Infinic's Dixx Blu Digital Instructor

A teaching aide on steroids is how I'd sum up this new putter. It's out of South Korea and it's from Infinic. Infinic promises that it's golf putter, the Dixx Blu Digital Instructor, will improve your short game like no other. This putter has sensors in it that'll measure your stance and your swing. The Dixx Blu has a small LCD screen that is used to aim. The user, you, adjusts your stance and the position of the putter so the small red dot is centered in the cross hairs displayed on the screen. When your stance in correct and your position in dead on, the dot in the center of the screen turns green - for go. Go for launch…or putt rather.

The putter goes on sale this month. It was on display at the Ceatec Exhibition in Chiba, Japan. It's a little on the pricey side. Suggested retail price around 832 dollars.

The putter has an internal navigation system that tracks the putters' position and a micro electro mechanical system motion sensor. The Dixx Blu collects detailed information about your swing, including the swing path, swing speed, impact position and the angle of the putter's face on impact. Based on all that information, the putter then analyses your swing presenting you with a detailed report immediately after your putt. Based on all of that, you are then supposed to be able to identify the areas you need to improve.

Once you've become the phenomenal putter you'll obviously become through the drills and practice session, you can then swap the putters' terminal, which includes that display and sensors, for a dummy weight designed to be used on the golf course.

Or you can just do it the old fashioned way.

Get your tickets and get to the PGA Grand Slam of Golf on Kauai at the end of this month. This may be the last one held in Hawaii. Sounds like last year.


Poipu Bay Golf Course and the 2006 PGA Grand Slam of
Golf 2006 Pro Am day 

People in Bermuda are saying they have just about sealed the deal to move the event that's been held in Hawaii for 11 years to their Mid Ocean Club course next year.

The former Tourism minister, Dr. Ewart Brown announced the deal was set to be signed while the Mid Ocean course general manager Bryan Mewett says "I think it is almost a fait accompli with just the dotting of the i's and the crossing of the t's to be done."

Craig Sasada, the Director of Golf at Poipu Golf Club says the club "option" to host the 2007 event still rests with the PGA of America agreement. The event was meant to be an on the road sort of deal and we've been very lucky to host it for the past 12 years! We'll just have to wait for the final word from the PGA of America.

In the meantime, it's been fun reading the editorials out of Bermuda. Some of them are about how some of the locals feels about spending $1.5 million dollars on two days of golf. One gentleman thought the money would be better spent on a front end of a NASCAR for a season. That's 36 races televised every weekend on TNT and NBC. Frankly I think it would be great if the Bermuda Tourism office goes for the jet ski race suggestion from another writer. That gentlemen wants to call the race, the Bermuda Triangle Invitational. Great idea. Leave the PGA Grand Slam of Golf to Kauai.


Tiger Woods at the 2006 PGA Grand Slam of Golf 

Whatever the case may be, you can get your PGA Grand Slam of Golf tickets for this year. All of the money raised through the ticket sales goes to local charities on Kauai. You get to see the best golfers in the world compete in a close up foursome. Number one ranked Tiger Woods, who won the British Open and the PGA Championship will be there. Number two ranked Jim Furyk, filled the spot open when Woods won two events.

U.S. Open winner Geoff Ogilvy is another one of the best in the world and possibly the best player from Australia. Canadian golfer Mike Weir is filling in for Masters winner Phil Mickleson, who decided he is not going to play again this year. Some say he hasn't recovered from his meltdown at the U.S. Open, others say he just wants the time with his family. It's probably a combination of both. It would be nice if he showed up for the Mercedes Benz Championship and the Sony Open in Hawaii.

There is a special commemorative, limited edition lenticular PGA Grand Slam of Golf ticket this year. It shows the major champions in action as you move the ticket. It comes with a special protective lanyard so you can wear it around your neck for all three days.


2006 U.S. Open winner Geoff Ogilvy 

U.S. Open winner Geoff Ogilvy gave golfers some great advice during "A Playing Lesson with a Pro" on The Golf Channel recently. First off, trying to duplicate the great golf you played yesterday, today, is a futile chase. You don't wake up feeling the same every day so the chances of you feeling the same at swinging your club day after day are equally as elusive. Sometimes that "feeling" of great sticks around for a couple days but it's not something you can count on. Ogilvy suggests getting out and hitting some balls before your round and feeling how you feel in the moment and make the best of it. Ogilvy says the less he tries, the better he does. Ogilvy put it this way "my instinct is a smarter and better player than I am". Trust your instincts!

Good news for professional golfers, Tiger Woods is on vacation until the PGA Grand Slam of Golf. Woods told the BBC he is getting away for a bit. "As far as golf, I've had enough for a while." Woods once said winning a major makes a year great. Not 2006. Even becoming the first player in PGA Tour history to win 8 tournaments in three seasons can't make this year a good one. His last victory, the sixth in a row on the PGA Tour, matches Ben Hogan for the second longest streak and passes Sam Snead and Arnold Palmer. No matter what he achieves this year, Tiger says 2006 will always be the year his father died. Woods said if you take into account what happened off the course, "it's my worst year. In the grand scheme of things, golf doesn't even compare to losing a parent." Woods says skipping the 2006 season opening Mercedes Benz Championship was the best decision he could have made. He stayed at his father's side, taking him to the hospital, "through the end of last year and the beginning of this year, it wasn't any fun. My dad was dying. He could have gone twice but he fought it off and that gave me inspiration. After his father died on May 3rd, Woods said it took him longer than he expected to cope with it, never having gone through something like that before. As for all the talk of breaking the late Byron Nelsons' record, Woods said "Let's just try and get there. Let's talk about that if that day ever happens." With all the talk of comparisons to 2000, states in driving distance (ranked 3rd), and driving accuracy (ranked 5th) and the 36 consecutive holes without missing a green in regulation, Tiger said "people want to compare it to the past and I'm trying to get better in the future."

Mary Bea Porter-King will be formally sworn in as an Independent Director of the PGA of America at the middle of the month during the 90th Annual Meeting.

  
Mary Bea Porter-King when she served on the USGA executive committee

The PGA of America's Board of Directors is composed of the Association's president, vice president, secretary, honorary president ad 17 directors. The directors, who each serve 3 year terms, are from each of the PGA of America's 14 districts plus two independent directors and a member of the PGA Tour. Porter-King's golf career spans from her amateur playing in the Nebraska State Amateur, All America honors at Arizona State University, playing on the LPGA Tour, successfully established the Hawaii State Junior Golf Association and serving on the United State Golf Associations executive committee. Porter-King has won many awards for her achievements in golf. There is also an award named after her.

In 1988, during a qualifying round for the former Standard Register Turquoise Classic in Phoenix, Porter-King saw a boy drowning in a nearby swimming pool. She climbed a fence and administered CPR to save the life of 3 year old Jonathan Smucker. As a result, the Metropolitan Golf Writers Association established the Mary Bea Porter Humanitarian Award to honor a heroic or humanitarian act that enhances human life. Her action, saving the boy, led to her disqualification from the golf event she was in and she knew it would when she scaled the fence.

When Porter King was on "The Golf Club" radio show in October, we talked about moving the PGA Grand Slam of Golf. One of her responsibilities on the board, next year, will be deciding where the event is played.

The world of golf mourns the loss of a great golfer and a man.


Lord Byron Nelson 

Byron Nelson died on September 26th, just days after the final round the EDS Byron Nelson Championship. It was also days after speculation began about whether Tiger Woods would break Nelson's 11 straight tournament wins in 1945. When Woods was asked about breaking that streak, after his 6th win, Woods said "If you look at it, I'm barely halfway there. What he did was absolutely remarkable." Nelson retired from golf at the age of 34 to spend more time on his ranch. He was 94 when he died. The next day, the U.S. Senate signed a bill awarding Nelson the Congressional Gold Medal.

Two weeks after the death of Lord Byron, the King walked away from competitive golf.


Arnold Palmer at the Administaff Small Business Classic 

Arnold Palmer played four holes of the Administaff Small Business Classic in Spring, Texas and said "no more". Palmer said he was aching at the beginning of the tournament, even "my toenails are arching." Four holes into the round, Palmer was ready to walk away but he didn't. He told Lee Trevino, who offered to go get him a cart, "no, I can't go. I can't leave. But please don't put a score down." Trevino said no problem and Palmer finished the round for his fans. Palmer said he'll be busy concentrating on building golf courses. In an article written by Melanie Hauser for PGATour.com, Palmer says he'll play some father-son (grandson) events, some charity events. Right now, there's just no thoughts of any more tournament golf." adding "the only thing that would make me want to play again is if somebody hit me with a wand and said your back's ready to go again. And that's not likely to happen, as you all know."


Arnold Palmer, in his 70's, still has amazing form.

The PGA Tour has extended it's marketing agreement with the state of Hawaii. The Hawaii Tourism Authority and the PGA Tour signed the agreement extending the partnership to 2010, with the possibility of and extension for 2011 and 2014. The new contract means the PGA and Champions Tour will hold events in Hawaii, including the season opening Mercedes Benz Championship, Sony Open in Hawaii, MasterCard Championship at Hualalai and the Turtle Bay Championship.

We'll see if the Wendy's Champions Skins Game and the PGA Grand Slam of Golf, operated independently from the PGA Tour, are extended as well.


Wailea Gold Course and the Wendy's Champions Skins Game 

Rex Johnson, the HTA president and chief executive officer says the HTA is excited by the terms of the new contract, which also lends support for two professional women's events and a guarantee that the PGA Tour will hold on of it's annual meetings in Hawaii during the contract period.

The Wendy's Champions Skins Game, played at Wailea's Gold Course on Maui, has been moved to the same weekend at the PGA Tour's Sony Open in Hawaii. It used to be held on Super Bowl Weekend. I imagine it works out better for the players taking over for Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer. The last format was a two man team format, with some of the younger Champions Tour players, like Craig Stadler and Peter Jacobsen, teaming up with the star's, Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson, just to name a few. With the new date, the Skins game becomes a warm up for those players who are actively on the Champions Tour circuit. They'll go to the MasterCard Championship at Hualalali followed by the season opener at the Turtle Bay Palmer Course, the Turtle Bay Championship.

With the new PGA Tour contract for Hawaii comes hours of national television coverage for the state. Approximately 22 days offering the sun starved East Coast with some sights of Hawaii's beautiful golf courses on The Golf Channel. TGC will also have complete coverage of the Mercedes Benz Championship starting January 4th at Kapalua's Plantation Course on Maui.


Kapalua Plantation Course and the view of Molokai.  It would be hard not to book a flight out of
the snow to be here. 

The broadcast team will have Kelly Tilghman as play by play announcer and Nick Faldo as lead analyst. Rounding out the team, Kapalua's Mark Rolfing, Rich Lerner, Dottie Pepper, Rocco Mediate and Jerry Foltz. The Golf Channel then moves to Oahu to cover the Sony Open in Hawaii.

During a news conference at the LPGA Samsung World Championship the day of her 17th birthday, Michelle Wie met with the media to tell the world she hasn't given up her dream. She is going to continue to play on as many men's events as she is invited to and can handle in her schedule. She is determined to make the cut. Wie said "I'm going to work at it. I'm not going to achieve it overnight. It's a long process. I'm willing to work at it. Hopefully I'm going to play a lot of men's events."


Michelle Wie (Nike Golf Photo) 

She says no one has actually sat down and written out the coming year's schedule with her, but she says she thinks she knows her limits now, the number of tournaments in a row and how to handle her sponsors days and school and "stuff like that."

In her seven LPGA events, Wie has six top five finishes, with her best result second place at the Evian Masters in France in July.

Wie says she is proud to have been in contention in almost every tournament and she shrugged off the difficult summer as a learning experience and vowed that over scheduling will not be problem in 2007. She put that down in the growing pains column. Learning how much her body can take and when she can play and how many tournaments is the peak. Michelle is making early applications to colleges and expects to mix university life with pro golf. During her last outing, at the 2006 Samsung, she ended up tied for 17th in a 20 person field.

Annika Sorenstam, after a slow start at the beginning of this year, is still perfectly capable of winning tournament after tournament regardless of the talent coming up the ranks. But she is coming up against some stiff competition from Lorena Ochoa. Ochoa has been the strongest adversary this year. At the 2006 Samsung, when everyone expected Sorenstam to pull off another victory, Ochoa took it away from her. Despite that victory, Ochoa remains second to Sorenstam in the Rolex Women's World Rankings. Sorenstam's lead over Ochoa slipped by only .21 average points. The next four places remained unchanged as Karrie Webb, Christie Kerr, Juli Inkster, Paul Creamer remained third through sixth. Ai Miyazato moved up to seventh and Jeong Jang down to eighth. Shinho Ohyama and Michelle Wie round out the top ten.

How would you fix the U.S. Ryder Cup Team? Tiger Woods say the team needs some more young blood, needs to get off to better starts in the matches and needs to make more putts. Tiger says players on the European team that are younger know how to win. Woods say Sergio Garcia really bringing that spark of competition to the Ryder Cup that is lacking on the U.S. team.

Tiger Woods talks about their European Team win

NBC and The Golf Channel analyst Mark Rolfing has some great ideas in "The Golf Club" October 14th show. He says the Ryder Cup team needs to be picked differently. Rolfing suggests the top five be from overall points and the rest Captain's picks so the he can select the players who are playing well at the time of the Ryder Cup. This year there were several players just not on their game, at the time of the Cup, something all golfers understand.

Rolfing also pointed out something we can all learn from. Normally Tiger Woods and his caddie line up the putts together just like Jim Furyk and his caddie do in all the tournament they play in. But for some reason, all of a sudden Furyk and Woods are trying to help each other. Not only is it a complete move out of their normal pre shot routine, they don't play with each other enough to understand each others putting.

The European team kept the Ryder cup with it's 18 1/2 to 9 1/2 win, identical to their one sided win back in 2004. The 2008 Ryder Cup will be at the Vallhalla course in Louisville. Tiger Woods says the site will be neutral, no "home course" advantage because it's been 8 years "any of us have seen the golf course".

The European team did get a lot of "lucky breaks". Phil Mickleson's caddie saw their victory coming. Mickleson was paired with David Howell in the Memorial this year. Everything was going wrong for the Englishman. His shots were landing underneath the trees, taking wicked hops into bunkers. He shot an 83. One reporter watching told Jim "Bones" Mackay he'd never seen a golfer get so many bad breaks. Mackay replied "Yea, but watch, he'll make everything at the Ryder Cup".

Feelings were hurt before the event and one of the most telling comments came from Garcia who said he hoped the European team win over the U.S team would end speculation that the Nationwide Tour was the second best to the PGA Tour.


Sergio Garcia 

The PGA Professional Hall of Fame is inducting seven in it's 2006 class including Jack Nicklaus. Nicklaus will be joined by the PGA of America President Roger Warren, 2005 PGA Golf Professional of the Year Bill Eschenbrenner, 1958 PGA Champion Dow Finsterwald, 1986 Teachers of the Year Manuel De La Toree, PGA Master Professional William Heald and the 1987 PGA Teach of the Year Gary Wiren. The inductees will be honored in a ceremony on December 8th at the PGA Village in Port St. Lucie Florida.

In less than two weeks, Larry Nelson will be inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame. He is so very calm about receiving one of the highest honor in golf until he talks about where his bronzed bust will end up. Thanks to alphabetical order, Nelson's will be between Byron Nelson and Jack Nicklaus. Nelson is a 10 time winner on the PGA Tour including three major victories. Nelson is one of the great Ryder Cup players of the past. He went 9-3-1 in three Ryder Cups and in 1979 became the only player to card an unblemished 5-0 record. Nelson says you hear about guys saying they're too tired or too nervous. That never happened when he was playing. "It was, ‘You mean, I'm not going to play five (matches) this year?"

In 1986, Larry Nelson was ready to quit but decided to give it one last try. He got into running, a fitness program and refocused his game and that's when he won his second PGA Championship in 1987. During the final round, at the PGA National course in Florida, the temperature was around 103 degrees. Players were changing their socks, they were so wet from perspiration. Nelson says he couldn't have pulled off the victory if it had not been for his great physical condition.

Good news from Japan. The economy is doing so much better, golf memberships are trading again on the Tokyo stock exchange. At the height of the Japan economic peak, club memberships were going for 2 million dollars. Now the golf member price index published by the Nihon Keizai, Japan's leading business daily, is up 37 percent. On top of that, Goldman Sachs is doing with an IPO this month, selling shares of AccordiaGolf. The share sale is expected to raise one billion dollars. Much of this new found enthusiasm for golf is the huge number of baby boomers with money to spend and golf is appealing to more than just men. Golf courses are going out of their way to attract women to the course across the country and around the world. It's something the folks at Waikoloa figured out years ago.

The fifth annual Waikoloa Women's Golf Challenge was played the last weekend in October. The 36 hole two person ladies' event pairs up the excitement of playing in a tournament with off course fun or pampering. Off the course, the player could choose either to play another round, enjoy a luxurious spa treatment at the Marriott's Mandara Spa, explore Polulu Valley aboard the off road Pinzgauer vehicle or experience the Dolphin Encounter. Plan on it for next year. You can get the information at www.waikoloabeachresort.com/womens_challenge.php or call 1-877 924 5656.

Great news for golf courses around the world interested in hosting televised golf events but ill equipped to put in the thousands of miles of cable to pull of f the project. Irish communications company Digicel got the exclusive as the official telecom supplier for the World Golf Championship in Barbados this December. With that announcement, Digicel also unveiled it's wireless network. The Barbados event will be the first event to be completely wireless, eliminating the need for trenching along the course, underground cable and other wires. That does away with 8 thousand feet of cable and saves a huge amount of money. Digicel will provide Internet, voice, fax and other data services.

Golf is becoming big business in China. The PGA Tour has found a way to get into China through the World Golf Championships. The World Cup will be played at Mission Hills Golf Club. PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem says the agreement accomplishes three objectives. It's brings PGA Tour level golf to Asia, officially keeps the World Cup alive and it puts an official PGA Tour event in China, something the Tour has been working on for years. There are still the details to work out, like which WGC event will be played there and when. Finchem likes to say golf is growing globally because the WGC events are broadcast globally. European Tour executives don't agree. There they believe the WGC events, held mainly in the U.S. are sending a very "American message, and that is one that we would do well to be concerned about"

Parallel Media Group PLC has been appointed the exclusive world wide commercial representative of the Mission Hills Golf Club in China for the World Cup of Golf.

Golf lessons are going to be made compulsory for some students of one Chinese university to produce "socially elite people with the best education". That is according to the president of Xiamen University in southeast China. President Zhu Chongshi says golf lessons will be offered to all students but those majoring in management, law, economic and software engineering courses will be required to take the course. The university president says golf is not only good exercise but will teach student communication skills and benefit their careers. One critic accuses the university of vulgar elitism.

Congratulations to all the players and thank you to the Turtle Bay Resort for sponsoring the 2006 Aloha Section PGA Turtle Bay Golf Match Play Championship at the Arnold Palmer Course earlier this week. The total purse was over $10 thousand dollars.

John Lynch of Golftec Hawaii walked away with most of it after defeating Mark Morrison of Swing and Play the Easy Way, 1 up. Lynch got to the final round after defeating Darren Syre, Matt Pakkala, and Andrew Feldman. Morrison earned his spot with is win over Jason Deigert, Beau Yokomoto and Kevin Carll. In the senior division, Mike Rich of Maui Country Club defeated Dugal Milne of Makena.

It's already that time of year. Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Year and the very best of professional golf! The 2006 golf season "ends" with the PGA Grand Slam of Golf at Poipu on Kauai the three days before Thanksgiving. The 2007 season begins the first week in January with the Mercedes Benz Championship at Kapalua on Maui. After the PGA Tour arrives, the Champions Tour begins it's season followed by the LPGA season opener at Turtle Bay and the SBS Open followed the next week by the Fields Open at Ko Olina. In between, the local professional golf season begins with the Pearl Open at the Pearl Country Club.

None of these events would be possible without YOU.

  

While the media focuses on Tiger Woods coming back to defend his title at the PGA Grand Slam of Golf and his return to the Mercedes Benz Championships in January and Michelle Wie's next attempt to make it to the weekend at the Sony Open in Hawaii, there are literally thousands of people who actually make all of those events possible. They are the volunteers.

If you'd like to be one of them, it's time to make the call.

Some of the events already have community organizations devoted to staffing them, like The PGA Grand Slam of Golf, The Wendy's Champions Skins and the MasterCard Championship at Hualalai, which are relatively small events.

  

The Sony Open Hawaii at Waialae Country Club and the Turtle Bay Championship needs volunteers. So does the SBS Open at Turtle Bay and the Fields Open at Ko Olina. These are the most demanding events. They are all full field events which means a lot of golfers, their families and their caddies, plus the thousands of spectators, and all the data needed for those people "watching" live on the Internet. Volunteers are needed to help in all of those areas.

What will you get for your time? Probably a shirt, a snack and the satisfaction of knowing that you helped someone in need. The money raised at each event is distributed to the charities in the community the event is held. All of the events could not be held without the volunteers.

If you are interested in being one of the "unsung hero's", please call the event site you'd like to give your time to. If you want to help the North Shore communities, call the Turtle Bay Resort and tell them you'd like to help out at the Turtle Bay Championship or the SBS Open. If you want to help the Leeward coast, join the volunteers working the Fields Open at Ko Olina. The Sony Open in Hawaii generates hundreds of thousands of dollars that are then matched by the Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation and distributed to over 60 different charities, from The Arc in Hawaii to the Ronald McDonald House.

And if you'd like to raise money for your organization, start selling tickets to the Sony Open in Hawaii. The money you raise selling tickets goes to the non profit organization you represent.

One of the most memorable golf shots, and rulings, in history? How about Gary Hallberg. His ball landed on the roof of the club house in the 1982 Bob Hope Classic and he played it from the roof. He thought his ball was out of bounds but it turned out the clubhouse wasn't. His drop zone would have been in the rocks and the rules official said "or you can play it from where it lies." He was laughing when he said it, but Hallberg did it. There were two palm trees between the shot and the green and about 60 or 70 yards. He hit it about 30 feet past the hole but on the green. Hallberg said he missed every putt that day but that one.

Now to our Russian golfers I promised last month. They are enthusiastically getting into the swing of things with their own golf revolution. Until this year, there were only three courses in Russia. Two 18 hole courses in Moscow and one 7 hole course in St. Petersburg. In the last 12 months, two new courses were built plus one course for one man's personal enjoyment.

There are lots of billionaires in Russia and now they all want to be golfers. There are 60 new courses now in the planning or construction phases. Build it and they will come? Oh yea, that's exactly what is happening in Russia and they are coming dressed in the most expensive golf clothes, using the most expensive golf equipment and driving Bentleys and Ferraris. They've got all the "stuff" to play the game, just not the skills. Until recently, golf was frowned upon. But it's a free market now and the oil money is pouring in. One Russian movie producer recently interviewed said "We Russians start slow, but then we can't be stopped." There are a few things you have to get used to if you go play in Russia. Many members of the golf club, who pay 32 thousand dollars to be members and 4 thousand a year to remain members, are always accompanied by their gun packing body guards. Out in the parking lot, a guard strolls around examining the undercarriages of the posh vehicles looking for bombs. And you'll need to listen for the many "fore" heard across the course. They may be dressed as golfers but they are still learning the game! Neil Sweeney, a British golf professional figures Russia will produce professionals in a few years. He says the ones who get into the game, practice like crazy.

Not all Russians are duffers. Anastasia Kostina is now at Washington State and hopes to get to the LPGA.

Here's the Hula Girl products, made in Hawaii, that might make a perfect Christmas gift for someone special around the world.


Hula Girl coffee and pancake mixes 

My grandson thoroughly enjoyed the coconut flavored pancake mix I sent to his father while they were stationed in Germany. You can get these Hula Girl products at all of the Don Quijote stores.

If you'd like to listen to any of "The Golf Club" radio shows, just go to http://www.radiogolfclub.com/, go to the listen section, click on the coffee mug and you'll find the list going back a couple of years. You can listen any time you want or during the live broadcast. The October 21st show is all about the First Tee chapter on Oahu and how you can get your kids out on the "links". You can visit http://www.thefirstteeoahu.org/ for more information.

I hope you have a peaceful Thanksgiving, hope to see you on Kauai for the PGA Grand Slam of Golf or I'll "see" you on top the radio some Saturday for another visit in the clubhouse at "The Golf Club".

Thank you for your Mana, and may you hit the sweet spot every time.

Aloha,
Danielle
