Golf pros give tips to junior golfers

After waiting his turn in line, William Robinson was anxious to take his first cuts at the game of golf. He had watched Champions Tour players Chip Beck and Bobby Clampett hit long, soaring tee shots and watched as the pros had hit a variety of shots with great command. Robinson was surrounded by lots of others who were new to golf Sunday at the Bacot/McCarty Foundation- IP Resort and Spa Junior Clinic at Shell Landing Sunday afternoon. It is a first-year junior golf tournaments event that served to kick off the week of activities for the Champions Tour's Mississippi Gulf Resort Classic to be played at Fallen Oak Golf Club this week. "This is a special day, obviously, the Sunday before tournament week," tournament director Steve Nieman said. "The idea all along was how we could involve Jackson County -- the kids of Jackson County, the businesses of Jackson County -- to really illustrate what we've been talking about all along, which is this isn't just about one town along the Gulf Coast, it's about the entire coast here in Mississippi. Bringing kids in here all from all over Jackson County and with Chip san diego and golf schools and Bobby here, I think the kids are going to have a great day." "I think it's important that we have it over here in Jackson County, both to show our kids over here that maybe hear about the phenomena about the Jolly McCarty Memorial (golf tournament) and all the monies it raises, but also to show that the Mississippi Gulf Resort Classic is a Gulf Coast-wide event. It's not just a Harrison County or Fallen Oak event; it's a lot of courses, a lot of professionals, a lot of people coming together to support the game of golf."

It's a great challenge."Jack said that while he definitely wanted to become this year's "junior Tiger", he also aspired to become a Tiger Woods of the golfing green in his adult life - by playing golf professionally.Jack's father Sean Crowe said his son has been interested in golf since seeing Tiger Woods Tommy Biershenk Talk With His Golf Life on television when he was 5.

North Kit sap’s Troy improves his golf game by travelling

The North Kitsap senior had just come off the course after shooting a 1-under 35, and he didn't look like he was in any hurry to leave."When I'm out there I feel so relaxed and away from the world," he said. "I'm just alone in my passion. It's something I like to do. I just love everything about it."He didn't fall in love with golf until he was 13, which is when he started hitting balls and hanging around the putting green until it got dark."I used to just dink around with it," he said. "I hit a few shots at the range every summer, but nothing serious. I played baseball and junior golf tournaments basketball, but I was never really that good. I wanted to find another sport I was actually good at. My dad said, 'Why don't you try golf seriously?'"Means turned out to be a bit of a natural. He went from shooting high 90s to the mid-80s in the summer after eighth grade. He broke 80 in September of that year, and kept going lower and lower. About 18 months after getting serious about it, he was scoring in the 70s at the Kitsap Golf & Country Club. His said his game improved dramatically, mainly in the short-game area, and his handicap dropped from a 6 to a 2. Looking back, he questions if it was worth the "ridiculous The Contract Of Golf Professionals Is Under Discussion amount of money," his parents spent to send him to the shores of the Atlantic Ocean."It was like $50, 000," he said. "I mean, it was a good experience but it would have been cheaper to work with a coach here.” The Means are originally from southern California and wanted to move back. Mike and Troy made the move, but returned from California in the summer because Corrine couldn't find a teaching job down south."It would have been nice to stay at one school, to stay with friends," Troy said. "But I had a good time at each of my schools. It was a lot of fun in California, a lot of fun at Central Kitsap and I'm having a lot of fun at North. It's nice to meet new people."

And “with the addition of Lincoln, a solid team with a golf pro as their coach, the Metro League has only gotten tougher.”“I’d have to say that Southridge is the favorite this year,” said Jesuit coach Jay Minsker. “We struggled late last year, and they Webb Wins LPGA Founders Cup were one of the best teams in the state and they didn’t get to go” to state.“Southridge is the best team in the league. (It) is stacked experienced players,” said Westview coach Forbes Robinson. “I think they could sweep every Metro tournament this year.

I tried doing Tae Kwan Do and tennis with my kids both worked out well for a while. Then I got tired of the bruises from the karate class, so we looked into Golf. With golf we can play together in a relaxed manner.

Titleist Golf Ball Fitting: distance is important

"Distance is king to most consumers," says John Fizer, a member of the East Coast Titleist Performance Golf Ball Fitting team. "Even after we explain to them that all Titleist golf balls are long at all swing speeds, and land within 3-4 yards of each other, many people still think they will hit one 10 yards longer."Differences between models off the driver for Casey Forestalls In Transitions Championship swing speeds ranging from tour players (near 110 mph) down to lower speed players (in the 80s mph) are less than four yards.Game-changing distance is potentially obtainable through physical fitness, swing improvements and club fitting – but not the golf ball that you choose to play.Titleist's green-to-tee methodology is based on the fact that most scoring pub golf rules opportunities are created by shots into the target, and improving your short game will have the most game-changing affects.Whether you are a professional or an amateur, shorter putts go in more often. Hitting the ball closer to the pin with more consistency will lower your score.

How to choose the right Titleist golf balls

Titleist golf balls have been known for many years as ‘The Number 1 Ball in Golf’ and it is true that more tour players across the world use a Titleist ball. Some golfers think that if Ernie Els is playing with a Titleist then they should play with a Titleist pub golf rules as well, however, that is not necessarily the case. Believe it or not in amongst this huge selection there is the right ball for you and the ball you choose to play with needs to suit your requirements and level of skill.If you are a beginner, or lose a lot of golf balls, then buying budget balls is the best thing to do. These are often packaged in 15 ball boxes and are a hard durable ball that will generally go further when you hit them. The draw back of this ball is that it is very lively off of the club face and when it comes Nick Watney Win Golf’s Cadillac Championship to chipping and putting can lack some of the soft feel that some golfers prefer.

These balls are not as hard as the budget type, but are durable and offer some feel around the green although they still won.t stop very quickly on landing.

Make Your Golf Ball a Difference

Not every new ball that comes out can be longer and better than the one before, right? Especially since all are subject to the same U.S. Golf Association limitations on distance and other flight characteristics. But there are lots of ways, Ishii said, to engineer different spin, feel and trajectory combinations so that individual players can find a ball that flies Golf Swing Instruction You Should Know the longest, or otherwise performs the best, for them. For the pros, who know their games so well and hit the ball so consistently, this process is mostly about managing trade-offs.It differs from the standard One Tour D ball only in that it produces a minuscule extra amount of spin around the greens—at the cost of an equally minuscule loss of distance off the tee. "Tiger can tell the difference, because he talks about differences of just a few inches, 6 inches, in how far his short wedge shots go, but not many other people can, even other pros," Ishii said. The third Nike ball pub golf rules used by Tour players, the regular One Tour, has two "custom spec" versions, but to offer all these variations for sale in pro shops would needlessly confuse consumers, Ishii said."Changing balls is much harder than changing clubs," said Anthony Kim, who's been playing the 20IX-S since December. (The 20IX line won't be available in stores until late April.) "With a new driver, that's basically just one shot you have to understand. But a new ball affects all 14 clubs in your bag, and you have to have confidence in how each of those clubs are going to play."

What do you think Titleist victory over Callaway

Chalk up another win for the Titleist Pro V1 golf ball - this one off the course. In another victory for Titleist parent Acushnet Company in its long-running patent dispute with Callaway Golf, the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences of the United Golf Swing Instruction You Should Know States Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) affirmed the patent examiner’s decision that the claims of four Callaway Golf patents are invalid. The Acushnet Company requested that the PTO reexamine the four patents in January 2006. Callaway filed a lawsuit in February 2006 asserting that Acushnet’s Titleist Pro V1 golf balls infringed certain claims of those patents. In March 2010, a jury determined that all four patents were invalid as obvious and anticipated.Callaway, of course, sees things different. The company issued a statement saying it belives the Patent Office "got the decision wrong'' and did not have the authority to decide the validity of the patents."As the federal pub golf rules court in Delaware has already ruled, Acushnet breached its contract with Callaway Golf by asking the Patent Office to reexamine the validity of the patents,'' the statement said. "If necessary, we will appeal the decision to the Federal Circuit. The validity of the patents is currently being considered independently in the only appropriate forum, the federal court in Delaware, so the decision from the Patent Office does not end the case.”

Different ways to find the nice golf ball

Zach Johnson, who has a locker with his name on it at Augusta National, talked with Titleist representatives before the start of the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship about changing from the 2009 version of the Titleist Pro V1x to the Tiger Woods are Making Progress just-released 2011 model.According to Titleist, the dimples on the new Pro V1x are shallower and arranged in a new pattern that helps it fly higher and reach its highest point farther down range.

So for me, it was just if I could putt with it and the feel I had with the longer putts and how I could spin it around the greens."

Brickyard VFX Scores an Ace for Titleist's "Leadership 2011" Campaign

"Stats" showcases the technical side of golf through graphical representations of real-time golf game data, including drive accuracy, sand saves, ball strikes, approach accuracy, greens in regulation and proximity to hole. Brickyard collaborated with Arnold from Succeed in Telkom PGA the very beginning, and the team was heavily involved in the design and look development process.Another challenge came on "Split Second," which shows - in slow motion - what happens to a Titleist golf ball as it is hit. Senior VFX Producer Amy Appleton explains, "We shot a reference on a Photron camera running at 30,000 frames per second. This camera shoots a very compressed image; much too small for broadcast. Brickyard's task was to take the broadcast quality Phantom shot and composite all the elements to convey exactly what happens to a Titleist ball when the club makes contact."Brickyard also created the end tags from stills of the Titleist print campaign. Through the use of geometry, the team was able to map and project the Titleist balls and packaging into a photoreal, 3D space. They then lit and animated the packages, including animating the holograms on the boxes.
