TrueYmpact- Scott Gibbons 1-2-10
Every year, amateur golfers spend millions on over-sized drivers, premium golf balls, expensive irons, putters and much more.
But let's be realistic.
You could give a Professional PGA Player a $100 set of starter clubs, and they'd still beat the vast majority of amateurs, even if the amateurs are playing with the most expensive gear on the market.
Why? Simply put, 95% of your game has nothing to do with your gear. The PGA Pros know this. They've fine tuned the mechanics of their swing, ensuring that when their club strikes the golf ball, their arms, hands and club face are at the optimum position for impact -- every time.
Here's how the True Ympact™ golf swing training aid will help your game:
TrueYmpact™ works with every club in your bag.
It's helpful to golfers at every skill level. (see Golf.com review below)
You can improve your full swing, bunker shots, chipping, pitching... even putting with True Ympact™.
It will help you train your arms, hands & muscles to consistently find the perfect impact position for your golf swing.
The TrueYmpact™ golf swing training aid is guaranteed to improve at least one part of your golf game within 30 days or you'll receive a full refund.
This golf swing training aid was just reviewed by Golf.com, where Gary Van Sickle wrote:
"This is what I consider the ultimate compliment for a golf training aid -- it's as useful for good players as it is for beginners or high-handicappers. That is a rarity."
5 Minutes to Tee Time- Mike Bruno - 12-19-09
5 Minutes to Tee-Time was developed to provide any golfer with a safe, effective and most importantly, a timely approach to a golf warm-up. By implemeting this simple series of flexibility and conditioning exercises along with a functional swing segment, you can experience impressive results!
The manual demonstrates step-by-step how to prepare "your" swing to be more consistent from the start of the golf round. Ultimately, if your swing is fluid from the start, you can save critical strokes, lowering your overall score.
Four equally important components are highlighted in the manual; upper body movements, mid-torso movements, lower body movements, and a functional swing segment. The program was designed to be performed in a specific sequence, therefore it is important to perform the movements in the order demonstrated.
Pictures below provide a sampling of the movements. The manual provides color pictures demonstrating the proper form, it also gives written step-by-step instructions so you complete each movement safely to maximize results!
Michael R. Bruno (Lansdale, PA) is the creator and owner of 5 Minutes to Tee-TimeTM.
The idea/concept of the program and most of the content was developed over a decade ago…but only introduced regionally to a handful of local player/pros in the NJ/PA area. After years of receiving feedback and fine tuning the golf specific movements, the program
continues to get solid reviews and is now being launched nationally. As a low handicap golfer and fitness enthusiast, he has appropriately consulted with both fitness and golf professionals and is proud to bring this unique product to the marketplace. Michael has a B.S. and M.S.A. from Bloomsburg University and West Chester University respectively.

Golf Etiquette- Tony Letendre, PGA 12-10-09
Golf Etiquette
Your actions on the golf course will say the most about you as a golfer - much more than your golf clubs or score ever will. Etiquette has to do with manners. Golfers should show courtesy and sportsmanship at all times to their playing partners. The game of golf has a rich heritage based on a code of honor and proper etiquette. No other sport played by millions of amateurs worldwide and professionals for millions of dollars in prize money has a system of penalties whereby the player is required to call penalties on themselves.
There are a few rules of golf etiquette that apply all the time, while others are specific to certain areas of the course. This guide is designed to help the reader understand the basic elements of golf etiquette and what is expected of them when they play a round of golf.
Remember, golf is a game. My hope is that you will remember and enjoy using these golf etiquette tips. Play well and have fun!
Good Golfing!
Tony Letendre, PGA
