Golfers Look For Pain
Relief
The popularity of magnetic therapy and the introduction of a revolutionary
product developed for people that suffer from osteoarthritis,
rheumatic arthritis along with chronic back and neck pain is always a popular
topic of discussion with golfers.
When visiting recently on the telephone with Sami
Int. company representative Michelle Kaleta she explained that the Golfers
Pain Relief product is used externally to treat serious problems such as dull
aching pain in the lumbar region of the back, rheumatic pain, extreme cases of
arthritis, sports injuries and neck and muscle joint pain.
Michelle noted that this product is so effective as a pain reliever because it
contains a special blend of natural powerful herbs with a high concentration of
Capsicum, St. John's Wort and Boswellia Serrata.
Sami International Inc. president and chief executive officer Michelle Callahan
prior to starting her own company in 1999, spent 17 years launching new products
for companies such as Revlon and the Lancaster Group.
The Golfers Pain Relief product was first introduced in 2003. When Michelle
started the company in 1999 they began as a manufacturer of hand and nail skin
care products that sold to salons and spas.
Having suffered from knee injuries along with neck and back injuries and pain
and some arthritis the only way to tell if a product like this works is to try
it. We have been using this product several years now and find it offering great
relief from the injuries I have and there is relief from arthritis
pain.
Sami International also specializes in magnetic therapy
bracelets.
Ms. Kaleta carefully explained that their bracelets contain 3000 Gauss on every
link.
Magnetic therapy is today an ancient tool for modern times and the bracelets
have proven to be effective in relieving pain from arthritis, tendinitis,
headaches, muscle strains, carpel tunnel syndrome as well as in speeding the
healing of wounds and injuries.
Michelle Kaleta pointed out that the use of magnets as pain therapy for
alternative health purposes and other forms of homeopathy goes back to ancient
China.
Magnets are man-made, with either a ceramic or neodymium housing. The latter are
considered the best. The magnetic energy can be controlled as to its positive
and negative charge and the amount of each.....which is called a Gauss rating.
The higher the Gauss, the stronger the magnet. Negative energy is considered the
most effective for pain relief.
The magnetic bracelet is popular and while spending a day of golf at your local
course you will find many people wearing these bracelets. The king himself,
Arnold Palmer wears a magnetic bracelet.

The Golf
Tip
By Robert
Menges
Preventing
the Flying Right Elbow:
The
flying right elbow is one of the game's best known negative
touchstones.
It occurs in the back swing when the elbow just out behind the player so the
right arm forms the letter V or L, depending on the angle from which you view
it.
What's wrong with a flying right elbow?
It restricts the width or arc of the back swing, for one thing. It also makes it
difficult to get the shaft parallel at the top of the swing with the longer
clubs, a restriction that reduces power.
Finally, you don't want the elbow jutting out in the downswing because this also
limits power and adds inaccuracy to the mix.
So, you must drop down and in toward your right side. This connection is an
extra move that must be made in less than a second of real
time.
However, trying to keep the elbow in close is too restrictive. It prevents a
free-flowing overall swing motion and narrows the width of the back swing, both
of which costs power.
The right elbow can move away from the right side so long as it remains pointed
down toward the ground and in a viable effective position. This will generate
fluidity in the swing and allow the elbow to easily and readily return to or
near the right side in the downswing.
You do want the elbow close to the body in the downswing because it
keeps the club moving from the inside.
To put it another way and more meaningful, it prevents the club from going "over
the top" and cutting the ball from outside to inside the target line at
impact.
Which is to say, with the right elbow in close to your side at impact, you are
much less likely to hit a slice.
Indeed, there is a very good chance you will get a nice little draw on the
ball.

The Putting
Tip
By Joe
Bermel
The miscue of golfers is that on short putts, especially, they decelerate on the
forward stroke.
Golfers need to do the exact opposite, that is accelerate on the forward
stroke.
Short putting is from a tap up to 6 ft., the "holy grail" of
putting.
Paramount to be proficient here......Your 2ed putt on every hole is between a
tap in and up to 6 ft.
How many of these 18 you make or do not make will determine your
score.

Ed's
Outlook
Upon reflection, what was worse? Tiger Woods performance at the Masters or his
behavior? Neither was anything to get excited about. Woods' tie for 40th was his
worst at the Masters as a pro and his worst finish in a major championship as a
pro in which he played 72 holes.
Then there was his frustration, which came out in full force, swearing at
audible levels and the drop kick of his 9-iron during the second round after a
poor shot at the 16th hole.
He deservedly caught a lot of heat for his outburst.
