John Daly is good for at least one memorable on-course blowup per year. Last season, Daly stormed off the course at the Australian Masters after depositing every ball in his bag into the lake on the par-5 11th in a Tin Cup-esque moment that left one tournament saying, "I would say this is the last time we will see John Daly."

Daly likely won't be barred from playing in Hong Kong after his most recent on-course blowup -- it was actually almost a year to the day of his meltdown in Australia -- but fans may want to keep their distance in the future.

According to reports, Daly reportedly lost his cool after having his picture taken multiple times during the second rounds and hurled his putter into the woods. After hearing of the incident, officials fined Daly an undisclosed amount for the incident.

Tournament director Michael Ericsson tried to justify the fine by telling reporters that, "Yes, the circumstances regarding crowd manners and behavior will be considered, but when it all boils

Jamie Sadlowski will likely be invited back to Golf Channel's studios in the future, but there's a really good chance the network will shy away from letting the long-drive champ tee it up on the in-house golf simulator.

Take a look as Gary Williams challenges Sadlowski -- who bombs the ball over 400 yards -- to a "friendly" long drive contest. No big deal, right? Well Sadlowski didn't even give Williams a chance to hit a single drive, after his one and only shot went through the screen. That's what you call insane ball speed, folks.

Blayne Barber doesn't believe in karma. Whether you agree with him or not doesn't really matter. What does matter, however, is that this wonderful, crazy game we call golf has been known to produce storybook finishes on the heels of gut-wrenching defeats.

Case in point: Blayne Barber's decision to DQ himself from Q-School six days after he advanced to the second stage. After spending nearly a week contemplating a questionable rules decision, the former Auburn Tiger decided he was the in wrong and needed to submit the disqualification so he could go to sleep with a clear conscience.

It was a huge blow to Barber's chances of making the PGA Tour -- especially with the tour going to a new Q-School format starting next year. But just eight days after the incident, Barber appears to be back on track, after he picked up his fourth win in six tournaments on the NGA Hooters Tour.

Sure, it's only a mini-tour win, but considering everything Barber's been through over the last week, recording

Arnold Palmer joins Tiger Woods on the cover of his golf video game. -- EA Sports

Have you ever wondered how Arnold Palmer, in the prime of his career, of course, would've stacked up against Tiger Woods or Rory McIlroy? Well, EA Sports is giving you the opportunity to find out in the latest edition of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14.

EA Sports announced on Thursday that Palmer would join Woods on the cover of the upcoming game. However, that wasn't the best news from the announcement.

The best news of all is that you'll be able to take Palmer and his incredible talent and see how he stacks up against the best players in the game on a virtual course. Sure, it's not exactly the same thing as seeing golf titans on the actual course, but it's the closet thing you'll get to a match between all-time greats. Give EA Sports credit for coming up with the idea.

If you've ever had the pleasure of meeting Von Miller or listening to him speak off the field, you'd have known the Denver Broncos linebacker is one of the good guys. The former Texas A&M (and DeSoto (Texas) High) football player may play with a mean streak on the field, but off it, he's quite possibly one of the nicest around -- a humble guy who gives back to his community whenever he can.

With concussions on the rise in prep football, Miller figured it made sense to ensure DeSoto (Texas) High, his alma mater, had one of the safest helmets on the market for the season. So he teamed up with Riddell to donate brand new Riddell 360 helmets to the entire squad.

"I wanted [DeSoto] to have the same protection I got, the Riddell helmet" Miller said in a video message to the team. "I got a couple coming out to you all. You can thank the guys at Riddell."

Miller was unable to make it back for the unveiling, but his parents were there on his behalf for the extremely generous donation. As you can see from the video, the players enjoyed trying on the new helmets, which happen to be the exact same version Miller uses every Sunday when he's on the field playing for the Broncos.

Bushnell Tour Z6 — BushnellWelcome to Devil Ball's Proving Ground, where we put the latest golf gear through its paces. Today, we take Bushnell's compact Tour Z6 rangefinder for a spin around the course.

Tester — Jonathan Wall — Handicap: 2.1

Target Golf Audience — All players

Initial thoughts

Like the Pro1M -- which we reviewed earlier this year -- the Tour Z6 has a number of great features that are worth pointing out. For one, there's the great white/black color scheme that gives this rangefinder a classy look. Obviously, having a pretty rangefinder won't help you play better, but it's nice to see Bushnell maintaing the black/white/red look from the Pro1M on down to the slimmer Z6.

As far as features are concerned, here's a look at what you get with the Z6:

• Tour Certified
• PinSeeker Technology to zero in on the flag
• Up to 1/2 yard accuracy
• 5 yards-1,300 yards ranging performance (450+ yards to a flag)
• Vivid Display Technology (VDT) for all lighting conditions
• E.S.P. (Extreme. Speed. Precision.)
• 6x Magnification (objects appear 6x closer)
• Premium lens coatings for superb optical quality
• Adjustable diopter setting
• Rubber armored metal housing
• Posi-Thread™ Battery Door
• Waterproof (IPX7) and RainGuard HD lens coating
• 3-Volt Battery and Premium Carry Case are also included
• 2 Year Warranty

If you're wondering why I'm listing every feature, it's because I want you to notice that with the exception of getting an extra 100 yards to the flag, the Pro1M and Tour Z6 are almost identical in the almost every way.

Why is this important? I think some people would probably look at the Tour Z6 and automatically assume that just because it's smaller it likely doesn't have the same technology (especially since it comes with a cheaper price tag).

Wrong. Unless you need that additional "x" in magnification (7x vs. 6x), there's no reason why you can't pick up the Z6 and feel confident it'll give you the right yardage the first time you hit the target.

The slimmed-down look allows this rangerfinder to fit easily in your hand and fire. Now here's the one drawback to the Tour Z6. If you're the guy who enjoys shooting with the rangefinder in the horizontal position, the Tour Z6 may not be for you. Unlike the Pro1M, which allows you to shoot vertically or horizontally, the Tour Z6 only shoots from a vertical position.

On-course thoughts

I rarely take a golf cart when I go out and play, so the Tour Z6 was a nice change from the bulkier Pro1M, which used to hang on my bag and bounce around. With the Z6, it's compact enough to put in my pocket if I'm walking up to a shot with a couple clubs. I never felt like I had to keep a hand free just for the rangefinder.

Another nice addition? How about the addition of a decimal point when you get close to the flag. Sure, most of us likely couldn't tell the difference between 121 yards and 121.4 yards, but it's nice to know Bushnell is trying its best to give golfers the most accurate rangefinder on the market.

The first game of the high school basketball season is usually reserved for knocking the offseason rust off and getting acclimated to playing against someone other than the guys on your own team.

But for Arlington Country Day (Fla.) forward Dante Buford, his first game of the season wasn't about getting back to full speed. Nope, his first game was all about putting on an impressive show for the fans that showed up for Arlington Country Day's season opener against Faith Baptist Christian (Fla.).

Normally one highlight-reel dunk per game is enough to get you noticed. Buford, however, prefers his in pairs, after he pulled off two of the best dunks of the early season with a reverse alley-oop and an eye-popping windmill putback that looked like something you'd see in the NBA Slam Dunk Contest.

The 6-foot-6 junior clearly has some impressive hops, and based on the way he's been playing over the last couple of seasons, it's no surprise that N.C. State, South Carolina, Clemson, Illinois and Virginia Commonwealth are chasing his signature.

There was a board game I absolutely loved to play when I was a kid called "Mouse Trap." If you don't know the game, the goal was to build this incredible Rube Goldberg-esque contraption before trapping your opponent's mouse in the trap.

I'm not sure if the folks at Red Bull played the game growing up, but this right here, friends, is a real life Rub Goldberg machine that happens to have some of the best athletes in the world playing the role of the kicking shoe or the metal ball.

Rickie Fowler plays a role in the video, holing out a chip shot. But honestly, the shot pales in comparison to some of the stunts guys like Danny MacAskill pull off.

Normally I'd jump ahead to the Fowler shot and tell you that's the best part, but seriously, do yourself a favor and watch the entire thing. You'll be glad you did.
