Baxter breaks slump with five under 66 Western Open lead
Rex Baxter putts brilliantly to a five under 66 in the Western Open first round, topping a crowded field of 129 pros. He leads by one over defending champ Juan Rodriguez with a large group at two under and more than 30 under par, as the battle for the 72-man cut begins Friday. Baxter credited a new putter style for ending a 14 month putting slump. Rodriguez dieted down 39 pounds to drive greens and rack seven birdies.

Sportsman Digest On Safer Fish Handling
Stringer tips favor a buoyant live lure approach with four fish per snap and avoid dragging fish behind boats. Use a swiveled stringer that lets each catch move freely and lift fish aboard briefly to reduce harm. Avoid cold or rapid-kill strings that injure gills during quick runs.
