Ping G25 is a great value
One of the best deals right now in golf equipment is the Ping G25 line of drivers, fairways, hybrids and irons. Ping has decided to continue selling the G25 clubs through the Fall, and just recently reduced the prices. As always there is no charge for any customization in your set. Call or come by Golf Rx if you would like more information.
Winn Grips recently introduced a new Dri-Tac Wrap to their very popular Dri-Tac line of grips. The wrap provides a contoured feel in a classic wrap-style design with exceptional non-slip all weather performance. Golf Pride as well has a new grip called the MCC Plus 4. It is similar to the New Decade Multicompound, but the 4.6% larger lower hand encourages a lighter grip pressure. The 20% softer rubber in the lower half matches the feel of building up your grip with extra layers of tape.
As we enter our 6th year of business at Golf Rx I would like to personally thank all of our customers for their support and patronage. I saw a need for a full service golf facility that could provide customers with personal and professional service. I also wanted Golf Rx to be a your "one stop golf shop" providing PGA Instruction, Custom Fitted Professional Equipment, and Club Repair Services. I feel fortunate that our customer base continues to grow each year.

Beware of buying on the internet
A few weeks ago I had a student who wanted to get custom fit for a new Ping G30 driver. After the fitting he said he would let me know about ordering it. A week later he came to the shop asking if I could sell him an adjustment tool for Ping woods. I asked him why and he said he got a great deal online for a brand new G30 driver, 3 & 5 wood. He said he paid less than half the regular price.
I asked him if I could look at them so he brought them in for my inspection. A minute later my suspicions were confirmed. All three clubs were counterfeit. At first he wasn't convinced so I called Ping and read off the serial numbers. Ping confirmed they were counterfeit.
Not only is he out a lot of money but the clubs are worthless - the heads are made of pot metal and the shafts are closer to a ladies flex. Unfortunately this is not the first time I have had to give this bad news to customers. There are thousands of counterfeit clubs brought into the U.S. everyday. 60 Minutes, the CBS news show did a piece on the problem a few months ago.
Be careful when buying from the internet. My rule of thumb is "If it sounds too good to be true, it almost always is."

When to take a golf lesson
As a golf instructor it may sound peculiar that I would say not everyone needs to take a golf lesson. However, I will say that probably ninety percent of the players I see on the practice tee and golf course do need to take a lesson. If you can identify with any of these situations I would suggest taking a lesson.
1. " I can't keep my tee shot in play." The driver may very well be the most important club in the bag. To score in golf a player must be able to keep the ball in play off the tee. Penalty shots are killers to scoring well and most occur with the driver.
2. "Once I get within 50 or 60 yards of the green I either hit the ball fat or skull it over the green."
75 percent of your strokes in a round of golf take place inside of 60 yards of the green. It is imperative on short approach shots to get the ball on the green in one stroke.
3. "I am taking over 40 putts every time I play 18 holes." Putting is 40 percent of your score. To score well in golf a player must eliminate three putts.
4. "I am hitting shots in both directions and I have no idea why." If you want to improve your game it is important to understand why the ball goes different directions. Your shot pattern is the result of the impact conditions between the clubface and the ball. Once a player understands this "impact geometry" the instructor can then explain what they are doing to put the clubface in that particular position.
5. "I am new to the game and all my buddies are trying to help me." The best thing a new player can do is get some professional instruction early on. By establishing proper fundamentals you will improve faster and have more fun. It is no more difficult to learn the right way then it is the wrong way.
6. "I'm reading the magazines and trying all the instruction tips." Trying to learn golf by trial and error - that is trying one thing one day and another the next is a recipe for failure. Because their swing has not been developed on correct principals, it is unreliable. They have to depend on the next tip or idea with no basic principal to back it up.

Ping G30 Driver has been a big success
The Ping G30 driver has done extremely well since it was introduced. In April, the busiest month of the year for driver sales, the PING G30 driver increased its industry-leading market shares in units (13.95%, up 6%) and dollars (18.56%, up 6%) according to Golf Datatech LLC, which tracks golf equipment sell-thru data for the United States.
The G30 driver sold 56% more units in April than the next-closest model. It marked the third consecutive month the G30 driver was #1 in units and the second-straight month it ranked #1 in revenue share. Over the nine months since its introduction in July last year, it's been the top-selling driver model in units and revenue.
The G30 driver is offered in three options to custom-fit golfers. The standard G30 is offered in 9° and 10.5° lofts. The G30 SF Tec, which helps produce a right-to-left shot bend (for right-handed golfers), is available in 10° and 12° lofts. The G30 LS Tec is engineered to provide low, stable spin for added control and comes in lofts of 9° and 10.5°. All options are adjustable +-1° loft, a T9S titanium face and a low/back center of gravity.
