Today on golf destination we learn about some more new products from this year’s Merchandise Show we meet a former Ridder cup player who talks about his favorite swing Aid we meet a legendary golf instructor plus will take you to a vacation destination all of that and more next
Hello and welcome to golf destination I’m Meredith Gorman from the sociable Studios we have a great show ahead for you when we were at the PGA Merchandise Show we met with a golf company that may be best described as a lifestyle company founder Jason Moore tells us more the
Inspiration for True is back in 2010 I was actually catting for my brother on the PGA tour uh my brother’s Ryan Moore he’s thinks outside the box pretty alternative guy he was trying to find Footwear that uh actually fit him well he’s developing some foot pain and early
On in his career and he thought you know what I’ve been working out in these natural minimalist Footwear and it’s been helping me maybe we can make a golf shoe like that and we did and accidentally started a company true differentiates this product from the ground up I think our shoes are designed
And built different uh we definitely offer a more natural platform that we believe to be more ergonomic and work more functionally with your body for the golf swing and we also make shoes that are ready for anything that your day throws at you we know the golfers likely
To go on a hike or a walk or travel our shoes are built for that but also perform at the highest level is evidenced by the fact that we have a dozen PGA Tour players that lace up our shoe nearly every week true no longer just makes shoes uh we started what we
Say from the ground up uh we felt like we put our 10,000 hours in have really mastered our craft and Footwear and why not throw a new project in the works uh we started and launched apparel uh we didn’t want to start from our zero so we brought in experts with 20 years
Experience and we’ve tailored a line around the idea of the PJ tour players lifestyle uh it should be taught performing highquality goods made sustainably and ethically uh that are versatile you should be able to look good you know at breakfast and during your round and after your round two and
Not have to skip a beat we we are not just thinking about those few special hours we get as golfers each week hopefully to actually get out on the course but we want you to live in our gear 247 you know if you’re packing your next duffel bag for your golf trip and
There’s nothing but true gear in there I think we fulfilled our purpose well we’re founded in Seattle Washington it’s a little punk rock and alternative up there so our dead golfer is a little owed to the culture that surrounds us a little bit edgy but also
An homage to the game of golf itself we like to say Married to the Game till death do us part and uh it’s about our love for the game and our passion for it that you know uh someday we hope uh we get to play a little golf in the afterlife
Too thanks Jason Rick Smith is a golf teaching Pioneer whose popular golf lessons in the 80s and ’90s were airing before the Advent of 24-hour Golf Channel and YouTube we talked to him about the state of golf instruction today I remember going out in the PGA
Tour in the 80s and I had a camera that was that big and I had a stick that I used to use and I put it in the ground to video a shaft angle plane basically and and I would see whether it was over it or under it right and then I used
That shaft for different reasons and to influence where the club was moving Technology’s changed an amazing amount to a high level side of of the fact that the data that we’re getting from Gears over here to you know simulation to uh ball flight you know simulators and monitors it’s amazing what what has
Happened I mean to a point where now you can measure your your movement patterns right to left up and down things that we never had we could see it but you can now measure it so Tech technology has been very amazing and I think Fitness is more significant where people are
Realizing that they have to move better as they get older they move poorly their bodies go to pot we all know that and so there are preventative things you can do plus there’s ways to get more speed you see different things that are on the market to help improve that so it has
Help grow the game for sure I mean and there are better players or more good players now than there ever were the key is getting with somebody that you can really focus on you and what your Tendencies are and work away from those there’s probably the biggest negative
Would be an overabundance of YouTube videos that don’t pertain to your swing at all and so you may get smarter as a a knowledgeable person but your game goes backwards because you’re experimenting with the wrong things so I think knowing your swing is as valuable as anything
Because when you know your swing you know what you need need to work on and that’s the key and I think you have to get with somebody that can sort through all this all these numbers right and what is important what isn’t important because I’ve seen swings that are that I
Would change that when I see them at impact the impact actually looks pretty good the PO impact looks awful there’s pre impact is that look bad the point is that person even though that number looks pretty good it’s they’re not a very consistent player they’re not a good player so there’s some deception
Too what you see with numbers you can view golf destination content from the past as well as original programming on our YouTube channel at golf destination up next we’ll show you a website that is dedicated to improving your game when golf destination presented by gings of Bermuda continues golf destination is brought to

Dare to be happy welcome back to golf destination presented by goslings of Bermuda I’m your host Meredith Gorman from the sociable Studios if you want to get better at golf there’s an online destination for the latest and most effective training AIDS backed by one of Europe’s best instructors let’s learn
More we’re a a direct consumer brand uh where we have all our sales on online we sell all over the world um and we sell multiple training aid products for golfers both teaching professionals and consumers we started because we thought we knew what kind of training aids to
Make and one of the things we learned pretty quickly is that we are not the experts uh on a technical side of the golf swing so we partnered with a renowned teaching professional over in the UK Dan Frost and Dan is kind of helped us bring a lot of our ideas to
Light and bring them to bring them to life as as new products and we’re also his exclusive distributor here in the US uh selling his short golf products uh in the US you know I partner with golf trining aids.com they’re they’re the Well’s leading golf training aid
Supplier they work with industry so they have affiliate programs but they also reach a huge audience of direct to Consumer customer the great thing about that is their service is excellent they make products accessible and they really take anything that’s hot anything that’s on tour anything that’s com to Market
They’re the guys to go to that have it first so golf trining a.com the second piece is my company is sure golf sh golf is a company that’s a little smaller but it really works on creating training AIDs that are sensory based so trying to remove information add sensation and the
Perfect partnership between golf training agent.com and short golf that’s a Synergy that we work together closely so that we can bring products from the UK over to the US and make them available for the consumer we realize that golfers of all skill levels need training products whether you’re a
Scratch golfer a teaching professional or someone who’s just learning how to play and it’s a 25 handicap one of the things that happened after the pandemic is you know a lot of people who never golf before decided to take up golf um the other thing I thought was really
Interesting is we started making products now and we want to make sure that they’re uh we can use them in the house you know it’s uh Can’t Always Get outside uh to practice your your game and get better so a lot of our products most of our products you can use indoors
You know we like a training a to incorporate putting chipping swing the more obvious it can be the more valuable it can be for somebody so they can work on lots of components of the game the second piece really is the level of golfer we create field-based training
AIDs that allow good players to use them as a refinement tool and the weekend warrior to use them as an installation so they’ve got to be obvious Vivid something you can work on by yourself but also something where the messaging behind it is easy to understand we don’t
Want training dayss where you have to watch 15 videos you have to read a book to be able to use them it’s very much Plug and Play Eduardo Molinari has won multiple times on the European tour and has worked with Dan frost on his golf game a
Lot of tour players have uh have used or tried of tested sh golf products uh which all the things together you know it’s a guarantee that the product are going to work and help everyone’s game I pick sure golf because uh all the products are invented by teaching pro uh
That’s very important all the products have been tested on on Gears so they’re scientifically proven to work I love the tool field because um it helps me Heat balls feeling a lot of width on the way back and a lot of connection on the way through and uh
That’s a great feeling to have when you’re playing golf uh the tour field helps me a lot making a better move uh because when I wear it when I’m hitting balls with it it just instill this feel of being very wide on the way back but at the same
Time retaining the connection between the arms and the body and then from there I can just make a big body turn and be able to hit the balls and hit like these little half shots that are great for for my practice the tour field helped me in Old
Skill areas in my golf swing uh because it’s a very versatile uh training aid uh first of all it’s very important that I’m able to hit balls with it because then it’s it’s a real swing and then secondly um I just like to feel when I’m
Playing golf I just like to feel a lot of width a lot of connection on the way down a lot of body driven movement and uh this tour field really has me get better at all those elements well I like Dan Frost products because he’s very methodical he’s very
Detailed in what he does uh I know he’s uh you know he’s been testing all these products for many many years and I haven’t seen a product that you know doesn’t work doesn’t help your game so it’s it’s a great person to be associated with and and someone that I’m
Really looking forward to work with in the next few years I trust the tour field because of all the training AGS that I tried is definitely the one that gets me into my Fields much quicker much better um I like to hit balls with it uh not many
Training AIDS you can actually hit real shots with them and and I can use this with my shorter irons longer irons I can go pretty much through the bag and it’s just a great way to practice and get into my Fields rather than you know just think about numbers or positions and
Then not really being able to read the B you can view golf destination content from the past as well as original programming on our YouTube channel at golf destination up next we visit a golf destination in a summer paradise and we show you a simple idea that helps get you ready for your
Game club benchmarking your partner on the path to data driven leadership welcome back to golf d destination I’m your host Meredith Gorman from the sociable Studios if you are looking for a golf trip on Cape Cod the Ocean Edge Resort in Brewster Massachusetts is a fantastic golf destination the golf course here at
Ocean Edge is a fantastic Nicholas design golf course it’s very playable for our members that play every day and interesting for our Resort guests who have never been here before uh we’ve got an excellent facility 18 holes Championship golf uh we’ve got over five sets of te’s with three included combo
Sets so there’s a yardage for every player out there every ability out there to come and enjoy our Golf Course here on the cape we are the only Nicholas design golf course on the cape as well uh which puts us in an exclusive class on our Golf Course here uh we’ve
Got some interesting characteristics we’ve got some undulation and some elevation changes which you don’t see a lot on the cape some tea boxes that go down as well as up uh dips in valleys our Fairways are generous our greens are a little bit tricky sometimes that we’ve got some uh
Ulating greens which makes putting a fun task when you’re out there so as our members and guests play our golf course it’s not just a a grip it and rip it type of golf course you’ve got to put some imagination and some thinking into how you want to play that golf course
You know and the best is always from the green back think about where you want that second shot to land where you want to play into that green so as you’re playing your driver we have a a few shorter par fours you don’t necessarily want to just take that driver hit as far
As you can you get a little too close to the green and then you can’t hit a Chip Shot uh close to make your birdie so some of those you may have to look at playing you know more of a layup shot off the t uh and then playing that full
Wedge in so that you can hit it close have that tap in birdie and move on to the next several of our par fivs for the longer hitters they can hit in two uh it does take two good pokes to get there definitely from the back tease is is
Challenging from the Championship te’s but our members generally playing from the white te’s they have that advantage to hit driver and then weigh that risk reward do I go for it do I lay up how how do I have to do that their strategy definitely plays into how they enjoy the
Golf course and what they look for with our sets of te’s here we’ve got the option to have eight different yardages anywhere from our forward te’s playing 4,800 yards back to our Championship black tees that play just over 7,200 so we’ve got that availability for every skill level to play the yardage that
They prefer so that they can enjoy the game on our golf carts we’ve got Vis GPS which help you get around the golf course showing you exactly what the Contours of each hole are so you’ve got that ability to plan out your round so you can think your way around this golf
Course but it is right out in front of you you know there’s no hidden tricks you can see what you’re looking at to play your way around this golf course in whichever fashion that you want people’s reaction when they finish their round and come into the golf shop they always
Talk about the condition you know the condition here is great we’ve got a a fantastically manicured golf course our maintenance does a fantastic job of keeping it in shape year round as our guests come off they continually say how they enjoyed it it’s not like any other course that they’ve played and that’s
What keeps them coming back the PGA Merchandise Show has products both large and small and sometimes the simplest ideas make the biggest difference that’s what we learned when we discovered the golf rope tucked away on the show floor the golf rope is a product I created as a PGA teaching and coaching professional
To help me along my mission of walking 18 holes when I’m 100 years old and to encourage others to do the same people do not stretch enough especially golfers and it’s because of a lack of information and a lack of KN how how to do it and the golf rope is a perfect
Product to help those golfers stretch a little bit more often as a a golf Fitness specialist I actually did a research study that looked at the benefits of a 5 minute stretch before and after we found that golfers who implemented a 5 minute stretch have a 5%
Increase in distance and a 10% increase in accuracy another cool feature is the exercises are so simple but we want you to know how to do them properly so we actually have built in a QR code on each one of our ropes that leads to our
Website so that you can do the exercises properly anyone can do them it’s extremely easy and it’s a a very intuitive product you can view golf destination content from the past as well as original programming on our YouTube channel at golf destination next we learn about a golf
Accessory that is not for the serious golfer but we’ll make them look good anyways when golf destination presented by goslings of Bermuda continues golf destination is brought to you in part by goslings of Bermuda dare to be happy welcome back to golf destination the Cloud golf company is a golf
Accessory line that wants you to have fun and for you to look good when you golf this is the Cloud golf company’s debut product and we are going to be making a lot more products that are not out there yet for the plus one golfer so
We our first product is the golf stroke counter bracelet it comes in four sizes and um it is really for fun it is really for fun golfers only it’s not for Ser serious golfers it’s the golf Vives who are having cocktails or maybe um they’re just hanging out with their friends
Their friend loses the ball and uh they need to also remember their score and there are 10 beats to each bracelet because after 10 years technically really should pick up the ball so this is how the golf stroke counter bracelet works when you’re ready to play
You re uh you reset the golf bracelet and this is your t-shot and now you hope you’re on The Fairway but you might be in the sand and if you’re in the sand you know these beads might add up maybe they don’t for you and now we’re on the
Green hopefully and this is also okay this is pretty good I just got an eight and I restart now and I write down my score or if I don’t care to keep score I just know that it’s 10 and it’s time to pick it up you can find us on
