Pro Duffers West Golf Club
President's Message:
Rules:
Well it has been six months as the President of Pro-Duffers West and I am very excited about this opportunity to continue in the footsteps of the wonderful past Presidents. First, I would like to thank Don Cobb for his wonderful leadership he provided to Pro-Duffers West over the past years, I have big shoes to fill, so I hope I don’t’ drop the baton. It has been a fast pace and exciting six months and the time is flying by quickly. We have had 5 very exciting and successful tournament thus far this year and if they are any indication, the remaining 7 should be just as successful. I would like to thank Charles Vivian for all of his hard work and effort in making the tournaments so successful. I wanted to concentrate on several areas in the fist six months which were:

Increasing the club membership
Revising and updating the club charter
Piloting a player development program
A redesign of the club’s website
Increase player participation at monthly tournaments
Purchasing a club computer
Establishing historical records of the club and tournaments
Participation with other WSGA and SAYPI Golf Clubs
Thus far we are on track to complete the above objectives, so I would like to thank all of you for your support and efforts. The next six months will have its challenges, but I know we will be successful in meeting each one of them head on. Some of the areas we will tackle will be a quarterly newsletter, implementation of the player development program, the annual tournament and the scholarship program to name a few.Lastly, I am truly excited about what lies ahead for the club and serving the club for the remainder of 2008. I will make an effort to play a round with each of you and share some laughs and have some fun. Thank you for this privilege.Keep it in the short grass

Golf tips:
Make improvements in increments.
If you set out on a program to become a better golfer, be patient with your progress and take your improvements in small increments.  Avoid making unrealistic goals such as taking ten shots off of your handicap in one season.  Instead, set out to take two shots off your handicap and have a program that concentrates on eliminating the parts of your game that cause your scores to be high.  Keep track of your progress by charting all your statistics
Lower scores guaranteed.
If you are serious about improving your scores, make this commitment for yourself:  For two weeks, make fifty three-foot putts every day.  If you cannot get to a putting green, use an indoor green or carpet.  Concentrate on every putt, and stroke the ball into the cup.  After the two weeks of training, you will have developed not only an increased skill but great confidence.  Your scores will drop as a result.
Build the correct muscles.
Simply swinging a weighted club may not be of much benefit, as gravity and centrifugal force often do most of the work.  When practicing with a weighted club, swing it back in slow motion.  Hold it in the position at the top of your swing for ten seconds.  Repeat this drill ten times and you will build the golf muscles necessary to keep the club in the proper position.  Swing down and make the club swoosh through the impact zone to build up your club head speed.
