Actually, the only time I ever took out a one-iron was to kill a tarantula.  And it took a seven to do that.  ~Jim Murray

From the Editor: 

2012 has arrived. Positive thoughts and new plans should be our focus for the New Year. 
Golf in 2012 will continue to grow as a global game as more and more International attention has been given to golf courses outside the USA and most notably the explosion of the Golf Industry in China which has and continues to be the economic powerhouse in golf shafts, club and shoe manufacturing. The amount of golfers worldwide is now in the 50-60 million range and continues to grow with golfers in China leading the growth pack. 2012 will see more and more world class golfers entering the global pro golf scene at every professional tournament. It appears Tiger Woods may be  back on track to possibly compete for winning another major in 2012 .  Griffin Golf looks forward to helping Golfers improve their game in 2012 through our lesssons. In  December of 2011  "JB" Griffin,  Founder of Griffin Golf  earned his Teachers Certification through the Naational Registry of Professional Golf Instructors  by successfully completing the courses and lesson practice sessions necessary to earn certification.  One of the greatest benefits of Golf for any Golfer is that Golf is a lifelong sport / form of recreation where it's just you against Old Man Par.  You are it!  No coach is going to tell you are too small , not fast enough or you lack the size. The only person who can cut you from your  pursuit of golf is you..  that's why Golf is a sport for all and has enjoyed  worldwide popularity since the modern game of Golf had its  humble beginnings in
Scotland  .   

At Griffin Golf our motto is the much used golf phrase "one shot at a time" and we wish you the best in your golf game in 2012. Please stay in touch with us with any ideas, comments, or suggestions.  My email is griffingolfpro@verizon.net

Sincerely

"JB" Griffin, Golfer 

"The pitch shot is used whenever you wish to achieve a high-arching ball flight with a soft landing and less roll. It is the least accurate stroke for the  short game ( pitch shot, chip shot and putting stroke),   and there a comparatively few times you need to use it " -  National Registry of Golf Instructors  www.nrpgi.com
