Swinging Like Arnie
Golf, that relaxing ball game played on rolling green fields of silence and beauty, captivates millions of people the world over. Anyone who loves golf must know that Arnold Palmer is arguably the greatest golfer of all time, having earned ninety-two championship titles over his career. He won the Masters four times, the U.S. Open once, and the British Open twice. Palmer is undoubtedly the best of the best. So, golfing enthusiasts wonder, how can the average player get a perfect golf swing, too?
To be certain, the likes of Palmer are few and far between. He started playing golf when he was only four, a time when most people’s greatest accomplishment has been mastering the potty. His father played golf, too, so this is a game he’d literally been around his entire life. Every job he held as a teen and young adult was on a golf course, so naturally, any natural talent he had was further honed by daily immersion in the sport. In fact, there were only three years that he stayed away from his perfect golf swing. In college, a close friend passed suddenly, and Palmer’s grief led him to drop out of school and join the Coast Guard. But the call of the greens was persistent, and he soon returned.
As Palmer amassed more titles and awards, his following of fans grew exponentially. Recognized world-wide, this golfing legend has inspired millions of amateur golfers to emulate his perfect golf swing. The PGA Hall of Famer is a golfing superstar who turned golf into a true spectator sport. Millions of children and adults decided they wanted to be just like him and watched his every move, trying to imitate their idol every chance they got.
Let’s face it - Palmer is a legend; his perfect golf swing can't be matched. Nonetheless, it cannot hurt to try, now can it? To aid the fledgling golfer in the quest for the perfect golf swing, there are a mass of books and videos promising to teach anyone the tricks that Palmer perfected. Spanning nearly fifty years, these titles range from biographically-inspired pieces to the art of putting. Somewhere in there, the perfect golf swing Palmer exhibited is yours for the taking.

Golf Putting Instruction - The Missing Link - Distance Control
Putting is such a finicky part of the game. There are as many putters, gadgets, grips and styles as there are people putting. Each of these items all saying they will "improve your putting", but have little to no effect on you overall golf score.
But still, with all of the books, putting aids and techniques, most golfers still rarely improve enough to make a difference in their golf score. They continue to get frustrated and don't enjoy the game as much as they should and could.
Putting is the usual culprit to ruining a golf game. You can make up for bad shots getting to the green, but once you miss the putt, you missed it and you are not going to get it back. It is just a wasted shot.
Why is this? The answer is Simple. Distance control is still not being taught or understood. You can have the best stroke there is, the latest putter on the market, but if you can't control your distance, it does no good what so ever.
Hitting the golf ball 3 feet past the hole and then do the same thing coming back is worthless. All this causes is a lot of grief, embarrassment and a lot of bogie's or more on your score card and your golf score and golf handicap remaining high.
So what is the Answer? I will share part of the answer with you now. The rest is included in the Putt Lights Out eBook, golf instruction putting book.
The problem that all golfers have is they are guessing how hard to hit the ball. You can notguess. You have to know. No one teaches you this. How far do you take the club back? How hard do I hit the golf ball to make it go a certain distance? These are important question to know the answer's too if you want to make a lot of putts.
One of your keys to successful distance control is you must have a tempo that works for you. The better your tempo, the better your distance control. This is one answer. But which tempo is good for
you? I can tell you, you do it naturally. I will teach you your natural tempo in the system. Then we will learn some other techniques as well and use it to our advantage and kick the pants off of our competition...

Free Horse Racing Tips For January From Malcolm Heyhoe
There is no more appropriate place to begin racing in the new year of 2007 than Cheltenham racecourse, the hallowed home of the National Hunt game. The clock is already ticking down to the Festival in March and all eyes will be upon the results of races at Cheltenham’s New Year meeting on January 1st, and at the late January fixture on the 27th of the month.
Two races stand out on Cheltenham’s New Year card beginning with the Dipper Novices’ Chase which was won last year by The Listener who claimed among his victims Star de Mohaison, who then went on to reverse New Year’s day form with the winner in the Royal & SunAlliance Chase at the Festival just over ten weeks’ later.
Backers should keep an eye on this race with regard to the prospects any SunAlliance contenders. Both Don’t Push It and Mr Pointment, first and second over course and distance last time, should again figure prominently.
Cheltenham’s feature handicap on the same day is the Unicoin Homes Handicap Chase which was landed twelve months ago by Fondmort, a course specialist and it may well be that the Nicky Henderson team will be keen to keep up their good work in this well-contested handicap with either Crozan or Mariah Rollins.
Sandown on January 6 is the next port of call for the jumping caravan and the feature race on this traditional curtain-raiser is the Tolworth Hurdle, a grade contest for up-and-coming young novice hurdlers. The roll of honour is an illustrious one with past winners such as Best Mate, Monsignor, French Holly and Behrajan all turning out to be stars of the future.
Whatever trainer Paul Nicholls sends to this valuable prize should be worth a second look while fancied horses tend to hold sway too with the market leaders dominating the outcome of this two miles and half a furlong race. Beware also of Irish raiders: there have been a number in recent seasons but all have returned home empty-handed.
The following week on January 13 Warwick comes into its own with the staging of the valuable totesport Classic Handicap Chase, a contest that sorts out the true stayers from the rest. Increased prize-money in recent seasons has seen the level of competition for this race reach fever pitch and thorough stayers with a sound jumping technique are required for the race.
Once again any runners from the Paul Nicholls will bear close scrutiny while Alan King’s D’Argent is likely to attempt a follow-up to his recent big Cheltenham handicap success and this course specialist should go close. Emma Lavelle, meanwhile, may also aim her progressive stayer Tana River at this prize and his front-running style should be suited to this fair and galloping course.
The best race of the whole month takes place at Ascot on January 20 when the Victor Chandler Chase returns to its rightful home after a temporary berth at Cheltenham last year because of the controversial re-building programme at Ascot racecourse.
This classy two-mile handicap is always a contest to savour. Paul Nicholls’ record in the race is a fine one, having landed the race twice in the past decade courtesy of Call Equiname in 1999 and Young Devereaux in 2003 as well experiencing a couple of close seconds with the inimitable Azertyuiop, who valiantly attempted to concede the crippling burden of 19lb to Isio in 2004 in what turned out to be one of the great race’s most memorable finishes.
This time around Nicholls has the first two in the Chandler ante-post market including his great white hope Sporazene, who has not seemed the most natural of chasers but a couple of confidence-boosting success in graduation chases have seen the gelding achieve a more plausible look as a smart two-mile chaser. He may sidestep the race, however, and wit for next month’s Game Spirit Chase at Newbury.
Nicholls also relies upon Sainstaire, a winner on his first start for the stable at Newbury last time. Previously in the care of Nicky Henderson, Saintsaire hasn’t been the most consistent of chasers and it’ll be interesting to see if he shrivels up when confronted with the Chandler challenge. Of the others, the Philip Hobbs-trained Kalca Mome is a likely starter but would need to improve again while Ireland’s Mansony may represent Arthur Moore.
Over at Haydock on January 20 there’s the Champion Hurdle Trial at the Lancashire course. Al Eile landed the spoils for the Irish twelve months ago and any representatives from across the Irish Sea will be worth close consideration. Look out also for any horses that David Pipe runs in this race. His father Martin has always aimed a good horse at the race and was successful in 2002 with Rodock. Perhaps Acambo, the stable’s recent Ladbroke Hurdle winner might be a candidate this time.
January’s jumps action comes full circle on the 27th of the month with a full-scale trial fixture for The Festival in March. The feature race has to be the Letheby & Christopher Chase (formerly the Pillar Chase) and this is a classy and influential trial for the Gold Cup. Indeed Looks Like Trouble landed the Pillar before going on to Gold Cup glory in 2000.
Horses that have run with credit in the King George VI and Charlie Hall Chases earlier in the season tend to come on and do well at Cheltenham. This time around David Pipe is aiming Our Vic at the race after the gelding’s destruction of a good-class field in the Charlie Hall Chase at Wetherby in late October. Ireland’s rising star In Compliance is another that has been floated as a possible runner and his presence in the field would add extra spice to the race.
The other big race on the Cheltenham card is the highly competitive and always instructive Ladbrokes Trophy Handicap Chase. Lightly-raced and second season chasers often come out on top here and Paul Webber’s No Full and Henry Daly’s Billyvodan are a couple of likely types for this valuable prize. If the ground dries out then maybe Taranis can finally come good for the Paul Nicholls stable. He has run well on unsuitably soft ground on his last two starts over course and distance.
