The Media Group Offers Holiday Suggestions

Eazy Bag - Easy on Your Clubs...Easy On You

The Eazy Bag from LT Golf offers features not seen in other golf bags on the market. The unique front opening or gate provides easy access and removal of your clubs and eliminates the need to lift the clubs up and over the edge of the bag. This can greatly reduce the strain on the shoulders and back during your round. These features make golf a little easier for those who find it difficult to lift their clubs up and out of a traditional golf bag, specifically seniors or for those dealing with restricted movement due to arthritis or arm and shoulder injuries. The Eazy Bag features wheels on its base which eliminates the need to lift or carry your bag around, simply remove it from your vehicle and wheel it to your golf cart. The unique semi-circle Club Lock System keeps your clubs secure and organized and protects them from being damaged. Recessed divots in the bottom of the bag guide your clubs into place and keep them from bouncing or rattling around while your drive around the course. Ample side pockets hold personal items, windbreakers, balls, golf tools, etc. during your round.

Available in these colors: Navy/Silver, Black/Silver, Fuschia/Gray, and Zebra Pattern.

For more information on The Eazy Bag call (830) 257-9207 or visit www.eazygolfbag.com

IGOTCHA® UltimateXL Golf Ball Retriever- #1 Retriever in Golf

Pro Line Sports, manufacturers of the original IGOTCHA® golf ball retriever, The #1 Selling Golf Ball Retrievers in Golf, has created the "Granddaddy of all Golf Ball Retrievers". The new IGOTCHA® UltimateXL golf ball retriever is longer and stronger than any other golf ball retriever on the market, but is still compact enough to easily hide away in your golf bag.

The IGOTCHA® Ultimate XL collapses to only 20 inches, yet it can extend to an amazing 18 ft. reach with your arm! Its stainless steel shaft is durable, compact and weighs only 20 oz. Until now, only full size bulky aluminum retrievers were anywhere near that long. Only Pro Line Sports technology could make this happen. It is remarkably solid and resistant to bending. This must-have item will pay for itself over and over as you easily retrieve your expensive golf balls from water, bushes, rocks, mud or sand.

The IGOTCHA® UltimateXL Golf Ball Retriever can also be imprinted with your custom logo, making it the perfect gift for your corporate giveaways or golf outing!

For more information on the Ultimate XL Golf Ball Retriever call (888) 400-7413 or visit www.prolinesports.biz

Polara Golf's Ultimate Straight Self-Correcting Golf Balls

If you're a recreational golfer who struggles with hooking or slicing the ball off the tee, the new Polara Ultimate Straight golf balls are exactly what you've been looking for. The Self Correcting Technology™ of the Polara golf balls is guaranteed to correct hooks and slices up to 75%. Now you can walk up to the tee with confidence because Polara will keep you in the fairway every time! It's all about the ground breaking technology that Polara has developed and the orientation of the ball. At the heart of the Self-Correcting Technology™ is the Polara golf ball's asymmetrical dimple pattern. Every golf ball has three types of dimples: deep, shallow and small; all designed with a specific purpose. The key to the ball's straight performance is how the three different types of dimples are arranged on the ball's surface. When the Polara golf ball is placed on the tee with the side stamp arrow pointing towards the target the Self-Correcting Technology™ delivers the straightest drive possible.

The 2-piece Polara Ultimate Straight golf ball regularly retails for $39.95 per dozen but can be purchased online at www.polaragolf.com for a limited time only for just $19.95; that's a 50% savings!

Spotless Swing Golf Towel - Its 3 Towels in 1

Golfers of all skill levels are looking for an edge in their game. When a golfer strikes the ball with a clean clubface, it allows for better contact with the ball, ensuring greater backspin, and therefore, longer distance and enhanced accuracy. Until now, the only way to clean the mud and dirt off your golf clubs during your round was to water down a standard cotton golf towel or use a brush. But let's face it, brushes are awkward and messy and a watered down towel dries out during your round rendering it useless.

Well, now there's an alternative! A portion of the inside of the Premium Multi-Use Spotless Swing Golf Towel is made of a uniquely designed MicroBrush™ fabric that easily cleans the grooves of the club-face where dirt hides from ordinary towels. The fabric is coarse enough to clean deeply into the grooves yet soft enough to not damage the golf club finish, and absolutely NO WATER is needed! The ultra-high quality microfiber fabric that makes up main body of the Spotless Swing absorbs over 600% of its weight in dirt, mud and water.

For more information on the Spotless Swing Golf Towel, call 1-800-738-7293 or visit their website at www.SpotlessSwing.com

USGA Announces Special Holiday Offer For 2011 U.S. Open Tickets Far Hills, N.J. (Nov. 17) - Holiday shoppers looking for the perfect gift for the golfer on their list still have an opportunity to purchase tickets for the 2011 U.S. Open Championship, to be played June 13-19 at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Md.

A free commemorative hat clip/ball marker set from the United States Golf Association will be mailed to all 2011 U.S. Open ticket buyers who take advantage of this special offer and purchase before Jan. 3, 2011. Grounds tickets start at $50 daily and are $450 weekly, while Trophy Club tickets start at $75 daily and are $725 for the week.

Tickets will be mailed in early May. However, the hat clip/ball marker set will be mailed in time to wrap for the holidays for your favorite golfer if ordered before Dec. 18.

New for 2011 is the 1895 Club, an individual hospitality ticket option starting at $250. Located alongside Congressional's fifth fairway, the 1895 Club will feature an upgraded dining menu with breakfast, a buffet lunch with hot entrees, afternoon snacks and full bar service throughout the day, all included in the price of the ticket.
