Well, they call today “Black Friday”.  Why battle for gifts and low prices with the crowds when you can find something for every golfer on your list at www.loftgolf.net?  We are still offering our introductory prices on all remaining 2008 LOFT Gear.  Show the golfers on your list how much they mean to you with a genuine LOFT Golf shirt, towel, divot tool and more! 

That’s it!  Golf season is over in New England.  I wept while bringing the clubs from the garage to the basement for the looooooooong winter.  They will be coming to Orlando in January for the PGA Merchandise Show.  We’ll be staying a few extra days to get in our golf fix! 

Your friends at LOFT Golf have just returned from dropping off 63 turkeys to our local food bank!  Won’t yo please take the time to do the same?  We’re not asking for you to donate 63 turkeys, but one would be great.  No one should go hungry, especially on Thanksgiving.  We all know how hard times are for everyone right now but our crew averaged spending $.50 a pound.  An 18 pound turkey will set you back only $9.00, and we promise you, you’ll feel great doing it!  Go donate turkeys!

We have spent the last two weeks in meetings to come up with the 2009 LOFT Golf line up of clothing!  As you know, we are displaying at the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando this January and are bringing our BEST stuff.  Just wait ’til you see the ‘09 of LOFT Gear!  The ‘09 LOFT Gear products are the best in the world!  Man, it’s fun to be a lofter!  We may not score well on the course but we look FINE! LOFT Golf, for the rest of us!

I would have to guess that Empire Carpet spends millions per year for their advertising company to come up with their ads.  That being the case, who was the genius that OK-ed the phrase “60% off carpet won’t last long”?  I don’t want to buy carpet that “won’t last long”.  Now, back to golf!…

The gang from L.O.F.T. Golf will be proudly displaying L.O.F.T. Gear at the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando January 29-31,2009.  L.O.F.T. Golf will be debuting their 2009 L.O.F.T. Gear collection to zillions of industry pros!  When we last checked, L.O.F.T. Golf will be the only company at the show representing the millions of lofters worldwide!  We are very excited to be attending the PGA show!  If you’re attending the show, stop by the L.O.F.T. Golf display at booth number 8796.  We can’t wait to meet you!

The entire staff of L.O.F.T. Golf wish to thank all of the brave men and women that are, or have, risked it all to protect the greatest country on the planet, the USA!  We love and respect each and every one of you!

Well, after waiting more than 11 months, my favorite holiday is almost here again…Thanksgiving!  Man, I love Thanksgiving!  It’s one of a few holidays that don’t involve gifts, stress and aggravation.  Thanksgiving is all about getting together with family and friends, over eating and watching football.  Every year we have approximately 15 guests to our home for traditional Thanksgiving cuisine.  This is a rare post that doesn’t have to do with golf.  Don’t get used to it!  All of us at L.O.F.T. Golf are thankful for all of our ‘lofters’ and wish EVERYONE a very happy and healthy Thanksgiving!

Friends and family, 15 of whom have witnessed Hocker’s strokes of luck while playing with him, are equally mystified.

“It’s incomprehensible this kind of luck could happen, but it does happen,” said El Paso pro Steve Fulton. “There are other things in life that have been just as weird and eerie that have happened. What are the odds?”

Hocker said he’s just glad his club membership comes with “hole-in-one insurance.”

That “insurance” means the club — not Hocker — has to honor the golf tradition of buying everyone in the clubhouse a drink after an ace is made.

“I think the golf course is getting mad at me for all the drinks,” Hocker said. “It’s hard to talk about, but it’s awesome to have it happen.”
