Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 419 - Orange Whip Trainer - Invention, Innovation, Staying Power

It was 2008 when an odd looking new idea debuted at the PGA Merchandise Show. With an orange ball mounted on the end of an elaborate fishing rod, the Orange Whip Trainer was born and it's been rolling along ever since, with over 800,000 units sold.

We talk with the inventor and CEO, Jim Hackenberg and learn about the idea, the early days, and what it's been like to see nearly 2 decades of growth in the golf training aid space.

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 418 - Getting Into The Zone Every Time you Play. This week we're exploring the mysterious "zone" concept, that place you go when everything is clicking and you're playing your very best. How do we get there? How can we STAY there? And why does it seem to happen so rarely?

Our special guests are Bo Watson and Shannon Shuskey, authors of In The Zone Secrets: How To Get In The Zone At The Flip Of A Switch

Golf Is 90% Mental, 10% Physical. The mental game in golf can be a relentless adversary, robbing you of the joy and satisfaction that should come with showcasing your true abilities on the course. Consider the unnecessary strokes that accumulate due to a momentary lapse in concentration. The missed opportunities, the promising rounds derailed by a sudden loss of confidence.

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 417 - Charlie Golf Company - The Toddler Inspired Overnight Success Story

It's not every day you see an idea come to life with such stunning success, overwhelmingly positive feedback, and an entire family pitching in to help make it all work - but that's precisely the story unfolding in northern Iowa where Tyler Johnson launched "Charlie Golf Company," the nation's leading (only?) maker of golf bags for toddlers and young children.

If you're up for a cool story of living a dream and embracing the challenges, this conversation will make your day.
