 Hello Golfers,
I hope everyone survived the heat last week! Our next door neighbours here at Golf Traders HQ recorded temperatures of of over 50ºC, in their workplace, we fared a little better but we still sizzled in that intense heat.
If you are planning on playing in hot conditions make sure to cover up and take plenty of water with you, 4-5 hours out in the sun can take its toll on the body.

 On Yer Bike
Did you see THAT interview on television the other night? Armstrong admitting that all of his 7 Tour de France wins were aided by way of performance enhancing drugs.
The general feeling amongst the people when this subject comes up in conversation is one of true sadness. An unbelievably sad story of how the people of the world hero worshipped him, believed his story and held him in such high esteem, feel let down, betrayed and in many cases angry.
There is no doubt Lance Armstrong has done outstanding charity work and has more than likely put more bums on saddles than any other person to have worn ridiculously tight shorts and a yellow vest.
Put all that aside for a moment and you are still left with a man who by his own admission wanted everything HIS WAY and was ruthless in the way he achieved it.
I for one am proud to say that golf is one of the few sports where a competitor can mark their own score card, and cheating is frowned upon at any level.
PGA tour players often penalise themselves for a breach of the rules and as a result often harm their chances of victory for the greater good of the game and their reputation(s).

 What's in the bag
Name: Dustin Johnson
Age: 29 Career PGA Tour wins: 6 Clubs: Taylor Made
Driver: Taylor Made R1 - Fujikura Motore Fuls 2.0 X Flex
Irons: TaylorMade R11S 15.5 degrees - Aldila RIP X flex Putter: Titleist Scotty Cameron Newport prototype
One of the most talented, exciting and longest players in the game consolidated this fact by winning a FedExCup event in 2011 (The Barclays), finishing No. 5 on the PGA Tour Money List, and earning a spot on the 2011 US Presidents' Cup team.
Arguably the most athletic professional golfer currently in world golf, Dustin's six career PGA victories are the most of any PGA Tour player under 30, and he's currently on track to qualify for his second U.S. Ryder Cup team.
Dustin Johnson could dunk and palm a basketball as a seventh grader.

 Golf with a difference:
Getting a bit bored with your local course? Looking to try something different? How about Indoor Golf? Inner City Golf is Sydney's only indoor golf centre. Play some of the world's most famous courses on their golf simulators, including Pebble Beach. But guess what, it gets better, no walking between shots, not slow golfers in the group in front, and you can drink between shots (They have a fully licensed bar for all your beverage needs).If you work near St Leonard’s or are planning a trip to Sydney, give Inner City Golf a try!

 PRO TIP:Hitting Straight
The key to hitting perfectly straight golf shots is a square path and square club face angle. That's it. That's all you need to hit the ball perfectly straight every single shot.
Of course, that is easier said than done, but it doesn't change the fact that those are the requirements and nothing else. If the club head is travelling straight down the target line with the club face perfectly square to the target line, the golf ball will fly dead straight.
When out on the course try to remember one or two swing thoughts at most, this will concentrate your brain on one area and free you up to swing without hesitation.
