The technology of the G15 Iron provides the high-launching, maximum forgiveness benefits that the majority of golfers rely on to bring consistency to their iron play. The stainless steel iron’s cavity design features a new Custom Tuning Port (CTP) which expands the perimeter weighting and increases the moment of inertia. Weight savings from a thinner face is re-positioned to the toe for added forgiveness on mis-hits and its wider sole produces a higher launch angle.

遼、4位タイ発進につながった気持ちの“色”とは?
2012年10月04日19時00分
<キヤノンオープン 初日◇4日◇戸塚カントリー倶楽部(7,191ヤード・パー72)>
国内男子ツアー「キヤノンオープン」が開幕。今大会2年連続最終日最終組と好相性の石川遼が、5バーディ・1ボギーの“68”で回り4アンダー4位タイと国内ツアー今季最高位スタートを決めた。
【関連リンク】「石川遼の1打速報」でこの日のプレーを振り返る!
石川が国内ツアーで初日を1ケタ順位で終えるのは5月の「とおとうみ浜松オープン」の8位タイ以来。石川自身も「今日くらいのプレーは出来る調子だったけど、初日から出来るかが課題だった」と、初日の出遅れが続いていることは自覚している。しかし、「上だけではなく、下に落ちないプレーをしなければいけない」という初日ならではの難しさに「冷静になりすぎてしまう」と、気持ちを上げきれずに出遅れる悪循環にはまってしまっていた。
だが、この日は冷静な中にも「最終日と同じ色でプレーするのは難しいけど、最終日に近い色でやれれば」と意識的に気持ちを盛り上げて好スタート。石川にとって最終日の気持ちの“色”は、着用するウエアにも現れているように赤。「(これまでの初日は)ブルー系の色で行ってしまっていたけど、今日は赤に近い色を出していければと」と、この日は最終日のイメージでプレーすることを意識して自らをリズムに乗せた。
技術的には「先週の土日に比べるとタイミングがバッチリ合っている感じはない」としながらも、「ショットのミスをパッティングでカバーできたり、ショットで獲れたバーディもあったり」と噛みあった内容には合格点。3番では林の中から「10から15ヤードくらいはスライスをかけた」というセカンドを1メートルにつけてバーディを奪うなど、久々に“らしい”プレーも披露した。
「今日は薄い赤くらい」という気持ちの“色”で鬼門の初日は突破した。ここからギアを上げて、最高の週末に向け気持ちも真っ赤に染めていく。

INコースからスタートした池田は11番、12番と連続バーディを奪うと、後半4番までに6つのバーディを奪取。「後半は風が止まって色々考えてしまったことが、あと一つ伸びなかった要因かなと思う」と終盤はバーディを奪えなかったものの、今季初優勝へ向け上々のスタートを切った。
この日のラウンドを「まあスコアは良かった。パターもまあまあ。セカンドもまあ良かった。すごく良いわけではないけどまあまあなゴルフだった。明日もまあまあ良さげな気もするし、今週はまあまあ良さげな気もする」と独特な言い回しで振り返った池田。グリーンコンディションを見てパターを変更したことも「悪くない判断だった」と好スコアを後押しした。

2013年の「プレジデンツカップ」副主将に任命され、ゴルフ界に大きなニュースをもたらした丸山茂樹が、この日開幕した国内男子ツアー「キヤノンオープン」で4アンダー4位タイと好スタートを切った。
【関連ニュース】遼、4位タイ発進につながった気持ちの“色”とは?
しかし、好スタートにも「いっぱいいっぱい。ここ(会見場)で話すような調子じゃない」とトレードマークの笑顔にもどこか疲れが残る。その理由はここ数年悩まされているドライバーの不調だ。「体の不調から曲がりはじめて、ここ2年は重度じゃないけどイップスみたいな症状が出ている。PGAツアーの最後のほうでそういう感じがあって、去年の大怪我をきっかけに覚醒させてしまった」。
練習日やプロアマなど、プレッシャーのかからない場面では気持ちよく振れているドライバーが、「名前を呼ばれた瞬間に“悪魔”が来る」と本戦に入ると途端に言うことを聞かなくなる。アイアン、アプローチは“世界のマル”と呼ばれた技術を維持しているが、“悪魔”にとりつかれたドライバーは絶好調時の面影を見ることが出来ない状態だ。
「プレジデンツカップ」副将への抜擢もモチベーションの1つにはなっているものの、「責任を感じるし頑張りたいと思うけど、今の自分を追い込むことはしたくない」と満身創痍で戦っているだけに、必要以上に意識はしていない。「ゴルフはゆっくり時間をかけて取り戻せたらいいなと思う」。好位置で迎える2日目も過度な期待を課すことなく、まずはやっかいな“悪魔”と向き合ってスタートする。

Timeless Wisdom in Funny Golf Quotes
Beginning Golfer Shoots Lower Score
Golf is a great way to enjoy time with your family and friends. Whether you play a leisure round of nine holes or are able to enjoy a full round of eighteen holes, the game of golf is rewarding on many levels. The best news is every beginning golfer can shoot a reasonable score.
A beginner only needs a handful of items to get started. A few lofted golf clubs, say a nine and seven iron, and a putter. If you want, grab a metal wood, but no more than a five wood. Gather some golf balls, tees, a towel, and throw your stuff in a golf bag. You are ready to play some golf!
You are probably wondering about all the other clubs and why they were left out. They are for the golfer who is ready to mix playing golf with practicing golf. If it makes you feel less awkward, take the full set of clubs with you, just use the ones mentioned until you are comfortable with your golfing abilities. Let me explain myself.
Golf is a sport. Like all other sports a score determines the winner. In golf the lowest score or fewest strokes win. Most people who play sports enjoy competition. Why not learn how to play golf to win from the very beginning. After all an early success will bring you back to the golf course sooner. And I don't know of a better place to be than on a golf course.
If you are playing with others of your same ability you need to learn how to score the lowest. This is why you are only using a few clubs for now. If you can keep the ball moving forward towards the target (the flag) instead of sideways (the direction most beginners hit towards) you will always score lower than you opponent. The clubs that are easiest to hit are the ones with the most loft, your seven and nine iron. These will never travel as far as your opponent's big dog (their driver or 1 metal), but they have a greater chance of moving the ball in the direction of your target. So it may take you six or seven shots down the fairway to reach the green, chances are your score will be less than your playing opponent when totaled.
Making solid contact with the golf ball will always win the game. Using the higher lofted clubs will have you hitting the ball with precise contact faster than any other club in the bag, except your putter. When you can stand at address over a golf ball with a seven or nine iron and hit a good shot seven out of nine times you can expand your club selection to any other club. I use this technique when teaching beginners to play and they are my proof that it works. The confidence you gain from hitting good shots by making solid contact will show up with every other club once you master the higher lofted irons.

Three Simple Golf Swing Lessons
In order to hit consistent shots you need to have good swing mechanics, a solid set-up and a consistent technique, but there are certain overlooked principles that if you follow will give you a great golf swing. When I say that these principles are "overlooked" I mean that you know that you're supposed to follow these principles, but you don't. So in this article I'm going to give you three golf swing lessons which you must follow if you want to produce consistent shots.
Golf Swing Lesson #1 Keep Your Head Still!
Any great golfer will tell you the importance of keeping your head still throughout the swing. Teachers tell you, books tell you and videos tell you, and yet still one of the most common faults amongst golfers is head movement. Moving your head too much causes many problems, thinning the ball, topped shots, shanked shots and more are all caused partly by simply moving your head through the swing.
You see if you move your head then this pulls your whole body out of it's correct posture and stance, this in turn causes your arms and your club to come off of their correct path. When golfers are told to keep their head still in the swing, they tend to think that they have to keep their head rigidly still and this doesn't feel natural, so understandably this puts them off the idea, but what golfers are referring to when they say 'keep your head still' is really 'keep your head steadied'.
You see the golf swing is centred around rotating the body and arms back and through so obviously your head isn't going to remain perfectly still, it's going to pivot a little.
The golf swing should be relaxed so first of all take a look at your posture at address. When viewed in profile your spine and the clubs shaft should create a 90 degree angle, your head should be titled at the same angle as your spine.
In the swing you focus on rotating your body, shoulders and arms around your spinal axis, whilst your spine stays in relatively the same position. The same should be true of your head, I want you to think of your head as an extension of your spine, let your arms and body swing around it, if you do this you will eliminate a lot of problems.
Golf Swing Lesson #2 Don't bend your right arm prematurely
The arms play an important role through the swing, they control movement of the club and the position of the clubface through the swing.
Now most golfers know that as you bring the club back, your left arm remains straight, whilst your right arm bends, but it's really important that you don't bend your right elbow until after the mid point of the backswing, nearer the top of the backswing, this will help to ensure that you get a nice wide arc on the backswing.
So as you bring the club back, the left arm should remain relatively straight throughout the entire backswing but the right arm remains straight until the mid point of the backswing. Then at this point your right elbow begins to bend until it forms a 90 degree angle at the top of the backswing, the elbow should point down towards the floor.

How to Calculate Horse-Race Sports Betting Rewards
Horse racing sports betting is not only an exciting venture but a profitable one as well. Well, this excitement can't get better than the initial bonus that horse racing betting websites avail to new members. For a start you can get $50 dollars and this you can stake on a horse which has good odds. And if you win you can proceed betting or call it quits. So this i just one of the attractive aspects of horse racing betting online.
As a bettor, what you need to do is to identify and select a winning horse which is am a matter of discretion for hold hands. So how do you go about identifying the best horse? Well, it is not simply a matter of looking and giving assessment based on perceptions. First, you should know how to calculate the racing outcome. You should also know what is at stake, the money placed on the bet and the betting odds of your opponent.
If you are comfortable or conversant with fractional odds methods of calculating horse-racing sports betting rewards then you can use it. The formula is (L/R)+1. This simply means that you take the spread on the right and divide it with one on the left and add one to the results. Its quite simple as that. For instance if you have odds of 8/4 on the winner, then divide it 8 by 4 which gives you 2. Thereafter, add one to this results which comes to 3. Now to get your return, you need to multiply your stake with the resulting figure which amounts to an impressive $ 40 reward.
Alternatively, you can use the decimal odd which is offered by some websites hence no need of making any conversions. In case you know your decimal odds minus your stake you will just need to add a point to come up with a stake. Once you know your stake, then multiply it with the figure provided. The ultimate figure then becomes your reward. The other option is to use winning accumulators where you need to convert odds to decimal, add a point to the figure and then multiply it with your stake to get the value of your horse-racing sports betting reward.

What Are Your Strength and Weaknesses as a Bookie?
When you are bookmaker, you are the CEO of your own sports betting business. Your company may be small, but you need to think like a large sports booking corporation. You simply can’t expect yourself to do everything and succeed. Hone in on your strengths and weaknesses, and then try to find people to help you with what you don't do well. If money is an issue, barter with people for the help you need.
Starting a self-employed sports betting business using pay per head solutions is considerably simpler than most business models. You do not need to go through the steps of registering your business namebecause you will operate under your own name. Furthermore, you don't need an employer identification number because technically you will not have any employees. There are, however, still a few things to take care of before you can begin taking bets from your clients.
You should have a business plan beforehand. It does not need to be a very long or detailed document, but it should clearly describe what your plans for business are at least in the first month and the first year. Describe what type of betting options you will have available, what your daily activities will include, how you will attract clients and how much money you expect to make.

The Proper Way in Handling Obesity in Horses
The job of owning and caring for horses comes with a great deal of responsibilities. You need to make sure it gets the correct amount of exercise, is fed well, and stays disease free. Another vital function you contribute to the horse’s well-being is by helping it to maintain the proper weight. Managing an equine’s health and weight is dependent on nutrition management, a regular exercise regiment and proper veterinary care. These are all keys towards keeping your horse fit and healthy while also preventing obesity from setting it.
While these three keys sound easy enough, it couldn’t be further from the truth. The fact is helping a horse maintain its ideal weight is not always easy. When beginning a veterinarian approved weight loss program for an obese horse, there are a few guidelines to follow. As always, make sure they are done gradually and under the supervision of an equine veterinarian. Here are a few:
First, you must be patient. Nothing happens overnight, especially weight loss. It is a slow and steady process just like it is in humans. Losing weight too rapidly can stress the horse and upsets its metabolic system. Begin by gradually implementing changes in both the type of feed and the amount it is fed every day. Many experts recommend reducing its feed by no more than 10% over a seven to ten day period. I like to use a weight tape and a spreadsheet to track the horse's progress. It can help you by recognizing when the horse's weight plateaus so you further cut back on its ration once more.
Make sure the horse is eating a good balance of feed. This is dependent on the horse's age and activity level. Vets often recommend providing horse supplements to guarantee its vitamin, mineral and protein requirements are properly met.
There is nothing more important to a horse’s health than water. Make sure it has access to plenty of clean, fresh water. It allows the animal’s digestive system to function as efficiently as possible. Water also rids the body of metabolic and other wastes.
Buy feeds containing plenty of high quality fiber yet are low in total energy. Don’t make the mistake of buying feed based on volume instead of weight. This is a common cause of horse owners feeding their animals the incorrect amount of rations. Choose lower in fat feeds since they are an energy-dense nutrient source.
By continuing to follow these tips, your horse should easily reach its ideal body condition.

Memphis knows that the higher they are the harder they fall
Since 2007 when the Golden State Warriors knocked out the Dallas Mavericks no other eight seeded team has defeated a top seeded team in the league, something that the Grizzlies are just one game from emulating.
When the San Antonio Spurs clinch the No. 1 seeded in the West after a great 61-21 season, just one game behind the Chicago Bulls for the best record overall, the expectations about the future of the team where set up high. Facing the last seeded Memphis Grizzlies didn’t seem as much of an obstacle for them in order to advance into the conference semifinals.
Not only those conditions placed them as the favorite squad to win the series, but history also backed them up, since only one eight seeded team had been able to eliminate a top seeded in a first round seven game series: the Golden State Warriors in 2007 when they stunned the Dallas Mavericks.
If the 2011 NBA Playoffs were played on assumptions, the Spurs would have been the winner, but they are not disputed that way. Just in case one had any doubts, Memphis made that very clear by upsetting them on the road by 101-98 on game one.
That loss was the first wake-up call for the Spurs that tried to turn off the buzzer on game 2 with a 93-87 victory over the Grizzlies to square the series to one game apiece, prior to traveling to Memphis for the next two games.
But it looks like the flight got them sleepy again, and the price to pay was going to be high: losing game three by 91-88, in what was their second wake-up call of a series that the Grizzlies were now leading 2-1.
On game four the Spurs got their third wake-up call, it was Tim Duncan’s birthday and they not only wanted to celebrate it with a victory, but also needed it to avoid compromising themselves with a 3-1 scenario.
That game disputed on Monday night at the FedEx Forum represented a turning point for the Grizzlies, because with a victory they could leave behind their underdog role and pass it over to the Spurs. All of their players were focused in making this happen, from the starters to the bench, and they wanted to do it big.
With five players with double digits –Zach Randolph, Tony Allen, Mike Conley, Darrell Arthur and O.J. Mayo- plus the non despicable sum of 49 points from the bench, the Grizzlies outplayed the Spurs with a resounding 86-104 victory.
Winning by an 18 point margin against the number No. 1 seeded and placing themselves on the lead 3-1 means that the surprise would now be that the Spurs manage to come from behind and win the series, and not the Grizzlies being eliminated.
It is a big challenge what the Spurs will have to face now, for only eight teams in history have been able to overcome a 3-1 situation successfully. Not to forget the boost that these three wins has given to the Memphis, which will make of them an even tougher rival to defeat.

Barcelona and Manchester are closer to the 2009 final reedit
Just like it happened two years ago these two teams have plenty of chances to meet again in the UEFA Champions League final after winning on the road their respective games by 2-0.
A scent of revenge is in the air. Manchester United rubs its hands as they are just one game away from another showdown against Barcelona, team that defeated them in the 2009 UEFA Champions League final by 2-0. Not only do they want to be crowned as the new king of Europe, but also finish a pending business with the Catalonians that still hurts their pride, and championship they feel they owe to their fans.
The Red Devils took a big step towards that goal this past Tuesday by defeating Schalke 04 on the road by 2-0 during the first of two games of the semifinals. The squad from Germany that is considered to be the Cinderella of the competition was unable to stun Manchester United like they did with the defending champions Inter in the quarterfinals. They found no response for two second half goals scored by Giggs and Rooney that cost them the painful defeat.
Far from being that aggressive and dangerous team that upset Inter, the semifinals version of Schalke didn’t even intimidate the goal defended by van der Sar. Raul, their reference in attack, had a very discrete game and the team resented it.
For the next game Schalke must show a different attitude if they want to stand a chance, and will also need a big dose of luck to overcome a two goal disadvantage on the road when they visit Manchester United next Wednesday.
A very similar story was lived at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium during the other semifinals showdown between Real Madrid and Barcelona. The Whites didn’t make the best of their home field advantage and ended up losing to their archrival by 0-2, in a game were their scheme left much to desire from a team the has won nine Champions League titles, and did nothing but defend themselves.
Barcelona ended the game with 71% of possession, and that pretty much summarizes what the game was: a team trying to break through the Whites’ defensive wall. The Catalonians couldn’t convert that dominance into goals until Pepe got a red card product of a hard foul on Alves, which left Real Madrid with ten players and more exposed in defense. Their coach Mourinho also saw a red card for protesting.
Just 15 minutes later Affelay was able to cross a ball for Messi to score his first of two goals of the night. And at minute 87 Messi again was going to give Barcelona the definite two goal lead after a great individual play leaving rivals on the way to send the ball to the farthest post of the goal defended by Casillas.
Barcelona will now try to seal their pass to the final to be disputed at Wembley this coming Tuesday at home when they receive Real Madrid to put an end to a series that is pretty much decided on their favor.

Get Your Swing On With These Great Golf Tips
If you are on the lookout for a challenging, involved sport that requires strategy and technical know-how, look not further than the sport of golf. Golf is relatively easy to learn. Read this article to find out what you need to know to start playing and enjoying yourself.
When you hit the ball, the club's face needs to be square to it. Doing so will allow the ball to travel along a straighter path. Unless the club is aligned with the ball, it is unlikely that your shot will be as controlled as you would like it to be. Practice holding the club in different grips until you achieve the desired 90 degree path of travel.
If you are anxious to start your game, resist the temptation and go to the range to practice for a bit before you start. Save yourself the pain of calibrating your shot on the course.
If you have the opportunity, ask a professional his or her opinion on a club, or certainly on a set of new clubs you are considering purchasing. This is crucial since you need to know what clubs work best for you and so you can get information on the latest clubs.
If you find it hard to shift your weight as you swing and often lean back after you hit the ball, spend time practicing your swing with a baseball-type emphasis. By doing a slight lift of your forward foot during the backswing and subsequent step back down through the shot, you can get a better feel for how the body needs to transfer weight forward through the swing.
An old glove isn't always the culprit when you lose your grip with a given club. Check out your grips. It is possible they are worn. It doesn't cost that much to replace club grips and you will instantly notice a change in your swing.
Lost golf balls are a big, but common expense. Just keep a few of those costly, name brand golf balls. You may want to use them when playing in a tournament, or to impress important people.
When you are at the driving range doing warmups, start your sessions out with lofted irons in the 8 or 9 range, or even your pitching wedge. These types of clubs will help you get into your groove and boost your confidence as you build up to harder irons and woods.
You may want to bring nuts or other high-protein food items with you when you play. Although it is a great sport, golf can be exhausting both mentally and physically. Protein will fuel your body and mind, making you less susceptible to mental drain and muscle fatigue; this allows you to keep up your endurance all the way to the eighteenth hole.
One of the first things you need to learn about golf is proper club grip. The most common problem when trying to hit the ball far is they tend to have a hard grip on the club. Instead, you should use a grip that is soft, but firm. Hold the club with a very delicate grip, as if you were holding a baby bird or a child.
Maintain a relaxed state as you address the ball. This is a common mistake that will impact your game. It's important to stay relaxed while maintaining the proper posture. Do not be stiff!
You have to remember to always keep your game of golf moving. If you are playing a round slowly, the group behind you may get angry. If your group is slower for any reason, suggest that the faster group just move on ahead.
Ideally, using these tips will make you feel better about getting into golfing. As with most things in life, practice makes perfect, so try your best; apply the tips in this article.
