Show notes

During Mike's Course - Mike & Billy discuss the upcoming Straight Down Fall Classic and the challenges the golf industry faces not only economically but also with resources such as water. Introducing Acculength, the only custom fit Junior clubs that grow with your child. Most juniors develop their swings using faulty equipment that leads to life long swing flaws. Historically, kids learned the game with adult clubs that were cut down to junior size, but were still way too heavy and unbalanced which made learning the game difficult for even the most athletic kids.Accu-Length's Custom Fit System Makes Learning the Game EasyPGA teaching professionals agree that a correctly fitted club is the most important factor in a junior golfer's development. It provides them a better chance to get the ball airborne consistently and is critical to proper swing motion.Custom fit for length, weight, and balanceNo transition between sets – your child will learn the game using only one set, saving you money and speeding up the learning processOne set – 5 seasons, think of the money you'll save!Top of the line materials provide high performance and durability for years of enjoyable useEasy to hit irons and wood make learning fast and easyLightweight and durable stand bag is comfortable to carry so your child can play 18 holes and be ready for moreSimple to use spacers make expanding clubs a breezehttp://www.clubsthatgrow.comEnter "ESPN" in the Promo Code Section at check out and receive a FREE Driver!Mike & Billy play the GTR golf trivia game Driver of the Day sponsored by Golflandwarehouse - www.golflandwarehouse.com.

Golf Talk Radio M&B - 10.24.2009 - Brian Benedictson - Swinkeygolf.com - GTR Trivia - Hour 1 Oct 24, 2009

Show notes

The Goal with the Swinkey was to design to most efficient golf training tool available. What makes the most efficient golf training tool? I believe that the fairest answer to that question is that it must be the sort of golf training aid that has the best impact on your golf game. It would be a training tool that produces the best results in terms of improvement in your golf game over the shortest period of time.There are many good training tools out there. There are aids that help you with your full swing, your putting, short game, swing plane, power, fitness, flexibility, setup, etc. Each of them have a purpose in helping a person's game and it depends on the individuals game in deciding which one to purchase and use. Some want more power, some want to work on their setup, others want to improve their putting. So to answer the question, what would be the best training aid out there it would depend on the individual and what area they need the most improvement. If someone is struggling with their putting then a putting training would be their best bet. If someone lacked power then they would want a weighted swing club. A problem with this is as you know a person's game will change over time. For a month their putting is the part of their game suffering and then their setup goes and their putting improves. Then they might want to purchase something that helps their setup. You can see the issue here. The training aids out there today work for only one part of your game.I had a half dozen different training aids and it was too much to take them all with me when I went to the course. This is where the idea of the Swinkey came to me. The golfing world needed a training tool that applied to all aspects of your game. Not just one. I designed the Swinkey with total game improvement in mind so it's functions include fitness, swing training, swing setup, short game, putting setup and stroke training, and protection of your clubs in travel.I think you would agree that the best golf training aid is one that leads to the biggest improvement in the shortest amount of time for all golfers. The Swinkey is that tool. As a tour professional I have seen every training aid out there and even though my opinion may be biased as I am the inventor I believe the Swinkey to be the best training tool out there. Get a Swinkey and find out for yourself.Brian Benedictsonwww.swinkeygolf.comMike & Billy also play the GTR golf trivia game Make the Call You & Driver of the Day!Avila Beach Golf Resort - www.avilabeachresort.com Blacklake Golf Resort - www.blacklake.comInn at Avila Beach - www.avilabeachca.comAvila LaFonda Hotel - www.avilalafondahotel.comGolfland Warehouse - www.golflandwarehouse.comSlickstix - www.slickstix.comFor more information on Golf Talk Radio with Mike & Billy visit www.golftalkradio.com and visit www.centralcoasttoday.com for Golf Talk TV with Mike & Billy.

Show notes

S-Blade Putters - Matt PhillipsPATENTED TECHNOLOGYThe Spherical Blade putters, known as "S-Blade", are both USGA and R&A rules-compliant and patented in the UK with patents pending in Europe, USA and Japan. The putters look conventional, but crucially, the face is very gently spherical in shape.The radius of the 'north-south' convex curve is precisely measured to ensure the point of impact on the ball is always just above its mid-point, or equator.This means the putter always impacts the top half of the ball to ensure immediate top over bottom roll. Ever since Ivor Thom designed the original S-Blade putter, "putting accuracy first" has been the guiding principle of Spherical Blade. Now, the unique, patented, spherical face of the S-Blade and its unrivalled performance benefits are perfectly complemented by style and finish.The Spherical Blade putters, known as "S-Blade", are R&A rules-compliant and patented in the UK with patents pending in Europe, USA and Japan. The putters look conventional, but crucially, the face is very gently...

Beginning in 1977, he and his research partner, Carl Welty, pioneered the use of video in analyzing the swings of both professional and amateur golfers.www.jimmclean.comEric returns unannounced with his Top 5 after a 6-month or so layoff...it get's interesting.GolfRingliterally creates a ring around the hole to give you a larger, more realistic target. The GolfRing is made of a revolutionary material that is very durable and is so flexible that it follows the terrain of the green and in no way impedes the ball in its path towards the hole. When placed on the green it creates a target that enhances visualization towards the pin by defining the area around the hole. The GolfRing weighs less than 8 ounces, is extremely portable and is 6 feet in diameter when in use. When not in use, it easily folds down to an 18" small ring and conveniently fits inside the large pocket of your golf bag or it can hang on the outside of your golf bag.The GolfRing was developed by an attentive dad for his 5-year-old son who asked one day, "Dad show me what three feet from the pin looks like." His dad searched for a practice aid to accomplish this with no luck. Drawing upon his manufacturing resources enabled him to develop the perfect visual practice aid. The GolfRing improved the boy's short game by providing him a visual target around the hole. That little boy is now a two-time U.S Kids Southern Ohio champion and competed the past two years in the U.S. Kids World Championship. Although The GolfRing was created by one dad for one son, a friend with two golfing sons saw something bigger. They went on to start a company they envisioned could help every golfer of every level improve their short game and even making it fun. In the mean time two of the three boys went on to qualify for the U.S. Kids Regional Championship in 2007 and U.S. Kids Europe. That's when the two dads knew they were on to something big and they were off and running with the best practice aid to hit the game in a long time. The GolfRing is being used by some of the biggest names in golf every time they practice.www.thegolfring.comAvila Beach Golf Resort - www.avilabeachresort.com Blacklake Golf Resort - www.blacklake.comInn at Avila Beach - www.avilabeachca.comAvila LaFonda Hotel - www.avilalafondahotel.comGolfland Warehouse - www.golflandwarehouse.comSlickstix - www.slickstix.comFor more information on Golf Talk Radio with Mike & Billy visit www.golftalkradio.com and visit www.centralcoasttoday.com for Golf Talk TV with Mike & Billy.
