  2. Guru explains how to hole bunker shots - Part 1 | Aslan Golf

    Scenario

    We have all done it, thought we've hit the perfect shot only to find out its landed in the bunker. Well I'm going to try and help you using this quick and simple tutorial.

    1. The Lie

    The lie of the ball in the bunker is usually the first tell tale sign of what type of shot you wish to play. The better the lie the more spin you can impart on the ball and this then creates control. However lets face facts how many times do we get these in a bunker?

    Well the answer is not many. So as the lie becomes worse, so does the amount of control you have of the golf ball during the bunker shot.

    You can get many different scenarios within the bunker, from plugged to sidehill lies. Therefore its important to adopt specific shots to suit as one bunker shot will not suit them all. However for this situation we are going to start with the basic bunker shot.

    2. Club Selection

  3. Aslan Golf Introduces the Sun Mountain COMBO Cart 2015 | Aslan Golf

    Since 1999 Sun Mountain have been at the forefront of the golf push cart revolution with the creation of the Speed Cart. The Speed Cart was the first push cart on the market that folded down with no disassembly required and was lightweight and small enough to be transported to and from the course with ease.

    In 2009, Sun Mountain again reinvented the push cart market with the first four-wheeled golf push cart, the Micro Cart. Micro Cart folded 25% smaller and weighed 20% less while still carrying golf bags from the smallest stand bags to the largest cart bags.

    For 2015, Sun Mountain is once again introducing a revolutionary push cart with the golf bag and cart in one, the Combo Cart. Combo will offer the club and accessory space of a cart bag and the ease and ergonomic benefits of an attatched push cart. The Combo Cart will weigh 18 lbs. and fold down to about the same size as the Sun Mountain C-130 cart bag.

  9. Nike Introduces The New Vapor Flex Driver for 2015 | Aslan Golf

    Distance for every golf swing - that’s what Nike Golf engineers set out to deliver with the brand's new Vapor drivers: the Vapor Pro, Vapor Speed and now the Vapor Flex.

    The Vapor Flex, Nike’s pinnacle driver, features the same three key technologies found in the Vapor Pro and Vapor Speed drivers:

    Nike’s FlyBeams, which stiffen the cavity back of the club.

    A re-engineered Compression Channel that accentuates the spring-like effect across the face to return energy to the golf ball.

    FlexLoft 2, which allows the golf athlete the functionality of five lofts and three face angles within 15 different settings.

    All of these technologies were developed to drive more energy to the golf ball for more distance, no matter the swing.

    But Nike didn’t stop there with the Vapor Flex driver. While the Vapor Pro and Vapor Speed drivers each provide specific launch and spin characteristics, Nike Golf engineers believe
