Count on Tiger woods to end a so called slump in style. He lapped the field in Tiger fashion at The Western Open. Rich Beem went low and still could only get within 5 of a Tiger who was finally making some putts. On the women's tour everybody was just trying to survive on the difficult Pumpkin Ridge setup. In spite of being over par, the leaders Hillary Lunke and Angela Stanford held on to end in a tie with Kelly Robbins (one of the few under par for the day). Annika Sorenstam struggled with the flu and her putter to finish one behind the leaders. Tomorrow the three leaders will tee it up for a full 18 hole playoff.

"I used to play golf with a guy who cheated so badly that he once had a hole-in-one and wrote down zero on his scorecard." -Bob Bruce Hitting the ground before the ball: Hitting the ground before the ball, or "fat shots" is a very common problem that can lead to injury. This is caused by either coming into the ball too steeply, and or decelerating the club head as you hit the ball. Proper weight shift is important (see tips page) and keeping your right shoulder back on the downswing (opposite for left handers) is crucial. There is a tendency to throw the right shoulder ahead as you come down creating an outside in steep club path. Focus on swinging more around your body to remedy this. A good drill is to strap your upper arms to your body and hit balls. This makes it impossible to throw the shoulder forward. Don't
forget to accelerate through the ball. When you slow down at the
bottom of your swing, you will hit it fat every time. Equipment:
Don't necessarily get caught up in thinking you must have name brand clubs. Good quality clones are often made in the same factories with the same materials, can be customized, and are considerably less expensive. At Pine Meadow Golf you can get drivers that only have different printing on them, for $49-$99, steel and titanium. You probably are using a clone computer, which is the same kind of thing. For a good overview of the differences and the best deals on factory-direct golf clubs go to Pine Meadow Golf. I use a driver from PineMeadow and I could use any equipment I want. Buy a club from them, try it out and if you don't find that it is as good as any name brand club send it back. They don't get many returns, and they offer great service to match the low prices Testimonial: "I was very sceptical about the possibility of a short manual making a difference in my golf game. I thought you needed to physically work with a teacher to improve. My friend suggested I get the manual and I tried only two of the strategies in it. What I learned was that scoring is not only physical, and by making two small strategic changes I was able to lower my scores immediately by four strokes. The first round I played was four shots better than my average, and every round since then has been at least four shots better. I am going to start using some of the other eight strategies right away." Chris, Arizona
Have Arthritis or Joint Pain? Don't settle for the dangerous side effects of COX-2 inhibitors and NSAIDs. They only treat the pain and do nothing to fight the Arthritis itself. If you or your pet has arthritis, I highly recommend Syn-Flex. The fast-acting high quality liquid formula of Syn-Flex eases your pain, rebuilds your damaged cartilage, protects your joints, and increases mobility. Click here to learn more and get relief from pain. I was unable to work out or play golf without debilitating pain in my shoulders, back, and hips, until Syn-Flex came along. I think it is the best glucosamine/condroitin product on the market.
