All For The Love Of The Game" ------------------------------------------------------------ IN THIS ISSUE: 1. Teeing Off - Get A Good Grip 2. Pro Report - LEHMAN NAMED AS RYDER CUP CAPTAIN FOR '06 3. Quote Of The Week TEEING OFF Get A Good Grip A good golf swing begins with holding the club properly in your hands. You want to create a grip that is balanced between both hands with neither hand in a dominant position. In a good natural grip, the back of your left hand, as well as the palm of your right hand, will face your target. The club will sit diagonally across the fingers of your left hand with the heel pad at the base of your hand sitting on top of the club, with the last three fingers applying pressure from the bottom of the club. The left thumb sits slightly right of center on the club with no gap between the thumb and the base of the forefinger. The right hand is placed on the club with the left thumb fitting nicely in the lifeline of your right hand. The fingers of the right hand wrap around the bottom of the grip. The right thumb sits slightly left of center on the club with no gap between the thumb and the base of the trigger finger. This will produce a grip where the hands are opposing each other in a neutral position. This natural grip will allow you to return the clubface square- ly to the ball at impact without having to make any adjustments to your swing to compensate for a faulty grip. ------------------------------------------------------------ The FDA announced that Vioxx(R) hurt people Merck knows that Vioxx(R) contributed to many health problems including heart attacks and strokes.

Coming off its most lopsided defeat in the event's 77-year history, the PGA had pondered a new approach by considering Larry Nelson, 57, who's no longer active on the PGA Tour. But the association instead decided to stay with the recen formula of selecting a major champion in his 40s with Ryder Cup experience. Lehman, 45, played in three Ryder Cups and never lost a singles match. Lehman has the difficult task of re-energizing an American squad that suffered a humiliating 18 1/2-9 1/2 loss to Europe six weeks ago at Oakland Hills. That was the Americans' fourth loss in the past five Ryder Cup matches and seventh of the past 10 in a competition the United States once dominated. Two weeks ago, Lehman made it clear at the Funai Classic at Disney World how interested he was in the position. He said he would be willing to give up a chance to try to qualify for his fourth team. He is 5-3-2 at the Ryder Cup and did not play in the past two matches. "I would like to play another time with- out question, but I would love to be the captain of the next one," Lehman said. "I think being a captain in Ireland would be a phenomenal experience. I could go either way, but I'd love to be captain. If the chance came I'd jump on it." That chance came after another front-runner, Paul Azinger, said last week he'd prefer to be the captain for the 2008 matches at Valhalla. Azinger is taking a network analyst's job with ABC and also is retooling his swing; he recently told PGA officials to take him out of consideration for two more years. This marks the second time Nelson has been bypassed for the job. Many believed the two-time PGA champion, who has a 9-3-1 record in the Ryder Cup, would be named captain of the 1997 team. But Tom Kite was chosen, and the U.S. barely lost, 14 1/2-13 1/2. Picking Lehman, who won the 1996 British Open, is a bit of a risky move for the PGA only because so many people have come out in favor of Nelson. Former U.S. captains such as Dave Stockton and Lanny Wadkins were pushing PGA officials to depart from their usual formula to tab Nelson. Azinger and Lehman also endorsed Nelson, as have other current players. "I think Larry Nelson deserves to be captain at some point, and I think he would be a great captain," Lehman said at Disney. "If they ever were to decide to break tradition and go with a guy over 50, I think I'd start with him." Lehman, who was named Player of the Year in 1996, has five PGA Tour titles, but he hasn't won in almost five years. He was 53rd on the money list -- his third consecutive finish outside the top 50 -- although he finished strongly this season. He was tied for the 54-hole lead in his last three events, and he closed the year with finishes of fourth, 17th, second, fourth and sixth in his final five starts. Lehman is one of the PGA Tour's most respect- ed players, and the PGA of America is hoping his people skills can help lead an American team in need of serious regrouping after the Oakland Hills debacle. His passion for the Ryder Cup is unmistakable. Lehman's appointment no doubt will draw plenty of response from the British media, who took him to task because he was one of the Americans who ran onto the 17th green to cele- brate Justin Leonard's winning putt in 1999 at Brookline. Lehman was greatly criticized by then-European vice captain Sam Torrance. ------------------------------------------------------------ The Funniest Stand-up Film of ALL TIME Critics call RICHARD PRYOR LIVE one of the best stand-up films of all time.

More specifically, on the left arm and wrist. The idea is to make your left arm and wrist very firm through impact to prevent either of them from breaking down. A broken down left side could lead to a fat or thin chip shot. This may be true, but in my own experiences, as well as what I have observed from other golfers, focusing on the left arm and wrist has led me to believe that there must be a better way. Too often, when people think of keeping their left side firm, they end up creating too much force on impact. They try to straighten out their left arm just before impact and by doing this, they produce unwanted clubhead speed. Almost every solidly struck bump-and-run chip shot I see from amateurs goes past the hole. Have you ever noticed this? It usually ends up short of the hole if it's hit heavily. What's worse is that I see a lot of these shots hit thin and going well past the hole. This is because the left arm actually lifts up too far in an effort to keep it straight and firm, and the club's leading edge hits the middle of the ball. Therefore, I think you would be better served to think of your right wrist while chipping. Try to keep the angle you form with your right wrist very constant through the impact area. This will simultaneously keep the left side firm, but you won't be as inclined to jerk your left side and produce too much force because you won't be focusing on your left side. This motion should feel like a pendulum. To hit the chip shot a bit shorter or further, simply alter the length of the swing. Your arms don't have to feel straight and rigid either; it should just feel as though everything is moving in unison. You will discover that by focusing on your right wrist, distance control with your chip shots will improve immensely. ------------------------------------------------------------ Questions? Comments?
