Golf Trips – Making Them Affordable

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

Golf trips are a good way to connect with old buddies or simply to brush up on rusty golf skills that sit sadly uncared for throughout lengthy months of winter or occasions when the enterprise of living makes the pleasure of the greens a distant memory. Golf is one of those sports activities that you simply both love or hate (unfortunately you do most of these inside every single round). Because of this, it is nice to plan golf trips that mean you can get in as much of this excellent sport in as your nerves can handle.

Q-Link Classic Black SRT-2 Q-Link Pendant

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010
Q-Link Classic Black SRT-2 Q-Link Pendant

Q-Link Classic Black SRT-2 Q-Link Pendant  Simply worn and combining ease of use and utility, the Classic Q-Link is our most affordable pendant. SRT-2 supports your general well-being and is ideal for users in less stressful, non-performance oriented environments. Arrives with a variable length cord or simply slip the Classic SRT-2 Pendant in you pocket. Easy to use, durable, lightweight, waterproof and versatile. Weight: 7g Dimensions: W:36mm X H:37mm X D:3mm  FAQ's How Does The Q-Link Work? Beneficial resonance with your biofield In 1994, the National Institutes of Health in the United States adopted a new term biofield to describe a growing body of research showing a subtle field that permeates and extends beyond the physical body. The biofield is something youve probably already noticed: a vital force that animates our bodies and powers our daily lives. When our biofield is out of balance, were out of balance. Disease, fatigue, and apathy all reflect a compromised biofield. When something improves our biofield, such as the Q-Link, it enhances our sense of well-being. Every day, our biofields are negatively impacted by flickering computer monitors, irate bosses, cell phones, emotional stress, tabloid television, and traffic jams. We are literally bombarded with frequencies that wear us down. Thats why it is essential to recharge. Q-Link products tune up your biofield through a resonant effect that harmonizes your energy and helps you to navigate smoothly through a stressful world. Think of them like tuning forks that remind your biofield of its optimal functioning state. Worldly stress causes the biofield to become more chaotic and incoherent. The Q-Link reverses this process, ensuring efficiency, harmony, and balance. What are the benefits of Q-Link? People who wear a Q-Link report having clearer thinking, increased awareness, calmness, better sleep, enhanced mental focus, stamina, vitality and more. * The Q-Link strengthens your resistance to the effects of stress * Increases energy and enhances mental performance especially under stress * Strengthens immunities to Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) emitted by cell phones, computers, and other electronic devices. For golfers, these effects help with better course management, better focus and concentration. The result is more good shots, fewer bad shots and lower golf scores. What is a Q-Link? The Q-Link Pendant is an advanced, scientifically proven technology worn around the neck that helps the human energy field function more efficiently, strengthening it's resilience and resistance to the effects of stress. (see How Q-Link Lowers Scores) What are the benefits? The Q-Link stabilizes and enhances your body's physical and mental function, especially under stress. This results in both increased performance and a strengthening of your natural immunity to the negative effects of electromagnetic fields (EMF) produced by cell phones, computers and other electronic devices that saturate our modern day living and working environments. People who wear the Q-Link report a wide range of benefits in their personal and professional lives including higher energy, the ability to think more clearly, increased awareness, calmness, better sleep, enhanced mental focus, stamina and vitality. For golfers, these benefits produce an active edge that contributes to better course management and the ability to perform - especially under competitive stress. The result is more good shots, fewer bad shots, a faster ability to return to a centered emotional state and lower golf scores. Whats new about the Q-Link? The new Q-Link has a sleek, contemporary design that is available in your choice of white or black. The one and one-half inch triangle with beveled edges has two distinct sides, each making a unique statement. It can be worn by both men and women and be worn all the time - as a signature piece, dressed up or down. The new pendant was designed by internationally acclaimed designer Neville Brody. Are there any enhancements to the technology? All next generation pendants contain the latest enhancements to the SRT programming, SRT 3, enabling the devices to more efficiently resonate life-supporting frequencies in your energy field. The result is a more effective response to stressors. Most will realize heightened energy, a quicker effect and experience a more rapid return to centered emotional states. Does Q-Link have a power source? The Q-Link contains no power source of its own. It works like a tuning fork, resonating with and strengthening the life-enhancing information already present within the human biofield. How long do I have to wear Q-Link before I notice the benefits? Everyone is different. Some notice an immediate response while it may take days or longer for others to register the effects. FDA registered stress testing equipment demonstrates the effects are instant, even if you dont realize it. For optimal results, we highly recommend that you wear your Q-Link all the time. Is there a money back guarantee? All Q-Link products carry a one-year warranty. You may also return your Q-Link product for any reason for a full refund within 90 days of purchase. It must be returned in original condition.  Testimonials "I began wearing a Q-Link pendant about three months ago. Since then I have focused with greater clarity and have performed better under pressurethe greatest benefit I have to show is my first PGA Tour victory, which I am ecstatic to say Q-Link played a big role in." Ted Purdy 2005 Byron Nelson Classic Winner When I started wearing the Q-Link in 2001 it was the best streak of playing golf I have ever had. I feel calmer, less nervous and less anxious, which is a good thing in professional golf." Mark Calcavecchia Broke 48 year PGA scoring record while wearing Q-Link "The tournament before the Senior Open, I put on the Q-Link and finished second. The next week I went out and won the Open. I definitely feel calmer since I began wearing the Q-Link. I would have to say in situations where I hit a bad shot, it didn't bother me as much. I find it easier to recover now from a bad shot. I don't know how it works or what it does, but if you ask me if I'm going to take it off, I say hell no! You don't fool with success!"
