OFFICIAL MEMBER NEWSLETTER OF GOLF CARD INTERNATIONAL SUMMER • 2005 • VOLUME 29 • NUMBER 3 Member’s My entire game could probably use improvement right now, but I know for sure I need help getting off the tee. You see, I’ve recently returned from Iraq after a yearlong deployment, and before I pick up the clubs again and start some bad habits, I want to get some lessons to help me from the start. I just ordered my Golf Card and was looking at the Member Benefits when I saw Member’s Tee. This is just what I need to get back on the links and start enjoying golf again. Before getting deployed to Iraq, I was a 12 handicap and have been playing for about five years. This would be great for me. I hope I get lucky enough for the free private lessons. TEE Henry Thomas, Marietta, Georgia Master Sergeant, Army National Guard Clinton, North Carolina Hank has not played since returning from Iraq and has been to the range only twice. He said he hit a lot of shots thin. To help get him back on the right track, we arranged for a lesson with Bern Coulter, the teaching pro at Golf Card affiliate Magnolia Greens Golf Plantation in Wilmington, North Carolina. Though Hank was looking for help getting off the tee, Bern evaluated Hank’s swing for iron shots as well. Bern explained to Hank that after a year’s layoff he should concentrate on his swing mechanics, try to enjoy the game again and get back to and possibly improve on his 12 handicap. 7,000 Members Sign Up to Test Bridgestone Balls A chance to receive and test a FREE two-ball sleeve of Bridgestone balls attracted a record 7,000 members to sign up and participate. This exclusive benefit of Golf Card membership is available to members who register either by sending in a form included in their membership packages or via the Web site www.golfcard.com. With the Bridgestone test, members were sent either the Tour B330 or Precept models based on their handicap. They were then asked to test the balls and provide feedback through a special feedback section on the Bridgestone Golf web site. In addition, any Golf Card member testing the Tour B330 and responding via the Bridgestone web site is entered to win a Bridgestone J33R driver through a random drawing, and any member testing and Bern stressed three essential basics: 1. grip and grip pressure 2. swinging arms correctly 3. weight shift, something that exists in any sport that includes a “stick and a ball,” like baseball, hockey and tennis Bern explained the grip fundamentals — palms parallel to each other — something Hank was not doing. He changed Hank’s grip slightly to get to a better position. Hank worked on his grip for a while until he became comfortable with the adjustments. (continued on p. 7) providing feedback on the Precept model was eligible to win a Precept EC Fuel Driver. Just a reminder to any member who has not yet responded, the deadline is July 30 to be entered in the driver drawings. Since the testing is continuing through July 30, results are unknown at this time. To sign up for future product testing (as manufacturers participate), go to www.golfcard.com/benefits and click on the product testing form link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m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Ï&53"%&'*/"/$*"-$PSQ"MMSJHIUTSFTFSWFE 3 JUST IN…PREVIEWS OF THE NEWEST GOLF CARD COURSES low trees.

For those of you who haven’t played golf in this area, I strongly encourage you to plan a trip sometime soon. The golf is plentiful, wonderful and affordable. And the best news is that you can save even more with your Golf Card membership. COURSE OPERATIONS Supervisor • Cheryl Smith cdsmith@golfcard.com Eastern Coordinator • Johanna Oland joland@golfcard.com I had the pleasure to play Grossinger Country Club with Golf Traveler Editor Ken Cohen as our host. Ken grew up playing Grossinger’s and is a top amateur golfer in this region. I can say without hesitation that Grossinger’s is a must-play course, if you are ever in the area. The course would hold its own with many of the top private clubs in the New York metropolitan area in terms of its layout and scenic beauty. It was one of the most memorable courses I have played in quite some time. So be sure to treat yourself to a round at Grossinger’s sometime soon. I guarantee it will be unforgettable. About 25 miles west of Grossinger’s stands Villa Roma Country Club, the site of the Golf Card tournament. We sold out the tournament at 140 players, and despite threatening clouds the weather held out, and we enjoyed a great round of golf. Villa Roma’s renowned cuisine at the awards banquet dinner was as brilliant as the golf. See the tournament photos and write-up on pages 10 and 11 of this issue. As with Grossinger’s, be sure to make time to play Villa Roma. It’s a fun and very scenic course, and head pro Matt Kleiner will make sure you enjoy a great round of golf.

The Real Thing for Rust Shank You Very Much I have always had a rust problem on my Scotty Cameron Newport putter, no matter how often I wiped it on a wet day, rust would show up. I used to scrub away with Brasso and an old toothbrush. While playing at Bears Best in Las Vegas, I mentioned this to our caddie, Scott Giroux and he suggested I soak it overnight in Coke or Pepsi. I was amazed at the result — no rust and it looked like new. I also did the same to my favorite 20-year-old sand wedge and it came out looking great as well. So if any of you have a rust problem, try this. You will be in awe. I will describe my first hole in one. It was a hot day, and two friends of mine and I were playing in a three-man scramble at Metropolis Country Club in Illinois. The sixth hole is a tricky little 110-yard hole. At that time, I had the shanks so bad, that I could not hit an iron. Well, anyway, I told my group that I would hit first, as I could not help on this hole. I took out a 5 iron, swung, and the ball went into the hole. Typically, this is a wedge, maybe a 9 iron, if the wind is blowing. Now, the good part. My name came out in the local paper, and I had more than one person call me about the shot. However, everyone would ask “you did not hit a five-iron, did you?” I would politely, say, yes, and “I hit it good.” Ray Provost Montreal, Canada Jim Turner Wickliffe, KY These members just earned $50 from Member to Member, a new benefit in 2005 that allows Golf Card members to share information with other members and ask questions about using the Golf Card.

Here, you can see his stance is too closed, his right finger is too extended down the shaft, his palms aren’t facing each other and his chin is a little low. ❷ Hank’s backswing was a little inside and abbreviated, forcing his elbow to fly outside and his weight shift to fall short of getting completely to his right side. After Next, Bern worked on Hank’s arm swing, trying to keep his arms (specifically his elbows) close to each other on both the backswing and the follow-through. Hank had a tendency to open up his arms (left elbow flying out) on his follow-through. This flying out produced a shortening of his swing at impact, which resulted in topped or thin shots. After — ➊ Hank’s grip is much better here — notice how his right forefinger is wrapped around the shaft, not extending down it. Also his stance seems to be more square. ❷ As Bern instructed, Hank is keeping his right elbow close to his body on the downswing, which will also help him rotate the club through at impact. ❸ Hank is making a full turn here, properly shifting his weight to his right side. Also, notice how his right elbow is not flying out. ❹ To stop hitting thin shots with his irons, Hank worked on making a descending blow with his irons and taking a small divot on his practice swings. ➊ ❷ Hank’s thin shots were also attributable to his position at impact — more often than not, he kept his clubface square to open during impact and follow-through, instead of square to closed. In other words, he was not releasing the club properly through the ball and tending to hold onto the shot too long. Bern suggested that Hank try to take a small divot on his practice swings, something he wasn’t doing. Member’s TEE Finally, Bern worked with Hank on his swing arc, specifically where the low point should be relative to his irons versus his driver. For example, he should try to hit his irons with a descending blow while hitting his driver on the upswing. Hank immediately responded to this tip, hitting his iron shots much more crisply and hitting his driver with a higher flight pattern. Follow-Up: Big Improvement Ben Bruce, the first recipient of a free lesson through our exclusive Member’s Tee benefit, reports remarkable progress since his lesson with Heath Davis of Golf Card affiliate Chestatee Golf Club in Marietta, Ga. ❸ ❹ The 80-year-old Bruce, who came to Davis with a 20 handicap, said that he has equaled or bettered his age four times since the lesson and has lowered his handicap index to 14.3. His score of 80 at his home course of Canterbury Golf Club on April 20 was the first time he ever shot his age. He said the round came the day after he received the Spring 2005 issue of Golf Traveler featuring his lesson in the “Members Tee” section. “I did have to birdie the 18th hole to get the 80, but I didn't realize that until the round was over or I'm sure I would have choked,” said Bruce, who credits Davis with this “dramatic” improvement in his game. “But now I have to give more strokes to my buddies!” reminds Bruce. MEMBER’S TEE is a new benefit that allows Golf Card members to write in with swing problems or flaws. We will review these submissions and choose one to be addressed in each issue of Golf Traveler. It’s our intention to have experienced PGA professionals at Golf Card–affiliated courses provide personal, step-by-step lessons — with detailed photos — to help correct the swing problem or flaw. So if your swing or some aspect of your game is letting you down, simply e-mail us at memberstee@golfcard.com with the problems you’re experiencing. Please include a brief description of what your swing tendencies are and what you’d like to see corrected. We look forward to your submissions and helping in any way we can. PF-2 7x10C 5/2/05 9:45 AM Page 1 SPORTS TECH NEWS–2005 New golf club automatically corrects a bad putt; boosts accuracy by a third. Protects golfers four ways. Senior Pro’s secret weapon NEW BRANFORD, CT—There’s an old saw that says golfers drive for show and putt for dough. That last part explains why a Senior Pro I know bought a new putter literally off the table while touring a golfclub factory in China. He dropped his score his first round with it. A test among sixteen U. S. golfers by Charlie Allen who compared it to their own putters showed the new club increased their sink and “gimme” rates by a third, an improvement that will improve their scores significantly. The secret to the putter’s accuracy is its ability to automatically correct a matter which of these errors a golfer commits, within limits, the rounded face will overcome it by presenting a hitting surface to the ball that’s on-target and bounce-free (see diagrams). The horizontal curve keeps the ball on target; the vertical curve keeps it rolling smoothly. It’s the only putter that can do this and my friend bought it on the spot. I asked him what happens if a golfer makes a perfect stroke. “If I make perfect contact, there’s no need for a correction, so there is none. The putter sends the ball dead to the pin with a smooth roll. The thing is absolutely ingenious.” “How well does it aim?” I asked. “The long target line across the top let’s me sight it like a rifle. The white lines in front and back of the main target line make sure I keep the clubhead flat to the green. That’s critical on slopes. Sixteen golfers rolled their putts 25% closer to the cup with this putter than they did, on average, with their own. Because of its flawless delivery, distance control increases dramatically.” “I gather you like the putter.” “I almost stole it!” Condor® P-4 bad stroke. Even the best professionals on the Tour often turn their putter slightly at contact and push the ball to the right, or pull it to the left. In the “dough” part of golf, it doesn’t take much of a push or 16 Golfers, 800 Putts pull to miss a four-inch-wide Sinks & Gimmes hole. 84% Another common error is New 66% scooping or chopP-4 ping the ball, causing it to Own bounce or skid off Putter course. Putts have to roll smoothly, like a cue ball, to be accurate. The windfall my friend saw laying on the table was something he had never seen before -- a putter that automatically corrects all four of these errors. Its face is rounded vertically to correct scoops and chops and horizontally to correct pushes and pulls. No Automatically keeps chop and scoop rolling smoothly. Automatically corrects push and pull Push Pull New club’s scientifically rounded face automatically protects golfers against putting's four most common errors. The new putter is due in the U. S. in about two weeks, thanks to a small company in Connecticut that grabbed the distribution rights. The company says based on tests among golfers who used it versus their own putter, a golfer should cut at least four stokes. If you want to go for the dough with a secret weapon, I would get on the company’s waiting list and call 1-800285-3900 anytime or day or click www.ngcgolf.com. You can also mail your name, address and a check (or cc number and expiration date) to NGC Golf (Dept. PF-22), 60 Church St., Yalesville, CT 06492. The putter has a double-bend, face-balanced, stainless-steel shaft, and comes with a free head cover. There’s a 30-day guarantee.

Participants enjoyed the friendly but challenging Villa Roma course as well as the buffet dinner afterward. Those who had never played the Villa before were already asking when the Golf Card would return there — the scenery, facilities and service are second-to-none in this part of the western Catskills. The Golf Card plans to return to the Villa Roma in 2006 but will be coming back close to the area this October when it hosts a Member–Guest Tournament at Pocono Manor in the Poconos. To register for the Pocono Manor tournament, call the Golf Card Tournament hotline at 877-288-4802.

Grassel, credited with starting the second Grasshopper Club for Golf Card International, died on May 8 in Shelby, Ohio. Steve was sales manager at Moorhead Ford for many years and retired from Sprint. He enjoyed woodworking in addition to golf. He was a member of Golf Card International from 1976 until his death and started the Ohio Grasshopper Club — only the second Grasshopper club in the country at the time. He was also a charter member of the Police Auxiliary. Despite less-than-ideal weather conditions, The Villa Roma Member-Guest attracted a full field of 140 golfers, including Golf Card executive staff, fathers and sons, husbands and wives, good friends and, most of all, enthusiastic members who enjoyed the resort’s beautiful surroundings and first-class service. “He was a quiet, very nice man, a real gentleman,” remembers Phyllis Hess, current director of the Central Ohio Grasshoppers. “One time while playing in one of my outings in West Virginia, it started to rain, but Maryalice, Steve's wife and I were hitting them pretty good in the rain as were Steve and my husband, Dave. So we kept on playing. We arrived back at the club house drenched but happy. We have laughed about that many times. We just hadn't considered quitting.” Steve was a Navy veteran, having served in Pearl Harbor and was a lifetime member of American Legion Post #16, the Liederkranz and St. Peter’s Catholic Church. 12 Historic Pocono Manor Inn to Host Fall Member–Guest Tournament Pocono Manor East is a Donald Ross classic in the heart of the Pocono Mountains. Pocono Manor East, one of the few vintage Donald Ross courses in the Golf Card network, will host a Member–Guest Tournament on Tuesday, October 4. To enter, call the Golf Card Tournament Hotline at 877-288-4802. See the accompanying summary box for tournament format and details. Relatively short at 6,480 yards, the East Course’s fairways are narrow and hilly, while the greens are on the small side. Grass bunkers add a Scottishlinks flavor common to many of Ross’ early courses. The 77-yard seventh hole might be the most famous par-three in the Northeast — a dastardly downhill shot that Director of Tournament Summary Golf Greg Wall says is best hit “by taking a sand wedge back about hip high, and if it Date: . . . . . . . . . . .October 4, 2005 feels like you’re going to chip it in the water, you’ll probably be on the green.” Time: . . . . . . . . . . .Noon shotgun start Wall is the son of former Masters champion Art Wall, who lived in the area and played out of Pocono Manor during the 1950s and ’60s. Many of the game’s legends have played Pocono Manor over the years, including Sam Snead, Arnold Palmer, Tommy Bolt, Gene Littler, Doug Ford, Jackie Burke and Jerry Barber. Located just 90 minutes from New York City, the Pocono Manor Inn is a registered National Historic District, referred to by local residents as “the grand old lady of the mountains.” Set atop the Pocono Mountains, it is known for Old World charm and breathtaking views. The surrounding mountainsides are filled with beautiful laurel and rhododendrons. In addition to the East Course, the 36-hole complex includes the newer George Fazio–designed West Course.

George Cobb designed a short, hilly, very fair course that is as much fun to play as it is to look at. Golf Card International is again teaming with High Hampton to cosponsor this weeklong Senior Tournament. An all-inclusive entry fee of $932 per person for two golfers/double occupancy covers five days of golf, accommodations, meals, prizes, awards, banquets, reception and gratuities.

The golf competition will be played as a combination of individual and team events with a Hole-In-One Shootout scheduled for Friday, September 23. Every day will be a different format.
