| Excellent and compact. Good quality. I lost one and searched all over for just this one. |
Nice, but one showed up broken

| Reviewer: Joseph P. Jenkins, philadelphia, PA |
| Great to have, very compact. Ordered two... both retriever parts of the unit slipped out of the cardboard they were in (inside the amazon box)... and the orange section was snapped off on one. Amazon or whoever needs to reinforce the top part of the box so this does not happen. |

| Review Date: December 11, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Kiyoaki Komoda, EAST WINDSOR, NJ, US |
Pro: Its build very solid and handle well.
Con: Why the hook at end of handle? It has no functionality. |
Retrieves; does not always hold ball!
|
| Review Date: January 17, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Daniel A. Hodgson, |
Pros: It is compact; and it does telescope smoothly.
Cons: Placing the orange circle over the ball and pressing down to "catch" it does not work as intended. To "capture" the ball, I must be able to quickly turn the retriever over and keep the ball resting in the circle (like an egg in an egg cup) as I draw it back from the bush or water. Frustrating! |
Useless Junk
|
| Review Date: January 15, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Neal J. Conrad, |
| This thing arrived defective. One of the sections slides completely out when you extend it rendering the retriever worthless. It won't tighten back in. I'm returning this junk to Amazon and I will never order another product from Wilson. Thanks for wasting my time when I drive to the UPS pick-up center. |

Aserta IVM MalletOrder an Aserta IVM Mallet Putter now, and Shipping is Free!!!(Free shipping applies to Continental US Orders Only) Included with every Aserta Putter is a logo putter cover and a Putting Tips DVD by Andy Thuney. The Aserta IVM Model TRM-1335 Mallet Putter is the first mallet putter in a series of new designs featuring innovative new designs from Aserta that is turning putting upside down. Aserta's unique and patented Inverted Mass Technology (IVM) moves the center of gravity up above the equator of the ball to create true and immediate roll on impact. Additional features include a patented breakthrough sole design that dramatically reduces surface area and virtually eliminates drag or scuffing during the stroke. A unique sole "tab" enables a consistently accurate set-up of the clubface, square to the targeted direction. The 340-gram head weight provides incredible feel and feedback on every putt. The TRM-1335 has a smooth top-line with bright alignment aids that frame the ball, and the trademarked Aserta "pointer" prominently marks the center of the face, making alignment a snap. The TRM-1335 Mallet is a hosel-less design that features a graceful double bend shaft that helps to perfectly position the hands in relation to the club face. With a True Temper brand shaft and a Winn grip. Aserta IVM Technology has proved superior to all other putters in testing conducted with the internationally acclaimed Swing Dynamics Putting Track Monitor. The Swing Dynamics Monitor captures each aspect of the putt using high-speed photography to measure: Impact Ball Speed, Backspin, Skid Distance, Forward-Spin and True Roll. Immediate True Roll A traditional putter with its low center of gravity adds backspin to every putt causing the ball to hop and skid before it starts rolling. If a ball is hopping or skidding, it's going to go off line, not where you aim! The IVM inverted mass putter raises the center of gravity into the perfect position and automatically imparts topspin instead of backspin so the ball starts rolling accurately toward its target the instant it leaves the clubface. The truest possible roll! Backspin Versus Forward Spin With the best performing leading putters, the ball left the club face with up to 60 Rotations Per Minute of Backspin. Whereas, the Aserta Putter sent the ball off with greater than 100 Rotations Per Minute of Forward Roll. The old adage, "Never up, Never in" is as true as ever! With the Aserta IVM Putter, you'll find your putts consistently closer to the hole because the ball does not lose its forward energy by having to convert "backspin" into "fore-spin". IVM technology immediately produces topspin at impact. It is this topspin that will consistently keep your putt on target and provide the greatest amount of distance control. If you have any questions about this product or would like to order by phone, please call us Toll Free at 888-733-8383. We look forward to hearing from you!

The sport of golf in India has a long history, dating back from 1829, when the Royal Calcutta Golf Club was founded in the city of Kolkata by the British. This golf course is said to be the oldest golf course in the world outside of Britain. In recent years, there has been a development of world class golf courses in India and many tourists flock to the country to play in these courses. Indian golf courses are broadly divided into four types: designer golf courses, golf courses in hill stations, golf courses located next to historic monuments and golf courses in luxury hotels (open to their guests).

If only we all had the perfect golf swing, wouldn't that be nice? Too bad we don't - but hey, that is why I am here right? I have all kinds of great tips that you can use to make your golf swing better than you ever dreamed possible. You would be surprised to learn how many people don't really know what the proper golf swing is all about. Keep reading and test your knowledge!
First comes the grip, even if you have been playing for years there is a chance that you are not holding the golf club in the best fashion. People can pull off swings with things all out of whack but if you want to be good, I mean really good, you have to learn what makes a grip a good grip.

Extreme Green Legacy ModelExtreme Greens Legacy Model If you are looking to practice those 12 foot putts, then the Legacy is for you. Like the Extreme Green line, the Executive models are designed with the same technology to give all the adjustability in slope change. Unlike the other large models, the components are smaller and lighter, making the Executive greens easy to move and set up anywhere. Just minutes to set up and weighing only 80 lbs, the Legacy will give you years of fun at home, in the office or anywhere you can imagine a practice green can go. Features • 3' x 12' Extreme bed support • 24 Segments • 2 cups with flags • Turf How it works The Extreme Green is made up of patented modular segments that are adjustable by sliding the side support wedges in or out to change the slope. The green can be set up on any level surface and are designed and constructed for years of maintenance free use. The Extreme Green is assembled by interlocking individual segments together. To create the desired length of your green just link the right amount of segments together. A 20 foot green will need 36 segments each segment being 6.6 inches wide. If one hole on either side is desired then two segments with holes are needed. Place the holed segments in the 5th segment on each end. When all the segments are in place then the turf can be rolled out on top. First place the cups into the holes then roll the turf over the bed. Then mark the top of the cups at three points with a black felt pen which will leave an imprint on the back of the turf. Last, place the cup on the imprint on the back of the turf and cut around the cut with a razor knife to finish.

Product Description |
| Looking to improve your course management skills? Turn to the uPro golf GPS system, which employs state-of-the-art GPS, aerial, and satellite technology to accurately render the details of thousands of golf courses. The uPro starts by providing the avid golfer with aerial and satellite photographs of the golf course, so you can see what the hole looks like before you play it. At the same time, the unit's built-in GPS system clearly locates the golf course hazards and flagstick, so you know what you're up against at any moment. With each glance at the 2.2-inch, high-resolution color screen, you can see a different view of the fairway, check out the upcoming sand traps and water hazards, or receive a distance marker that helps you select the correct club length. Even more impressive, the uPro's SmartView technology anticipates the hazards that you'll face on your next shot, so you can plan accordingly based on the strengths of your game. Don't want to carry water on your second shot? The SmartView technology's dynamically generated "viewports" will tell you which area of the fairway or rough will provide a water-free path. 
The uPro offers aerial and satellite photographs of thousands of golf courses. | 
The easy-to-comprehend user-interface is crisp and intuitive. | The uPro is remarkably easy to carry, with a sleek and unobtrusive design that fits in a pocket or belt holder without interfering with your natural golf swing. In addition, the unit has the quickest startup time of any golf GPS system, with a super-fast GPS locking system. And thanks to the high GPS sensitivity, the uPro remains locked even under the most extreme conditions. The uPro offers two basic modes for golf course downloads. In Basic mode, the uPro shows the distance to the front and back of all hazards and differentiates the type of hazards. Each hazard is automatically displayed in sequential order based on the current user position, and then is updated as the user moves throughout the hole. Basic mode also provides a green view, with large, easy-to-read numbers that depict the distance to the front, center, and back of the green. In Pro mode, meanwhile, the device offers a video flyover that lets the user see the layout of the hole from an aerial perspective. From the center of the green, users can see the 100-, 150-, and 200-yard markers. The Pro mode also offers scale-accurate measurements that are used to measure to and from any point on the golf course, even from the outskirts of the rough. The uPro is compatible with Windows XP, Vista, and Mac OS X v10.4 or later (Windows 2000 is the oldest version of Windows that is compatible with the uPro). However, note that the uPro does not require any additional software to connect with the uPro servers. Instead, users can easily download golf courses at uPro's web site. Once you're online, the web site gives the user a list of all golf courses in the U.S.--in your choice of Basic or Pro mode--on a click-and-buy basis. The unit's GPS technology also automatically determines which courses are nearby. And as an add-on software download, the device can accept voice commands to make menu navigation virtually hands-free. The uPro comes with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, a wall adapter, a USB cable, and a single free Pro mode download of any golf course. The device comes with a six-month warranty. |
