I have just returned from the PGA Merchandise Show at Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fl.  If ever you get an opportunity to go to this show, you will be like a kid in a candy store!  I attended the "Top 100 Teachers Summit" 2 days before the start of the show, and it inspired me to listen to the best minds in coaching talk about the future of the game.  Exciting times ahead!   Ashley Mayo,   Stephen Hennessey and Joel Beall all played a part in this article.  Let the mouthwatering begin!    Hi, I’m Mel Sole, Director of Instruction at the Mel Sole Golf School, headquartered at Pawleys Plantation Golf and Country Club in Pawleys Island, SC.  Check out these new and interesting items.

The Putting Stroke

If the genius of a training aid lies in its effectiveness and its simplicity, the Putting Stroke ($30) deserves a gold medal. All I had to do was stroke one putt with it to realize what my tendencies are. Then I fixed them. Once I strapped the Putting Stroke to the grip of my putter and set up to the ball, I was told to adjust the top rod so that it gently rested on my forearms. At that moment, I realized that my right forearm tends to set slightly higher than my left, so I made the fix and leveled them out. And when I made a stroke, the training aid helped the putter stay on the proper path (one that feels straight back and straight through but actually curves slightly on an arc). I’ve never had a wristy stroke, but if your wrists tend to be too active during your putting stroke, this training aid will help them stay quiet. The Putting Stroke is light and easy to use, and it offers instant and valuable feedback. A winner all around. TPSTeacher.com -- Ashley Mayo

MGI Golf’s Navigator Quad Cart

As golf embraces different ways to attract people to the game, golf-cart transportation is a growing field. Australian-based MGI Golf has partnered with BagBoy to bring distribution to its pushcarts into the U.S., including its remote-controlled Navigator Quad cart. You’ve probably heard of the GolfBoard, The Golf Bike and Golf Skate Caddy. Expect to see this four-wheeled golf-bag transporter more in the U.S. The cart ($2,295) moves in multiple directions and is all-terrain friendly.  It will prevent spilling your clubs going uphill, across a hill, or down severe elevations. mgigolf.com — Stephen Hennessey

Golphin For Kids Clubs

Since its inception in 2014, Golphin has been an innovator in children’s club manufacturing. What makes the equipment unique is an aerospace-alloy construction.  Which makes the club 30 percent lighter than the industry standard and helps promote sound fundamentals.  A 35 percent larger sweet spot to help kids enjoy the game.  The company introduced its line of equipment to the United States this week. “We wanted to be certain we had the best product possible before coming to America.”  Calum McPherson, who is based in Scotland, said.  “These sets reach the high standards we set.”  The company focuses on growing the game.  Golphin is setting up a foundation to introduce the sport to those who don’t have access.  “Selling clubs is great,” said McPherson, “but our foundation can bring a lifetime of golf to those we touch.” GolphinForKids.com - Joel Beall
