Features • INCONEL Inconel is a nickel based material that is used by the Williams F1 team of engineers in their production of exhaust parts for the FW32 race car. Inconel is effective because of its ability to withstand extreme temperatures while maintaining its structural integrity. The key benefit that steams from this material is the fact it has a higher tensile strength than stainless steel, but due to its nickel base provides for a softer feel. This material is typically used in a machine or forging application which works well for golf equipment. All of these key attributes combined provide the reasoning for Williams Sports use of Inconel as its baseline material for the entire Qualifier series of irons. • DENSIMET Densimet is a unique metal that is new to the golf industry and a by product of the Williams F1 technology.

The 2007-2012 Outlook For Golf Equipment In Japan $609 This study covers the latent demand outlook for golf equipment across the prefectures and cities of Japan. Latent demand (in millions of U.S. dollars), or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) estimates are given across some 1,000 cities in Japan. For each city in question, the percent share the city is of its prefecture and of Japan is reported. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a city vis-`-vis others. This statistical approach can prove very useful to distribution and/or sales force strategies. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each prefecture and city, latent demand estimates are created for golf equipment. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved. |

The Golf Mojo $59.95 "The Golf Mojo Over the last few decades, training has evolved from general training to sports-specific and finally to motion-specific isolation of the particular muscles that come into play during your specific motion. Scientific testing has proven overwhelmingly that lower arm strength and conditioning is too often neglected. Thus, it is apparent that proper strength and conditioning is extremely important in all sports today. This known fact encourages individuals to train correctly and effectively if they wish to be competitive and productive while holding on to their respective sports equipment during a swing motion. The most important aspect of performing any exercise is being able to isolate the area of focus. The MOJO golf swing trainer incorporates targeted isolation weight resistance of the forearms and its biomechanical design strengthens and conditions the wrist and hands as well. The isolation principle of sports and motion-specific training is the true difference between good efforts and great results. The Golf Mojo graduated weight system of three different weights and recommended incremental grip positioning is not only versatile, but very effective. It promotes proper overloading and encourages necessary underloading of the muscle fibers during motion-specific drills. The heavier weighted MOJO combined with slower speed reps establish strength and endurance through the recruitment of slow twitch muscle fibers while the lighter weighted MOJO coupled with faster speed reps tap into the fast twitch muscle fibers for speed and quickness. Features MOJO POWER CYLINDER FACTOR: The cylindrical weight's distribution of mass and strategic positioning located very close to the user’s hands establishes correct muscle memory for peak acceleration and explosive power where it matters - through impact. MOJO® weight increments of 3.5, 5.5 and 7.5 pounds are designed to help you progress in powerizing yourself safely and correctly, allowing individuals of all strength levels to benefit from MOJO® swing dynamics technology. The weighted cylinder also encourages an even more dynamic approach to increasing swing power via its power band attachment mechanism strategically positioned on the face of the cylinder. Most everyone is much stronger with one arm over the other, so being able to perform one-arm swinging drills with either just the lead or impact arm or with just the trailing arm is so crucial with establishing a double-barrel approach to generating power via these two levers of force-velocity. MOJO DESIGNED HANDLE: The golf grip handle's shorter length and required larger grip diame |

Tiger Woods=? Golf Economy
Tiger Woods’ scandal and his retreat might have impact on America's annual $75 billion golf economy.
Neal Pilson, former president of CBS Sports and now a sports broadcast consultant, says that Tiger's indefinite leave from competition is affecting TV advertising purchases for 2010 PGA Tour events. Because of the soft economy, advertising inventory for the first half of 2010 wasn't sold out before the Woods scandal erupted on Thanksgiving. Now that Tiger has decided to sit out indefinitely, companies are likely to "wait and see what happens" before making commitments, according to Pilson. "But once Tiger returns, normal golf sponsors will step up."
Pilson also says that in 2010 networks could end up making financial adjustments to advertisers who purchased spots for events where Woods was expected to play. "We went through the same thing last year with Tiger's knee surgery," says Pilson. "If ratings come in well below what was expected, adjustments might happen."
But Woods's scandal isn't all doom and gloom for TV, even at Golf Channel. The cable network, which just completed the third year of a 15-year deal with the PGA Tour, claims to have been unaffected by Woods's scandal. "We have not seen any impact on advertising sales," says Page Thompson, president of the network. "In fact, we're starting to see improvement on ad sales. We've been signing at a good pace for 2010."
Thompson acknowledged that Woods could have a modest negative impact in 2010 depending on how long he stays out of action. "We broadcast 47 Tour events, and Tiger plays in about one third of them," says Thompson. "But long-term, we don't anticipate any impact."
While we're sure to see short-term effects for broadcasters, any attempt to measure the long-term impact of the scandal is pure speculation, according to Pilson. The Tour's current TV contract doesn't expire until the end of 2011, and negotiations for the new contract "would be deferred until we know what Woods's plans will be."
Tournament organizers are also sure to feel the effect at the gate. When Woods missed half of the 2008 season and the beginning of the 2009 season while recovering from knee surgery, crowds were noticeably smaller at PGA Tour stops that had previously featured Woods. For instance, attendance at the 2009 Buick Invitational, played at Torrey Pines in February without Woods, was down 30 percent compared to 2008, according to Tom Wilson, the tournament director.
But will Woods's absence cast an economic pall over the entire golf industry? Will 26-handicappers stop taking lessons and going on golf vacations? Will country clubs curtail operations and have layoffs? After speaking with several industry leaders, it seems like the broader golf industry won't live or die with Woods. "The game is bigger than Tiger, regardless of what people might think," said Mike Adams, the director of instruction at Hamilton Farm Golf Club in Gladstone, N.J., and a Golf Magazine Top 100 Teacher.
Nobody I spoke with, including Adams, believed that Woods would be away from the game for too long. The consensus was that, barring an unforeseen circumstance, Woods should be back by the Masters in mid-April. Any industry-wide economic ramifications of Woods's hiatus, then, may well be limited to the first part of the year. And, the economy has a much larger influence on golf as a whole than Woods. "The real problem at the club and course level is the economy," Adams said. "We have courses closing all over the place, and it's kind of scary."
Despite Woods's unmatched popularity, participation rates in the game have actually been trending down since he turned pro in 1996. According to the latest figures from the National Golf Foundation, rounds played have decreased by six percent over the last decade, dropping to 489 million in 2008 from 518 million in 2000.
"Tiger doesn't affect rounds played," says Tom Stine, a co-founder of Golf Datatech, a market research firm. "The average player doesn't care if Tiger's playing. They'll play golf no matter what." To support his point, Stine explains that rounds played in the U.S. were virtually the same for the first 10 months in 2008, when Woods missed months of tournament golf due to knee problems, as they were in the first 10 months of 2009, when Woods played nearly the entire season.
Stine, whose company provides research to most equipment makers, also predicted that Tiger's absence won't have a major impact on the golf equipment industry as a whole. "People don't give up an obsession because of one person. If Derek Jeter stopped playing baseball, would kids stop signing up for Little League?"
Most industry experts interviewed for this article agreed that the economic impact will not be a long-term issue. They expected Woods to be back on Tour and winning sooner rather than later. As soon as that happens, especially at the majors, things should return to normal.
"Every sport has black eyes," Adams said. "When Tiger gets close to Nicklaus's record, everybody will be back to watching Tiger. Then, everything happening now will be a moot point."
