Golf Cart

December 1, 2009 By ama Leave a Comment

While many people think that golfing isn’t truly golf unless you walk the course, the actuality is that some folk just can’t do that.  That’s where golf carts turn out to be handy.  This writer personally will not play golfing very often without the benefit of a golfing cart, but that is’s just my preference I tend to be a little lazy.  But with the new golfing carts that are out today, they actually can make golfing a little more enjoyable. 

Besides not being made to haul your golf bag around with you, the golf cart can also help you avoid fatigue and carry along a cooler of nibbles, soda, or beer together with you if that is what you want to do when you golf.  You can also get a good rest on a warm day when you use a golf cart to navigate the course.

Varsity golf coach receives sentimental gift of players’ voices for 65th birthday

December 1, 2009 By ama Leave a Comment

When Ronnie Reed, a varsity golf coach, bid farewell to his seniors at his team’s end of year award ceremony, it also happened to be his 65th birthday. On that eventful day, he received a thoughtful 65th birthday group gift that was far more meaningful than any golf plaque his players or fellow coaches could ever give him. He received a keepsake CD filled with the voices of his colleagues, his graduating players, and their parents, expressing their thanks and warm wishes. The recordings ranged from funny to sentimental, and demonstrated to him what he had meant to his players.

“I go out there and urge my players to make me proud every day. I’ve always focused on the team, and when they gave me this gift it made it clear how much my philosophy meant to them personally”.

Choosing The Right Golf Holiday Tour

December 1, 2009 By ama Leave a Comment

You may be considering a golf travel package and hoping to reserve some time at one of the many great golf destinations in the U.S. or possibly an international location.  It is best to compare prices of the various packages online first.

Many of the golf resorts will also have meeting or conference rooms available for your group. Of course, no golf travel package is complete without tee times reserved at some of the top rated courses in the world.  A corporate package will include group discounts.  The more people the less it is per person.  You will also want to inquire about special discount offers for your golf travel package such as discount vouchers for greens fees at other local courses, car rentals and meals.

The Jump Manual – How To Add 10 Inches To Your Vertical

November 30, 2009 By ama Leave a Comment

The Jump Manual takes a scientific approach to “vertical explosion” instruction. Current studies have shown that effectively training every aspect of the vertical leap is the only way to get the maximum results.

The author states that there are 9 separate improvable aspects by which you can improve your vertical explosion and quickness. Would your choice be to pursue one or two–or all nine? This may sound like a rhetorical question, but the truth is most programs simply aim for one or two of these aspects. The Jump Manual is the only program to target all of the aspects of vertical jump explosion and quickness. Targeting every individual part allows for results to be achieved more quickly. The cumulative result of training each aspect produces far better results.

Sun Powers Golf?

November 28, 2009 By ama Leave a Comment

If you are a golf player and are starting to feel the aches and pains of old age then you must know how difficult it is to walk the course with a golf trolley. Many people would like to use a battery powered golf trolley but feel there are better things to spend their money on than constantly getting golf batteries and of course 12v batteries.

On top of this there are actually many other reasons for the golf trolley being a bit of a problem. A big problem is that many people go to bed and forget to stick the thing on charge which of course means they hit a major problem when they go to play golf the next day! Sometimes it just cannot be done and the older people may have to stop a golf game just because they havent got their electric trolley charged up.
