CooLHeadS–A Cool Head Better Than None getcoolheads.com

The dog days of summer have arrived, and as much as we would like to go
out and play a round of golf, sometimes high temperatures make it just too
darn hot to enjoy. Sunburn and heat exhaustion can lead to a miserable
day on the links. CooLHeadS, a distinctive piece of headwear, will protect
you from both the sun and the extreme heat. A normal hat protects the
dome, whereas CooLHeadS shelters your head, neck, and shoulder areas.
The 100% terry cloth sun wear felt very comforting during a blistering day chasing the ball around the
course. The elastic headband makes it suitable for all head sizes. Think of it as a half towel half hood to
better understand the concept of CooLHeadS. You will not have to soak it in water. Just put it on, and let
the cooling begin. A great addition to the beach bag or at the pool, CooLHeadS can help you live summer
more pleasantly.

Sun Therapè Pro Sport–Get a Grip on Protection suntherapeprosport.com

Believe it or not, we expose our skin to more than 5,200 hours of sun in a
decade. Just about all of the hundreds of sun protection products available
do their job well, but few are made specifically for a particular group of
people. Sun Therapè Pro Sport was formulated precisely for athletes, so it
goes on smooth, not sticky or slippery. Nothing can be worse than applying
your sunscreen and then butchering your next golf shot because of the
leftover mess. Different from other products, Sun Therapè Pro Sport, a
sunscreen/moisturizer hybrid, absorbs quickly leaving no unwanted residue. So, you can quickly refocus on
the next shot at hand. With alarming increases in skin cancer these days, you need to protect yourself from
the sun. The Sun Therapè Pro Sport with SPF 35 comes in both a face and body lotion as well as a sport
spray. Take time to tell your “skin story” and play on.

CEP Compression Socks–Now You See Me, cepcompression.com
Now You Don’t

We’d like to follow up on a review we did on CEP Compression Socks
last summer. We were so impressed by the performance of the product
from a golfer’s standpoint that we almost forgot they were compression
socks. So, you knew we were delighted to try the Men’s Dynamic+ No
Show Socks. Golfer’s don’t necessarily enjoy tan lines around the ankles.
It doesn’t look good with a pair of flip flops. The CEP Compression No Show almost eliminates that. The
incredibly lightweight material provides extra-strong compression and stability. This golfer will not be seen
purchasing the pack of six golf socks at the department store ever again. Since my feet and legs have not
aged gracefully, I demand comfort and performance. I get both with the CEP Compression Sock. How
about a 200+ wear guarantee? That my friends is one sweet sock.

“Ben Hogan’s Secret Fundamental– triumphbooks.com
What He Never Told the World” by Larry Miller (Triumph Books)

Few secrets remain about the golf swing. For years people and experts have
dissected Ben Hogan’s iconic swing to determine what made it work. The
infamous photo of his one iron on the 18th hole of the final round of the
1950 U.S. Open at Merion probably graces more clubhouse walls than any
other golf photo. In Ben Hogan’s Secret Fundamental, former PGA Tour
player Larry Miller reveals the secret (it wouldn’t be much of a secret if I
broadcast it here) and offers opinions as to what made Hogan the greatest
ball striker in the history of the game. Miller adds tales about Hogan from
those who knew the somewhat secretive man the best. And Miller does
what any great Life Member of the PGA of America does. He shares useful
tips and drills to help golfers come much closer to playing the game the
way Hogan did.
