Alignment
 

Remember that you have 2 alignment lines.

Use the analogy of a railroad track.

The first is the target line. This is the line from the ball to the target. This is the line to which leading edge of your club head is lined up.

The second is the body line or power line. This line is parallel and left of your target line.

Always check each line on each shot.

Good Grip
 

left hand placement - club mostly in palm, V of thumb and finger should face the right shoulder. Right-hand placement space – club mostly in fingers, V of thumb and finger should face the right shoulder. Left thumb fits snug between her right thumb and pinky finger pad.

Luongo & Sundin Will Make A Difference!
 

Roberto Luongo will soon be back from his groin injury & Matt Sundin will join the Vancouver Canucks in January. Vancouver is currently in second place in their division, so the addition of these superstars will bode well for the team. This should be an interesting 2009. The Canucks will be a tough team to beat the rest of the year!!!

Trevor Linden's Retirement
 

A great day to come in Vancouver Canucks history. Trevor Linden is the greatest Canuck ever. He has changed the role of the professional athlete in BC by setting the community-service bar so high. Wednesday is the day. Congrats and thanks Trevor!!!

Complaining by Morelia Midfielder
 

The midfielder was complaining a lot about penalties. @#$%!, @#$%! @#$%!. Too because the weather was @#$%!.

Luongo Shutout Streak?
 

Can the captain of the Vancouver Canucks, Roberto Luongo, add another shutout to his current 3 game shut out streak? Joe Sakic is out with back pain, so the Colorado Rockies are a little short-manned offensively. Could be 4 in a row!

Steve Nash's year?
 

Steve Nash heads into 08/09 with the same cast of characters and a new coach. Everyone's a year older, especially Shaq. I wonder how Steve Nash will play?

When Will Tiger Come Back?
 

With Sergio Garcia sneaking up on the #1 golfer ranking is Tiger getting worried? He'll be away until 2009, potentially as long as the Masters in April. This is a great time for a threat to come in and make their presence known. And when Tiger gets back, who says he'll be in winning form immediately. Sergio has a better chance with momentum. Should be interesting!

Maria Sharapova
 

Tennis is one of the most famous sports in the world. More than 80% of countries have at least one professional tennis players, and some countries like USA and Russia have hundreds of professional players. Among the Russian professional tennis players, the most popular “star” player is Maria Sharapova (21) who was the former number one woman tennis player in the world.

Maria was born in Nyagan, Soviet Union - a really cold and barren place. Nevertheless, she had an unbelievable ability of playing tennis when she was young. So her father, Yuri Sharapov, decided to raise her as a professional tennis player.
