Mission Impossible

GGOOOODDTT MMEESS

“If business was without problems then everybodywould be in business”. This fact of business life iswhat keeps the businessman going forward in theface of innumerable problems which confront himday after day. Being successful in business reallyinvolves the ability to solve problems better thanthe next guy. And when we hit a point where thereare seemingly no problems, then that in itself is aproblem which is resolved by seeking out newproblems.

We are never perfect nor are we meant to be. Theday when there are no problems left to solve is theday when we are dead…and then our problems aretransferred to others.

Our business, like others, involves problem solvingon many levels. In the product-sales area, DuroDyne tries to satisfy the needs of various industrygroups involved in product usage and sales.

THE ENGINEER is responsible for system designand performance. He rightfully demands the bestavailable components without undue regard forprice.

THE CONTRACTOR although interested in jobperformance nevertheless looks to meet engineers’specifications at lowest installed cost.

THE DISTRIBUTOR aims at supplying the contractorwith the best product at the lowest cost and at areasonable profit.

The manufacturer therefore faces the multipleprograms entailed in providing the best product atthe lowest cost and making it available for promptdelivery by leading wholesalers throughout thecountry who will actively promote its use and keepready stocks to supply their customers as needed.This is quite an order for any manufacturer to meet.

Solving the problem of meeting diverse and oftenseemingly conflicting needs all comes under the

heading of “marketing”. This is the managementorientation of Duro Dyne. We cannot be all thingsto all people but we always try to satisfy most of thepeople, most of the time.

Sounds like “Mission Impossible”? Well, we don’tthink so and as a result, our goal is to satisfy all ofthe people all of the time…and we are gettingbetter each year.

Some Golf Grip Tips ToImprove Your Gameby Tom GhormleyYou may well be shocked or at least taken abackat how many players there are who work typicallyon their swing action but hardly ever (if ever)work on their golf grip.

In this instance, I mean the golf gripof their hands, not the rubber gripon the shaft. When you think aboutit though, the full swing actionbegins with the golf grip, which willneed to boost its relevance in gettingit correct.

If your golf grip does not work, whyshould anything that comes afterwork? There is an unbiased grip for anygolf enthusiast. That golf grip is when your armhangs straight down from the shoulder socketand the direction of your target side hand.

It can make no distinction whether you use anoverlapping, interlocking, or ten-finger grip. WhatIS crucial is the slope the club is placed in yourhand. To uncover your neutral grip, to begin withtake your address spot, but without having a golfclub, and make it possible for both arms to hangdownward from the shoulders. Remain relaxed;there ought to be no stiffness in your arms orhands.

The majority of golfers find that their target sidearm hangs anywhere in between the midsectionof the target side thigh to the inside of the thigh,based on the width of foot position and or thewidth of the upper body.

As you start looking down at your target sidehand pay notice to the angle it hangs. A numberof you will view two knuckles of the hand, manycan see three, and a few could even see four. Itisn't going to matter how many you see. No mat-ter what the number, this is your body's way ofinforming you its natural predisposition and thatis the neutral angle for your golf grip.

Whenever you place your target side hand on thegolf club it ought to be at the identical angle youjust saw. The golf club then extends diagonallyfrom in between the first and second joint of theindex finger to the bottom part of the pinkiefinger. Shut the fingers and then shut the handwith the heel pad on top of the shaft with thethumb to the rear of the shaft. This provides forcefrom the heel pad downward and the last threefingers apply pressure upwards.

Then take the lifeline of the trailing hand, situat-ed between the thumb and heel pads, and posi-tion it on the thumb of the target side hand. The

lifeline towards the thumb exerts the pressure.The right forefinger should be segregated, in a"triggering position", yet with no pressure. It iscrucial to fully grasp that the forefinger and tar-get side thumb both be on the similar side andangle of the shaft for the perfect support.

The trailing thumb ought to be on the target sideof the shaft. You under no circumstances wantthe thumbs to apply any pressure. Last but notleast, as a way for the hands to perform together,they need to be parallel to each other.This mightall appear tricky, but try it and see for yourself ifdiscovering the proper grip angle doesn'tenhance your shots.
