He has combined his working knowledge of web design and his love of golf into creating several growing golf realted web sites; Weekend-golfer.com is a complete resource for anything and everything golf related. You can find golf tips, information on equipment, and even gift ideas for any golfer. Thelongputter.com web site focuses on information about the long putter. The senior-golfer.com targets information to help the older golfer and 4wedges.com is only about the pitching, gap, sand, and lob wedge.

Larry also does free-lance web design and management for local businesses that can't afford their own in-house web designer but need to have a web presence to enhance their business.
As a golf enthusiast for close to 50 years he has also built golf clubs, for himself as well as for others. He recently began using the long putter to help with erratic putting. He finds his distance control has improved which has lowered his scores. He says that he doesn't fear three putting any more because it just doesn't seem to happen as much.
Larry lives in South Elgin, Illinois with his wife and best friend, Debbie, their daughter, Mary, and their dogs Ebony and Penny.
