Today I ask that the office takes a moment to recognize a true hero sitting among us in this very building we share.

It may be due to your alignment.

Our New Crash Proof Maid

Pete’s Crash Proof™ Golf Tips
Golf is a game of consistency and repetition. A normal “full swing” shot should have the same ball position for all of your clubs.

This will ensure that, at least at the start of the swing, you are consistent.
