TRIVIA ANSWERS
1) Jack Nicklaus, considered by many critics
to be the greatest golfer of all time, was known as "The Golden
Bear". During his 43 year career, Nicklaus accumulated 73 PGA Tour
victories as well as 10 Senior PGA Tour victories. He was PGA Player
of the Year five times, and top money-winner eight times. His
rivalry with Arnold Palmer is often credited with turning golf into
the major spectator sport that it is today. In 1988, Nicklaus was
named "Golfer of the Century" by GOLF Magazine.
2) On September 6, 2004,
Vijay Singh replaced Tiger Woods at the top of the Official
World Golf Rankings, ending Woods' reign of more than five years
(264 weeks). Singh won nine tournaments during the 2004 season,
a career-best, and was named the 2004 PGA Tour Player of the
Year.

Handicap
info from Roger McKee |
Course Rating
vs. Slope
I don’t know about you, but I am
always getting confused between Slope and
Rating. I know that slope is used to calculate
your handicap as you go from one course to
another. If that’s the case, why bother with a
rating?
It
might help to start with the reason “Slope” was
created. According to
Dean Knuth:

Hey
Swing Doc |
Most golfers attempt
to control the collision between the clubface and
ball by thinking about hitting the golf ball. When
I write most golfers, I mean about 90% of all
amatuer golfers hit at the golf ball. One of the
most vexing and confusing concepts for amatuer
golfers to understand and accept is that successful
golfers are NOT trying to hit the ball, but
attempting to swing the club at the target down the
fairway, or green or hole. The rule of thumb for
the good amatuer or touring professional is to swing
to the target where they ultimately want the ball to
go to. The ball is not the target, the hole, flag,
or fairway is. Swing your club to the real target
and good things will happen.

A Poem from
Mark Worden - a Men's Club Member |
Pronation
"The latest Swing Thought"
by
Mark Worden
Golfer's striving to improve,
Grab onto anything,
They think will help them hit the groove,
And straighten out their swing.
Instruction
keys in years gone by,
Were lift your heel, swing slow,
Keep down your head, and keep your eye,
Behind the ball, stay low.
