Men's Oakley Golf Shoes TODAY'S GOLF - Thursday, May 6, 2004"Tips... News... And More... All For The Love Of The Game" ------------------------------------------------------------ To SUBSCRIBE visit: http://www.gophercentral.com/sub/sub-golf.html Subscribe ------------------------------------------------------------ Greetings Today's Golf reader, A long day on the links also calls for a long day of lugging around your equipment. Not only will you be toting a full golf bag, you'll likely carry spare golf balls and tees in your pockets. And with your car keys, cell phone, wallet and other personal items, your pants will start to sag... and so will your swing. But now you can get rid of all that pocket clutter and have it all neatly organized in a handcrafted, genuine leather fanny pack. Durable, stylish and functional, there's room for just about anything you need to bring with you during your next golf outing. It's also a great luxury for going on trips or everyday use. The leather fanny pack comes with a special click n' lock buckle and is adjustable up to 42". You've seen these in stores for as much as $29.99... With us, it's only $14.99... or JUST $9.99 when you buy two or more. To see a picture or to order, VISIT: Genuine Leather Fanny Pack Now, on with today's issue of Today's Golf... Sincerely, Your Today's Golf editor IN THIS ISSUE: 1. ASK THE PRO 2. IT'S GOOD FOR YOUR GAME - basic tools of the trade 3. THE GOLF DOCTOR - Lack of an advice Śgatekeeperą turning a Tiger into a frog ASK THE PRO Q: I'm a former LPGA Tour player who is now teaching in the Sun Country Section of the PGA. I've always been a good ball striker, but in studying video of my swing, I am unnerved by the fact that I "give-up" my flat left wrist immediately after impact. I'd like to retain this position longer in order to avoid an occasional pre- impact breakdown that results in adding loft to the club face and hitting it too high. This mistake costs me about five yards in distance. I know this does not give you much to go on, but do you have any suggestions? ‹ C.W., from the Web A: I've seen this problem many times, and often the cause can be traced to the right knee. All good ball strikers have a separation between their knees (some more than others) as they start back to the ball, but sometimes the right knee is "late" in closing the gap through the hitting area. This slight "hang back" slows your body rotation, forcing the club head to "pass" the hands a little too soon (and thus, the early breakdown of the left wrist). Study your video again and make sure your right knee has folded in toward your left knee by impact. I teach this position because it lets your right shoulder lower slightly and keeps you swinging "under" the ball. Thus you can retain a bent right wrist/flat left wrist combo until well after the ball has separated from the club face. ------------------------------------------------------------ Succeed In Your Weight Loss Goals Need a little help losing a few extra pounds?

Enjoy... http://ads.gophercentral.com/al/a?aid=383&ent=1823 Your Diet Survey ------------------------------------------------------------ IT'S GOOD FOR YOUR GAME basic tools of the trade To play the game of golf, a player will need a set of golf clubs, golf balls and a lot of patience. There are many varieties of golf clubs to choose from, and beginning players should make themselves aware of the choices avail- able. Price ranges and quality are two important factors when purchasing golf clubs. As a beginner, it's not a good idea to run out and spend a fortune on new clubs and equip- ment only to find out that you can't stand the game. Borrow a friend's set to begin with, and as your game improves, consider purchasing a set that's right for you. If you've already tried golf and decided that it's a sport you would like to continue, start with an intermediate set of clubs that suits your level of play. Golf shoes will help you with traction on the grass or mats at the driving range, but are not mandatory to learn the game. Below are the basic components that make up a set of golf clubs. the driver This club is primarily used for teeing off on holes of long distances, Par 4's and Par 5's. It is a steeply faced club with not much loft, designed to drive the golf ball long distances at a comparatively low trajectory, also referred to as the 1-Wood. The "wood" description is a bit of a misnomer since most of today's club manufacturers build their clubs out of such materials as Graphite, Kevlar, Steel, or Titanium. This club is affectionately known as the "Big Dog" and is the largest club in the bag. fairway woods These clubs are primarily used for hitting from the fairway, typically on Par 4's or Par 5's, where there is a significant distance to the green after the drive. The numbers for these clubs are usually 3, 4 and 5, each increasing in degree of loft as the number goes up. The 3-Wood is often used off the tee when accuracy is a must and distance is not important. Like the irons, a higher number club will be more accurate; a lower number club will hit the ball longer in distance. irons There are three categories that we'll use to describe the irons. First, there are the "long irons": numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4. These clubs are used for long distances anywhere from 180-250 yards. Next, there are the "middle irons," which include numbers 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. These clubs will be used for middle distances of 130-180 yards. Finally, we have the short irons that include the pitching wedge, sand wedge and lob wedge. These clubs will be used for short distances of 130 yards or less. These "utility" clubs, as they are sometimes called, are lofted clubs that cause the ball to have a high trajectory and thus allow the ball to land softly without much roll. These clubs are also used around the green for pitching, getting out of sand traps, and for golf shots that require creativity. the putter The putter is a flat-faced club primarily used on the putting green for putting the ball into the cup. It can also be used when the ball rests just off the green, and the path to the hole is not obstructed. ------------------------------------------------------------ Pack Your Bags - GopherCentral Is Taking You On Vacation Introducing Travel Freebies If you like to travel but don't always have the funds to do so, the editors at GopherCentral have put together this great newsletter to provide the everyday traveler with great deals and offers to help you save $$thousands$$.

There can be no denying that Tiger's game is not up to his past standards. A look at his ranking in the Ball Strik- ing category on the PGA Tour, which combines Greens in Regulation and Total Driving (distance and accuracy), tells the story. In 1997 (his first year on tour), Tiger was fourth and for the next three years he was ranked first. He is cur- rently 28th. The explanations are varied, including: dumping his coach, Butch Harmon; an injured knee; changing his body build by working out; falling in love with a Swedish model; switching clubs. But in my opinion, Tiger's swing has gotten worse since he's been listening to his friend Mark O'Meara, who claims that he's "just a set of eyes." Unfortunately, with every set of eyes comes a mouth. There are a thousand things you can say to a good player that hurts him, and only about two things that will help. It's ironic that the best player in the world has fallen prey to the same error made by high-handicappers, i.e., taking advice from a buddy he practices and plays with. Granted, O'Meara is a good player, but he's not a teacher, and Tiger is making a big mistake listening to his unedited feedback: Loose lips unsync golf swings. For most of his golfing life, Tiger had what every great champion needs ‹ a gatekeeper. First it was his father, Earl, then it was Butch Harmon, both of whom acted as a filter to prevent Tiger from listening to competing theories. The presence of a gatekeeper to whom you are doggedly committed protects your golf game from just plain bad advice, as well as from good advice that doesn't apply to you. Many a golfing prince has turned into a frog without an effective gatekeeper. So don't make the same mistake as Tiger. A major part of being as good as you can be at golf is knowing when you have "it," knowing what it is you have, and then knowing how to get it back once it's gone. It is a golfing truism: Once you get it, you'll keep it longer and get it back sooner if you have a gatekeeper. ------------------------------------------------------------ Questions? Comments?

As the smiling Korean woman processed our tickets, my wife asked, "Are they good seats?" "They are very good seats," the airline worker replied. "You will be sitting next to a handsome gentleman, and your com- panion will be seated beside a beautiful lady." *-------------- Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes ---------------* A fellow is getting ready to tee-off on the first hole when a second fellow approaches and asks if he can join him. The first says that he usually plays alone but agrees to let the second guy join him. Both are even after the first couple of holes. The second guy says, "Say, we're about evenly matched, how about we play for five bucks a hole?" The first fellow says that he usually plays alone and doesn't like to bet but agrees to the terms. Well, the second guy wins the rest of the holes and as they're walking off of the eighteenth hole, and while counting his $80.00, he confesses that he's the pro at a neighboring course and likes to pick on suckers. The first fellow reveals that he's the Parish Priest at the local Catholic Church to which the second fellow gets all flustered and apologetic and offers to give the Priest back his money. The Priest says, "No, no. You won fair and square and I was foolish to bet with you. You keep your winnings." The pro says, "Well, is there anything I can do to make it up to you?" The Priest says, "Well, you could come to Mass on Sunday and make a donation. Then, if you bring your mother and father by after Mass, I'll marry them for you." _____________________________________________________________ W H Y D I D T H E C O W B O Y B U Y A D A C H S H U N D?
