Last Week on the tours:

Well, The Tour Championship did not do much to settle the player of the year debate, but it was the venue for Chad Campbell's first PGA Tour win. A ten under 61 on Saturday allowed him to cruise to victory over the top thirty players on tour this year.

Vijay Singh's top five finish gave him the money title by almost a million dollars over Tiger Woods who finished 26th and did not shoot one round in the sixties. Davis Love, Jim Furyk, and Kenny Perry, were the only other player of the year candidates to finish in the top ten.

Singh would normally be a lock for player of the year finishing at the top of the money list, but he also plays more than any of the other contenders. Woods has by far the best money per tournaments played, and with his five wins, will likely be player of the year once again. The other contenders needed to win to be considered.

Unfortunately, the best players are often mentally drained by the Tour Championship and often some of the newcomers rise up to win. This year saw Chad Campbell, Chris Riley, and Jonathan Kaye show their stuff.

Quote/Joke of the week:

"The great thing about starting golf in your forties is that you can start golf in your forties. You can start other things in your forties but generally your wife makes you stop them, as Bill Clinton found out."

- P.J. O'Rourke


Tip of the week:

Hooking and Slicing:

Hooking is caused by the clubface rotating over the ball at impact. Often this is caused by too much hand action through the ball, and/or coming too much from the inside and flipping the club. The more closed your stance, the greater the chance of hooking the ball. So if you want to hook, do the above, if not try opening your stance a bit and taking the club back more upright than around your body. Gripping the club a little firmer can also help to get rid of the hook.

A slice is caused by the club glancing off the inside of the ball. It is most often caused by gripping the club too tight, and coming at the ball from outside to in. To cure a slice you want to take the club back more inside or around your body, close your stance slightly, keep your elbows closer to your body, and loosen up your grip.



Testimonial:

"I have used at least seven different gadgets to improve my golf swing. I have managed to reduce my handicap by 4 over the 6 years I have used these things. They usually end up in the closet. The LowerScores Manual is different. It helped me understand what it takes to score on the golf course. In one season I lowered my handicap by four more."

Dean, Florida


Golf equipment and training aids:

  • The best golf equipment does not have to break the bank. I use clone golf clubs from Pinemeadow Golf, and I have used many name brands. Custom clubs that fit your game is the way to go.
  • The best site I have seen for golf fitness is here for having the most golf specific programs for all season. There are also great pre-game stretching routines. Too many people neglect the stretching and fitness components of golf and it can really affect your scores. Use every advantage you can go to Golf Fitness now.

 

  •   As seen on the Golf Channel and major magazines.

  •   This revolutionary program will train your mind to better golf in minutes! Justin Leonard and Roger Clemens know.

 

Using Self-Hypnosis to improve your game on the course is something every tour pro does even if they do not know it. Here is a classic book that will show you how you have already used it, and how you can use it to your advantage.
