If you thought having wheels to drag your clubs through the airport was nice, you’ll be amazed by the extendable legs from the ClubGlider. This new system makes moving your golf bag long distances virtually effortless. The four-point base also comes with pivoting wheels, helping you glide from the parking lot through the airport quickly and easily. ClubGlider offers the protection and storage space of most traditional golf travel bags while eliminating the heavy lifting and constant bending normally required to get through the airport.

ClubGlider was originally one of five finalists from over 1,000 entrants in the Golf Channel “Fore Inventors Only” reality show. As its popularity grew, additional ClubGlider models were introduced to accommodate tour players oversized staff bags or even lightweight carry bags.

The product includes heavy-duty two-way zippers, thick foam padding extending down the travel bag to protect clubheads and shafts, internal storage pockets, internal cinch straps, ballistic fabric, vinyl-reinforced wear areas, and a lift-assist handle. ClubGlider is the latest in innovative products from Sun Mountain, a pioneer in the golf industry for over 30 years.

ClubGlider is available in three different models with retail prices ranging from $199 – $299. For the retailer nearest you call 800-227-9224 or visit the Sun Mountain website.

Wilson Golf just introduced their new new FG Tour V2 and Ci11 irons along with new golf balls. The clubmakers at Wilson Golf worked with their staff of TOUR players on the design, including Harrington, Ricky Barnes and Kevin Streelman.

With a thinner topline and less offset, the V2 irons feature a classic setup that should produce added forgiveness. The black Ci11 irons are geared toward for golfers who are looking for both power and forgiveness. The PVD finish reduces the visual size of the golf club head, diminishing glare at address. The Ci11′s thinner, harder face promotes the maximum CT allowed by the USGA for stronger golf ball flight and increased distance.

Wilson also introduced the FG Tour X Golf Ball, which is a multilayer urethane ball. Somewhat similar in design to the Titleist Pro V1x, the Wilson FG Tour X golf ball delivers exceptional distance, shot-stopping spin and Tour caliber feel.

Wilson Golf 2012 Products Introduced

As with most golf equipment, much of your success will depend on how well your club fits your body and your swing. With a general length range of between 40 to 45 inches, belly putters feature a much longer shaft compared to traditional putters, which typically come in lengths of 33 to 35 inches.

There are four major keys to fitting any putter to any golfer. Firstly, the eyes should come to rest over the ball, directly above the target line. This helps make sure the leading edge of the putter is lined up at a right angle to the intended target.

Secondly, your arms should hang directly under your shoulders with a slight flex at the elbows. This position promotes a natural pivoting motion along the target path. If the golfer is correctly in the position, it allows them to focus purely on the speed of the stroke.

The third primary key is to make sure your hips are lined up over your heels. This promotes proper balance during the stroke and also allows the golfer to keep their head completely still, which will help achieve consistent contact with the golf ball.

When the hips are centered over the heels, the player is balanced over the center of the feet. When a player is balanced over the center of their feet, they are able to keep their body and head still during the putting stroke which leads to solid and consistent contact with the golf ball.

The final step is where the length of putter shaft comes into play. A properly measured putter should simply connect the distance from where the eyes hit the ground and where the arms hang naturally under the shoulders. The club head of the belly putter should rest flush on the ground. If the toe or heel is off the ground, the ball will tend to travel off line.

Before you purchase your belly putter, make sure you get it properly fit to these standards. An improperly fit belly putter can actually cause your score more harm than your current putter!

4 Steps to Belly Putter Fitting

A South Dakota company recently introduced a shocking new aroma therapy product to help golfers that actually might be better snake oil; it might be the real deal. Play with Trust LLC just launched Swing Trust Oil, a proprietary blend of essential oils including: bergamot, cedar atlas, clary sage, red cedarwood, ylang-ylang and grape seed. The distinctive aroma of this blend can improve golfer’s concentration and relaxation.

Hook the handsome keychain flask on your golf bag and take a whiff of Swing Trust oil throughout your round. Feel a bit anxious on the tee? Take a whiff. Can’t decide what club to hit? Take a whiff.

“Swing Trust Oil is designed to help golfers reduce tension, build confidence in their game and improve their mental focus,” said Chad Van Den Top, President of Play with Trust LLC. “Calming the nerves, eliminating the yips and sharpening one’s focus can help “center” the golfer. Using Swing Trust Oil brings a new dimension to the game that focuses on the mind, rather than technique. When the mind is sharp and clear, it follows that the game is sharp and clear.”

Swing Trust Oil was developed by golf professional Chad Van Den Top who started using different blends of essential oils to create his “swing oil,” taking a sniff of the formulation when he felt the yips coming on or simply needed to gain confidence before a difficult shot. While his playing partners used their own version of “swing oil” (alcohol) to settle their nerves during play, Chad began sharing his aromatherapy blend, thus creating a demand for a natural, non-technique means of enhancing concentration and game performance.
