Eiseles Ultimate Golf Utility Clip

Golfers are continually looking to rid themselves of the annoyances of maintaining all their golf utilities in their pockets.
I hear golfers all the time saying that once they get to the green they start searching for their ball marker or their divot tool.
There are just many many golfers who simply refuse to fill their pockets and find themselves without one of their golf utilities when needed.
Golf outings and most of the golf shows we attend annually most always answer those important golf needs and such was the case this year when we talked with Jeffrey Eisele at the Northcoast New Jersey Golf Show at Somerset, NY in February.
Jeffrey owns and operates his company which is called Eiseles Invention, LLC and after a brief conversation we knew that he indeed had the answer to how golfers can maintain their golf utilities.
His design of The Eiseles Ultimate Golf Utility Clip definitely was created with all golfers in mind. Eiseles Clip helps golfers concentrate on their game and eliminates any discomfort when talking a swing because your pockets are full with balls, tees, ball markers, a divot tool, etc. etc.
The Eiseles Ultimate Golf Utility Clip takes care of it all. It is a perfectly designed leather clip that holds your extra ball, two tees, a divot tool. ball marker and your golf glove.
Jeffrey pointed out that the Clip is hand crafted and designed so that golfers will not even realize they are wearing a clip on their hip. This Leather clip bends around ones hip and does not interfere with you golf swing at all.
The designer of this fine addition to the golf game said that the clip is extremely lightweight and sits perfectly around your hip by clipping either to your belt or your pants.
I have tried mine and because it is made of leather it does form comfortably on the individuals hip.
I can't agree more with the statement that the utility clip makes your game complete as now I'm finally able to have access to all the utilities while playing golf using the Clip.
Jeffrey also noted that the Clip can be personalized for any Country Club, Pro Shop or for any event such as golf outings, tournaments or any type of special occasion.
The Clip is available for either the Left hip or Right hip.
Golfers we talked to at the show who had previously purchased the Clip said this item was an awesome idea and that they use it every round of golf they play.
Eiseles Clip has been voted the Number 1 golf utility clip by Golf Products Review.
I fell in love with mine and its the first thing I put on when I get to the golf course after putting the golf bag on the cart and slipping into my golf shoes.

The Golf Tip
By Robert Menges

The Flop Shot.
With today's golf greens becoming faster and firmer, a shot that has become very popular is the lob or flop shot.
Golfers are trying to get the ball close to the hole, out of thicker rough, by lobbing it up in the air. The 60-degree wedge is allowing the golfer to throw the ball up in the air higher and land it softer to prevent the ball from rolling too far from the hole.
When you are deciding to use the lob shot, make sure you have exhausted all your other options. Jack Nicklaus had a good theory to use. He always said, "putt the ball whenever possible, chip it when you can's putt it, and pitch it when you have to." If you have to try to hip the ball high and land it soft, here are come guidelines to help you.
First, check to see if you have a good lie to be able to make contact. Then when you set up to hit the shot you must open the club face and have a very relaxed grip. How much you open the club will determine how high the ball will go and how much spin you create to land it softly. Because you have opened the club face, you must open your stance to compensate for your aim. You have to make sure you take a good swing and have a good follow through.
The biggest mistake golfers make is decelerating on the way down. You must keep your head still and accelerate through the shot.
A good golfer to watch as they hit the flop shot is Phil Mickelson. He lets his shoulders control the swing, not his hands. Make sure this is the shot to use because you want this shot to help you cut down strokes in your round, not add strokes to your score.

Ed's Outlook

The Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) last weekend said farewell to the Corning Classic and Corning, NY.
Difficult economic times was blamed as the reason the LPGA has pulled out of Corning.
For some 31 years the Corning Classic was a popular tour stop on the LPGA. The event started there is 1979.
The LPGA last year had 12 events during the months of April through June and this year only eight tournaments have been played during the same time frame.
The same economy that played a part in the Corning Classic demise also enabled it to finish with arguably its best overall field ever.
Yani Tseng won the Classic and the tournament will be remembered for a long time to come.
