Proposal and Question:
There have been a couple of requests, or perhaps suggestions, that The Newsletter act as a "Trading Post" to MGA Members for Golf Equipment.
If employed, it would allow MGA Members to list Golf "stuff" they want to buy/sell.
The Question: Would YOU like to see us do this? Please respond to either Mikey or Dave via "Tell me about it." Mikey and I have discussed this and agreed we would be open to managing this service...if you want it!!!
LET US KNOW
So far: (5/19)Responses range from "Good idea" to "Dumb idea." Only one member (Ron Petit) has indicated he would use it. He says he always has clubs to sell. Waiting for your feedback.

- 125,000 golf balls a year are hit into the water at the famous 17th hole of the Stadium Course at Sawgrass.
- The longest drive ever is 515 yards. The longest putt ever is a monstrous 375 feet
- Phil Mickelson, who plays left-handed, is actually right handed. He learned to play golf by mirroring his father’s golf swing, and he has used left handed golf clubs ever since.
- The chances of making two holes-in-one in a round of golf are one in 67 million.
- Tiger Woods snagged his first ace at the tender age of eight years old.

One less Excuse!
Hot Humid Air Won't Slow Your Ball Down
Worried that humidity hampers ball flight? Think that the ball has a harder time pushing its way through dense air? If so, you're all wet. Hot humid air actually is lighter than cold, dry air. And water vapor is lighter than dry air, so on a humid day the air is actually less dense, providing less resistance. That means a golf ball will fly farther on a humid day - but not enough that you'll notice a difference. Our conclusion: Don't sweat it.

 Bob wearily trudged into his house and laid down his bag of golf clubs. "How was your game, darling" asked his wife, Jane. "I was hitting the ball ok, but my eyesight's gotten so damn bad I couldn't see where the ball went.' shrugged Bob.
"Well, you're 75 years old," said Jane. "You can't expect everything to be like it was. Why don't you take my brother Jimmy along" "But he's 85 and he doesn't even play golf any more" protested Bob. "But he's got perfect eyesight," Jane pointed out. He can watch the ball for you."
So the next day Bob teed off with Jimmy looking on. He swung and the ball disappeared down the middle of the fairway. "Do you see it, do you see it" asked Bob in anticipation. "Yep!" Jimmy answered. "Well where is it" exclaimed Bob, peering off into the distance.
"I forgot," said Jimmy.
