Golf is a heaven-sent sports tailored-fit for executives who tries to find an outlet to unleash espceailly from their rigid environment. What's not to love about golf? It relaxes your mind, gives you focus and the ultimate freedom when you swing. The grass county is also a relieving atmosphere after your four-cornered office walls.
For the corporate tribe, golf is not just another sports activity or a pleasure jive but a way to persuade elusive business counterparts. More deals are made on golf courses than what actually transpires on the conference rooms. Perhaps, the swing and fling or air accounts for a little crack for possibilities and opportunities to even change their minds.
Mr. S, that's what we call him, short for success, is a good friend of mine. He used the same tactic for years now and he garners an impressive turn out in sales, marketing and advertising. But just last year, Mr. S had this British gentleman to lure with his bait. He's done every move. He dined and wined with him and his family, even played golf, treated him like royalty and researched more and more just to please.
But with his desperate acts, he remained all the more desperate. He was about to quit, the British counterpart is set to leave. We were shopping for golf balls when he saw this Nike Mojo Golf Ball. He was fascinated with this "Karma" ball, the only grey piece without prints out of a dozen set. It has 432 mirror dimples and an alluring cover. He decided that it could be a good token considering that it is a high performance golf ball that can pitch high, straight and far with core of high energy and low compression.
He personalized a dozen balls with the title "The British Gentleman" in stylish tinge of blue. He sent it and voila! After two days, he received a copy of the contract deal. Mr. S striked a deal with Nike Mojo Golf Balls!

Have you ever heard of irradiated golf balls? Honestly speaking, I have not seen this type of ball whose shape is kinda distorted due to the effects of rays called gamma on a long term basis. This ball seems to be the result of radiation's ravages produced a long time ago. I am not certain if I can still play golf using this type of ball. We are all aware that golf is one of the most relaxing sports today. But with this type of ball, will it still be that relaxing?
Well, purportedly this irradiated ball sports a longer life and drive as well. This is because Co-60 treatment from the rays of gamma. As a result, the radiation might have influenced or affected the ball's longer life. It is also interesting and shocking to note that this type of ball is the most expensive and the best US made golf ball nowadays. The distorted shape might be attributed to the winding tension's irradiation assuming that a ball like this utilizes a winding instead of a core that is solid. There is no wonder then that this process is contributory to the ball's longer drive and life. I guess, I also have that winning advantage using this ball. After it all, it is not the ball that matters alone, but the over all performance of golf aficionados like me.

 Let's face it, golf is not a cheap sport. It's not something that you can do in the sanctuary of your backyards. Yes, you can putt in a hole or two, but that's basically it. Golf is the real thing. It's played on real, well-maintained, green, trimmed acres of grass. So, where am I getting at here? Well, if it's not a cheap sport, it might as well doesn't have cheap toys.
The most common thing is golf is the golf club and the golf ball. We all know that a golfer takes hold of the golf club. What about the golf ball or the golf balls? Every time you practice that perfect swing, you hit on the ball and it's off. Suddenly you lose sight of the ball. You look for your ball and you see millions of them on the ground. Where the hell is yours? I know how to distinguish my ball from the rest of the misplaced balls in the golf course.
Before I hit for the golf courses, I have my golf balls personalized. You heard me right! My balls have my name on them. As I have said, golf is not a cheap sport. If you're passionate about the game but, not too passionate with money then I suggest you do the same thing. Have your golf balls personalized. So, every time you hit on that ball you'll be sure to get them back. You don't have to worry about constantly replacing them because you just lost your newest ones. So, swing away and don't worry about tomorrow!

Golf is a game of pride. After all, isn't the object of the game to put a small ball into a small hole with as little strokes as possible?

Playing golf is a fun game, but imagine how much fun it would be if the golf ball were smooth, like a billiard ball. Can you? The result would be a definite increase in your handicap. A smooth ball simply won't travel as far or as high as a golf ball replete with dimples.
Those dimples you see and feel on a golf ball greatly add to its aerodynamic profile. Those dimples will add lift and flight, making the ball travel farther and higher. And even the depth of these dimples can affect the performance of the ball. The deeper the dimples, the lower its trajectory, i.e. it flies at a lower height than a normal golf ball. And for the record, a regular golf ball can have as many as 350 to 500 dimples.

Many of us remember John Daly's victory at the 2004 Buick Invitational during the 2004 PGA tour season, and the balls that he used to win that tourney intrigued many. They were special urethane balls made by Dunlop that were not available to the general public then, and when he won, the public was soon clamoring for their own balls.
The balls, called LoCo Pro by Dunlop, are designed for more distance from the tee and soft feel for the approach shots on the green. The Soft urethane covering, combined with a DuPont Ionomer mantle and a firm compression Polybutadiene core combine to provide high initial velocity and low spin from the tee, adding distance to the initial shot.

The Bridgestone Tour 330 is a ball that is sure to win over more than a few new converts. The famous tire manufacturers have turned their attention to the world of golf, and they sure have begun making quite an impression with this excellent golf ball.
Bridgestone is widely known for their comfort and handling, and the same care they give the manufacture of their tires is also given to these balls. They spin less than others and roll further than most, and this is due to that same technology they incorporate to their tires.
This ball has also proven to be stable, even on the gustiest of days, a sure mark of quality. While it isn't the best yet, the way things are going it just might be in a short while.

Nearly every course out there makes use of a ball washer. It's usually a tall, green post with a container for the washing apparatus and water.
Why should you wash your balls? As you play a game, it becomes inevitable that your balls will get dirty from being played with so much. All that gunk from being exposed will make your balls grimy or slippery or both. Cleaning your balls will help them perform and handle better.
To use a ball washer, grasp the top (it usually will have a handle) and lift it up so that you can place your balls on a carrier attached to the handle. After carefully placing your balls on the carrier, push and pull the handle in an up-and-down movement, gently cleaning your balls using the water contained in the ball washer.
When you're done, dry off your balls (usually there is a towel attached). Now tee them up, and you're ready to play!
