement, luxury, comfort and exquisitely smooth rides while enjoying consistent high reliability ratings via J.D.

After the Round – Roti Grill

Indian food is one of the culinary world’s conundrums. Some love it. Some are indifferent.

After the Round – Wok Star Chinese

We’ve all had standard take-out Chinese. I would guess that most of us order delivery or take-out Chinese at least a couple times a month.

Driving one will melt years off your calendar and evaporate everyday […]

Fitness – Use the Force

Power is a hot topic across all sports. How can we gain more power to become a better athlete? Unlike most sports, golf is unique, as the ball we are contacting is static prior to contact.

Fitness – Are Your Hips Limiting Your Golf Swing?

Reaching your full potential of movement during your backswing can have a huge impact on the power of your golf swing.

Cross Country Beast – The 2017 Mercedes-Benz G500

There are those occasions when curious thoughts infiltrate our minds. Like the notion of throwing down on a six-figure, four-wheel-drive tank that is old school, loud, heavy, tall, ominous and seemingly impermeable.

2018 Volvo S90 T6 AWD Inscription

BMW 540i – An Icon Re-Perfected

Not necessarily the biggest seller or most outrageous halo car, but one that possesses the required attributes to fulfill a majority of customer wishes. For BMW, I gaze toward the incomparable 2017 5-Series. It’s not the brand’s sleekest, fastest, sexiest or most fuel-efficient. […]

Dolce Riviera […]
