Now that you have finished the effort of getting a nice bow you should make sure and protect your investment. Your bow can give years of enjoyment, so just make sure to take care of the things you own. There are a few features that you want in bow cases and these are the things that you should look for.
Features to look for include:
Level of protection
Extra room
The weight
Fits your bow
Value
Fits your needs the best
There are two different types of cases. Hard cases and soft cases. Both cases have their good sides but will not work for every situation. What you want to find is the case that covers as many of your needs as possible. If you will be carrying you bow a lot, then the soft case will be better. If the bow will get banged around a lot or stored for a long time, then a hard case would be an appropriate choice.
The hard bow case
The hard bow case is heavy and very sturdy. You will get the most protection from this type of case.
The pros: It has an increased amount of protection for your bow. The bow inside will be very well protected from being crushed. Water damage should not be an issue. Many of the hard cases also have space built-in for your arrows. This type of case is good for storage, throwing the bow in with other hunting or camping gear, and piece of mind.
The cons: The case is normally fitted and there is not much extra room. Hard cases are heavier and can be bulkier than a soft case. Another problem is that many bows have to be taken apart to fit in the bow case. Extras like the quiver, stabilizer, and sometimes even the sight have to be taken off to fit. Some people get an over sized case to deal with this problem, but might still be a challenge if you have a larger bow.
I would recommend something like the SKB hunter bow case for a hard bow case.
The soft case
The soft bow case provides a lower level of protection, but some good options. The case is normally pretty dust proof and water-resistant.
The pros: The soft case is light weight and has additional pockets for extras and arrows. In soft cases like the Primos soft bow case that I recommend. Most people can fit their bow in with the stabilizer, quiver, and other extras still attached. It is great if you need to carry your bow a long distance or if you do not want the hassle of needing to re attach things all the time.
The cons: The case is not designed to protect against getting knocked around. That is why it is called a soft case. There will be padding inside the case and there are normally straps to secure the bow just don"t put other gear on top of the case. You will probably want an arrow container to put into one of the pockets of the case. The case is not completely waterproof, but that is completely irrelevant most of the time.
The final choice comes down to what you need and want to do. Both types are good, but one will better fit your needs. Feel free to get both cases if you want. I hope this helps you in deciding what bow case you want.

The Pros And Cons Of Hydration Packs
Staying hydrated is an important part of enjoying out door activities like cycling, walking and hiking. Carrying a water bottle from which to drink while on the move has been the traditional way of achieving this. However carrying a water bottle has some obvious disadvantages such as having to stop to get the water bottle out while on the move. Hydration backpacks are designed to ensure that nothing prevents you from remaining hydrated throughout the duration of your outdoor activity.
A hydration pack consists of a "bladder" or reservoir to store liquid as well as a hose which allows the wearer to drink the liquid hands free while on the move. The water or liquid is administered via a bite valve' which opens when the wearer bites on it.
Pros and Cons of Hydration backpacks
Before you commit to buying a hydration pack, it is important that you consider the pros and cons regarding their use. As mentioned earlier, the main benefits of a hydration backpack include:
1. You avoid having to interrupt or stop your activity each time you feel thirsty. You can easily take in water or some other liquid even while engaged in your outdoor activity like cycling down a track on a mountain bike. One major benefit of being able to drink consistently and easily is that you will be properly hydrated.
2. Another benefit of hydration packs is that they let you carry more liquid. A typical hydration pack can hold about 1.5 to 3 liters of liquid, which makes them suitable mainly for outdoor activities such as cycling and hiking.
The disadvantage of hydration packs include:
Leakage and spillage can be a concern.
They can be difficult to clean, especially if you include lots of sports drink powers in your water.
You will have to spend some money to get a good hydration backpack.
Selecting the Right Hydration Backpack
1. Choose a backpack that is Appropriate for Your Outdoor Activity
The outdoor activity you engage in plays a vital part in deciding the type of hydration backpack you should be using. For example, if you are a recreational hiker, a hydration backpack with only a reservoir might be sufficient for you. If you are a mountain biker, you might need additional room within the pack to store things like spare tire tubes or some food.
2. Bite or Sip
Hydration packs are fitted with a tube that has a mouthpiece which you would have to bite in order to release the liquid, or sip straight from the mouthpiece. The tube should be sufficiently flexible to get to when you feel like drinking, particularly when you are snowboarding or cycling.
3. Consider the volume of the reservoir
Choosing the reservoir or bladder volume is vital, because you would not want to get dehydrated even though you are carrying a hydration backpack. Conversely, you also want to avoid needlessly carrying a heavy burden on your back. Take into account the outdoor activity you will be doing, and do not forget to consider the weather conditions also.
Hydration backpacks were initially designed for professional bikers; however they have now become extremely popular among sports enthusiasts throughout the world, due to their utility value.

The First Rules of Football (Soccer)
In December 1863 the founding members of The Football Association met to decide the first rules of football at a tavern in London. The handwritten text still exists. The first official rules in the history of football (soccer) are as follows:
- The maximum length of the ground shall be 200 yards, the minimum breadth shall be 100 yards, the length and breadth shall be marked off with flags; and the goals shall be defined by two upright posts, 8 yards apart, without any tape or bar across them.
- The winner of the toss shall have the choice of goals. The game shall be commenced by a place kick from the centre of the ground by the side losing the toss, the other side shall not approach within 10 yards of the ball until it is kicked off.
- After a goal is won the losing side shall kick off and goals shall be changed.
- A goal shall be won when the ball passes between the goal posts or over the space between the goal posts (at whatever height), not being thrown, knocked on, or carried.
- When the ball is in touch the first player who touches it shall throw it from the point on the boundary line where it left the ground, in a direction at right angles with the boundary line.
- When a player has kicked the ball any one of the same side who is nearer to the opponent's goal line is out of play and may not touch the ball himself nor in any way whatever prevent any other player from doing so until the ball has been played; but no player is out of play when the ball is kicked from behind the goal line.
- In case the ball goes behind the goal line, if a player on the side to whom the goal belongs first touches the ball, one of his side shall be entitled to a free kick from the goal line at the point opposite the place where the ball shall be touched. If a player of the opposite side first touches the ball, one of his side shall be entitled to a free kick (but at the goal only) from a point 15 yards from the goal line opposite the place where the ball is touched. The opposing side shall stand behind their goal line until he has had his kick.
- If a player makes a fair catch he shall be entitled to a free kick, provided he claims it by making a mark with his heel at once; and in order to take such kick he may go as far back as he pleases, and no player on the opposite side shall advance beyond his mark until he has kicked.
- No player shall carry the ball.
- Neither tripping nor hacking shall be allowed and no player shall use his hands to hold or push his adversary. - A player shall not throw the ball or pass it to another.
- No player shall take the ball from the ground with his hands while it is in play under any pretence whatever.
- No player shall wear projecting nails, iron plates, or gutta percha on the soles or heels of his boots.
This list of the first rules of football is the start of the history of modern football (soccer). Since then, some changes have been made, but this is where it all began. The current list of rules is named Laws of the Game and consists of seventeen separate laws.

Jogging - Jogging - Health Benefits And How To Do It
Performing regular jogging gives better physical condition and other health benefits. Jogging also gives physical and mental pleasure.
THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF JOGGING
Jogging on a regular basis give a distinct good effect upon the general health, provided it is not over-done. The effects are:
* Jogging makes the heart stronger. It increases the capacity of the blood circulation and of the respiratory system.
* It speeds up the digestive system and helps you get rid of digestive trouble.
* It counteracts depression.
* It increases the capacity to work and lead an active life.
* Jogging makes you burn fat and thereby helps against over-weight.
* If you suffer from poor appetite, jogging will improve your appetite.
* Jogging will strengthens the muscles of your legs, hips and back. However you will not get very big muscles from jogging.
* Jogging makes you sleep better.
THE PLEASURE OF JOGGING
Jogging gives you physical and mental joy, provided you do not exhaust yourself. When jogging is done correctly, you will actually feel less tired when you have finished a tour than before you began. You get nice feelings in your muscles during the jogging and afterwards.
You will feel the wind blowing around your body. You will hear the birds singing, the music of running water in the streams, or the sound of waves dashing towards the seashore. During the jogging you will also get a euphoric mental feeling after some time.
CLOTHES AND SHOES
The type of clothes you were must be suited to the weather conditions. In warm weather, shorts and a t-shirt is enough. However, it may be useful to carry along an extra piece of clothe in a light back-pack if you run out on a long route, in case the weather aggravates. In colder weather you must add more layers of clothes. In either case, the requirements for the clothes are:
You should use light and soft clothes without any sharp sutures, hard edges or massive folds. They should sit fairly close to your body, but not so close that you feel squeezed, trapped, or so that your movements are hindered.
The clothes should give good ventilation for moisture and sweat and perspiration through the fabric. The fabric should ideally hold water totally out from the outside, but this requirement is difficult to achieve together with the requirement of good ventilation.
You should use fairly soft shoes, but with a good shape fitting the anatomical shape of your feet. The soles should easily bend during the normal movements of your feet, but support well against the ground. The underside of the sole should give friction against any type of grounds, so that you do not slide during jogging. The soles should buffer well against each impact from the ground.
JOGGING ROUTES AND SESSIONS
Jogging may be performed in a lot of ways
* Long distance jogging 6-20 km in a moderate speed on even roads or paths.
* Short distance jogging 3-6 km in a high speed.
* Jogging upwards in a steep terrain 3-4 km, in a speed adjusted to the steepness
* Jogging in a hilly terrain with paths going both up an down 4-8 km
It is advisable to vary the type of jogging from day to day. Then the jogging gets funnier and you get a variable type of training.
HOW TO PERFORM A JOGGING SESSION
You should move slowly with little efforts the first few hundred meters to warm up your muscles. Then you gradually increase your muscular work and speed. When you have done half the route, you can take a speedy spurt using most of your capacity. If the route is long enough, you can take two or three spurts using nearly full capacity.The last hundred meters you gradually slow down again.
STRETCHING YOUR BODY BEFORE AND AFTER EACH SESSION
It is advisable to stretch out both before and after each jogging session, and not only the muscles in your feet, but your whole body 2 minutes before and 3-4 minutes after the session. When stretching out do the following movements:
* Bend forward and touch your toes.
* Kneel down on one of your feet, and stretch the other out backwards.
* Bend your body to both sides.
* Stretch out an arm, grab something, and turn your body round so that your arm is bent backwards.
* Shoot your abdomen foreword, so that your spinal column is stretched into a bow.
* Place your hands behind your neck and stretch your arms backwards. Then twist your body to left and right, also bend to each side.
After the jogging it is sometimes best to wait for some minutes before you stretch out, so that the worst tiredness has gone away first.
WHEN AND HOW OFTEN
If jogging is the only sport activity done, a jogging session every second day is ideal. This is enough to give all the health benefits and increase your condition and endurance gradually, but without wearing yourself out. If you combine jogging by other types of sport activities, 2 times a week may be enough.
You should not be too hungry before jogging, but it is not advisable to take a jogging session straight after a big meal. The time of the day does not matter, but your jogging should not be the first thing you do in the morning.
HOW TO BEGIN

The first times, you should only jog on plain ground and only for 10 minutes. Then you can increase the time, distance and speed, and choose steeper and more difficult paths.
THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF JOGGING
Jogging on a regular basis give a distinct good effect upon the general health, provided it is not over-done. The effects are:

You will feel the wind blowing around your body. You will hear the birds singing, the music of running water in the streams, or the sound of waves dashing towards the seashore. During the jogging you will also get a euphoric mental feeling after some time.
CLOTHES AND SHOES
The type of clothes you were must be suited to the weather conditions. In warm weather, shorts and a t-shirt is enough. However, it may be useful to carry along an extra piece of clothe in a light back-pack if you run out on a long route, in case the weather aggravates. In colder weather you must add more layers of clothes. In either case, the requirements for the clothes are:
You should use light and soft clothes without any sharp sutures, hard edges or massive folds. They should sit fairly close to your body, but not so close that you feel squeezed, trapped, or so that your movements are hindered.
The clothes should give good ventilation for moisture and sweat and perspiration through the fabric. The fabric should ideally hold water totally out from the outside, but this requirement is difficult to achieve together with the requirement of good ventilation.
You should use fairly soft shoes, but with a good shape fitting the anatomical shape of your feet. The soles should easily bend during the normal movements of your feet, but support well against the ground. The underside of the sole should give friction against any type of grounds, so that you do not slide during jogging. The soles should buffer well against each impact from the ground.
JOGGING ROUTES AND SESSIONS
Jogging may be performed in a lot of ways
* Long distance jogging 6-20 km in a moderate speed on even roads or paths.
* Short distance jogging 3-6 km in a high speed.
* Jogging upwards in a steep terrain 3-4 km, in a speed adjusted to the steepness
* Jogging in a hilly terrain with paths going both up an down 4-8 km
It is advisable to vary the type of jogging from day to day. Then the jogging gets funnier and you get a variable type of training.
HOW TO PERFORM A JOGGING SESSION
You should move slowly with little efforts the first few hundred meters to warm up your muscles. Then you gradually increase your muscular work and speed. When you have done half the route, you can take a speedy spurt using most of your capacity. If the route is long enough, you can take two or three spurts using nearly full capacity.The last hundred meters you gradually slow down again.
STRETCHING YOUR BODY BEFORE AND AFTER EACH SESSION
It is advisable to stretch out both before and after each jogging session, and not only the muscles in your feet, but your whole body 2 minutes before and 3-4 minutes after the session. When stretching out do the following movements:
* Bend forward and touch your toes.
* Kneel down on one of your feet, and stretch the other out backwards.
* Bend your body to both sides.
* Stretch out an arm, grab something, and turn your body round so that your arm is bent backwards.
* Shoot your abdomen foreword, so that your spinal column is stretched into a bow.
* Place your hands behind your neck and stretch your arms backwards. Then twist your body to left and right, also bend to each side.
After the jogging it is sometimes best to wait for some minutes before you stretch out, so that the worst tiredness has gone away first.
WHEN AND HOW OFTEN
If jogging is the only sport activity done, a jogging session every second day is ideal. This is enough to give all the health benefits and increase your condition and endurance gradually, but without wearing yourself out. If you combine jogging by other types of sport activities, 2 times a week may be enough.
You should not be too hungry before jogging, but it is not advisable to take a jogging session straight after a big meal. The time of the day does not matter, but your jogging should not be the first thing you do in the morning.

Sports - Free Flight Exploits In Europe
The allure of flying has prompted man to make remarkable discoveries and developments in the fields of transportation, entertainment, and even sports. For who would not want to soar high above to experience a bird’s eye view of spectacular sceneries?
If you want to test your gut, engage in a free flight sports. Free flight has many forms but the most common of which are paragliding and hang gliding.
In Europe, free flight exploits are regular but nonetheless marvelous ways to tour and enjoy its captivating landscapes and seascapes, thanks to pleasant climate and fresh air. The proliferation of many gliding events, flying centers and gliding clubs demonstrate the fact that paragliding and hang gliding are serious sports thrills in this continent.
Gliding in the Air
Paragliding and hang gliding are cousins. A paraglider is shaped like a wing but with a billowy appearance while a hang glider takes a more rigid form of a V-shaped wing.
A paraglider is made from fabric and strings. Inflated by air through its holes, the fabric of the paraglider forms a hollow wing, thus creating a billowy appearance. Suspended from this wing are several fine strings, which connect to a harness that serves as your seating. Speed and direction are manipulated by pulling on some of the strings, which in turn warp the back of the wing. Because of its construction and materials, a paraglider is literally an aircraft in a rucksack.
A hang glider, on the other hand, is made from lightweight metal frames but also covered with a fabric. Moving the metal bar in front of you controls the speed and direction of your flight.
Both are lightweight gliders, which can reach thousand of feet above land, cover several hundreds of miles, and stay up in the air for hours. Both can be launched by yourself too, as long as you get ample training and muster enough flying spirit in you.
However, being lighter, paragliding is the more popular sport. Weight matters especially when you have to travel up a hill from where to launch. It is also slower and therefore easier to learn than hang gliding. But if you want more speed, hang gliding is your thing. Hang gliding also requires greater skill especially in landings.
Takeoff Points
Hang gliding is a fresh way to tour Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro. Fly at about 1700 feet above well-known beaches and mountains. No prior experience needed since you will be accompanied by a certified master. Most tours last about two hours, with about 15 to 20 minutes in the air.
Slovenia has also many launch sites, having hosted several world championships in gliding and paragliding. So do United Kingdom, France where paragliding is called parapenting), Ireland, Germany, Turkey, and many other nations of the region. The Derbyshire Peak District in the UK and the Chamonix Valley in France are only two of the many popular spots dedicated for gliding and similar sports.
Whichever of these sites you plan on taking that first launch, what is basic should be mastered, especially when you’re planning to go solo flying. Master how to control wind, for it will carry you throughout the flight.
These free flight activities roll transportation, entertainment, and sports into one breath-taking exploit of the unexplored beauty of nature, letting you take yourself to specific spots your heart desires.

Trampoline Trick - Jumping Your Way To Fun
For an activity that's packed with thrills and excitement, it's hard to beat trampolining. It's a lot like bouncing up and down on the old spring bed when you were very young... except that you can bounce a lot higher, and increased area gives you more room to perform stunts.
Besides being a lot of fun, trampolining is a great body conditioner, helping you develop balance, rhythm, coordination, and a keen sense of timing.
Stretched within the frame is the performing surface or bed, about twelve feet long and eight feet wide. The heavy canvas or woven webbing sheet is attached with elastic cords or metal springs.
Make sure that safety pads are on the metal sides of the frame. Safety pads are required accessories, protecting you in case you land off the bed.
For further protection, you'll also need spotters, to catch or warn you if you get too close to the edge.
When you mount the trampoline, always climb carefully onto the bed. Don't chance an injury trying to leap onto the frame
And be just as careful when you dismount . . . climbing over the frame rather than bouncing onto a hard floor. Practice mounting and dismounting a few times to get used to doing it right.
Initial Exercises
Spend a few minutes bouncing low and easily ... getting the feel of the trampoline. As you gain confidence, you can begin bouncing a little higher.
Hit the canvas with your feet about eighteen inches apart, and flex your knees. As you land, let your arms come down to your sides.
Swing them forward and up as you bounce up from the bed. As you go up...bring your feet together and stretch your arms above your head at the top of the bounce. As you drop to the bed again... swing your arms back down to your sides, and open your legs again. If you want to stop bouncing...flex your knees the instant you touch the bed, and hold them flexed. This kills your spring, preventing an uncontrolled bounce.
Work on the simple bounce until the form feels comfortable and natural. Then you can begin trying some of the bounce variations.
The half pirouette is one of the easiest to learn. All you do is bounce, half twist in the air, and come down facing in the opposite direction.
Start the half pirouette with a regular bounce. But, instead of swinging both arms above your head ...pull your outside arm across your stomach to help you spin. Your outside arm is your right arm if you're turning to your left.
You should find it easy to half-spin your body so that you come down facing in the opposite direction. By adding a little more twist or spin... you can do the full pirouette. Just pull your outside arm harder across your stomach, so your body spins all the way around...and you come down facing in the same direction as when you started the bounce. Throw your arms to the sides to stop your spin as you land.
Work on both the half pirouette and the full pirouette until you can do them gracefully, with your body straight and with the right amount of spin.
Then you can go on to the tuck bounce. Here you bounce high into a tuck or ball, and drop back to the bed in regular bounce position.
Begin the tuck bounce as you would a regular bounce. But as your feet leave the bed...bring your knees up close to your chest and grab your shins so your body is tucked into a tight ball. On the way down...let go of your shins and straighten your body so you land in regular standing position.
Once you've learned these elementary bounces...try practicing them in combinations. Your success as a trampoline performer will depend on how well you build one skill upon another, mastering each new step through repeated practice. A thorough knowledge of the fundamentals will go a long way toward helping you become a top-notch trampoline man.

playing pros
In 1895, 10 professional golfers and one amateur played in the first U.S. Open in Newport, R.I. Shortly thereafter, tournaments began to pop up across the country. There was the Western Open in 1899. But this was not "tour" golf. The events lacked continuity.
Interest in the game, however, continued to grow. American professionals were rapidly improving. And when John McDermott became the first American-born player to win the U.S. Open in 1911, interest in the game blossomed.
That interest became enthusiasm in 1913 when Englishmen Harry Vardon and Ted Ray came to the United States to play an exhibition tour and compete in the U.S. Open. When 20-year-old amateur Francis Ouimet defeated the pair in a playoff for the Open at Brookline, Mass., golf became front-page news and a game for everyone.
In the early 1920s, a series of tournaments was held on the West Coast, in Texas and Florida. These events were held in the winter, and the golfers played their way east and up to Pinehurst, N.C., in the spring. By the middle of the decade, the tour was doing relatively well -- offering $77,000 in total prize money.
The first "playing pros" organization was formed in 1932. Two years earlier, Bob Harlow had been named manager of the PGA Tournament Bureau. The tour became more structured following World War II and exploded in the late 1950s and early '60s. When Arnold Palmer, televised golf and President Dwight D. Eisenhower arrived on the scene in the late 1950s, the eyes of the world were on golf. This exposure inspired millions to try the game.
Most golf historians would trace the "formal" beginning of the PGA TOUR to late 1968, when the "Tournament Players Division" split from the PGA of America and hired Joseph C. Dey as its first commissioner. That organization became the modern-day PGA TOUR. Dey served from early 1969 through Feb. 28, 1974, and was succeeded by Deane R. Beman on March 1, 1974.
During Beman's administration, the value of tournament purses escalated at an unprecedented rate: PGA TOUR assets grew from $730,000 in 1974 to more than $200 million, and total revenues increased from $3.9 million to $229 million in 1993.
Timothy W. Finchem, previously the TOUR's Deputy Commissioner and Chief Operating Officer, became the TOUR's third Commissioner on June 1, 1994. In 1995, Finchem undertook a restructuring program designed to strengthen the PGA TOUR's core business, which is its competitions; expand the TOUR's international scope and prepare it to enter the 21st century. In 1996, Finchem helped spearhead formation of the International Federation of PGA Tours, as golf's five world governing bodies laid the groundwork for taking competition into the next millennium.
In 1997, the Federation announced the World Golf Championships, which made their debut in 1999 with three events-the Accenture Match Play Championship, NEC Invitational and American Express Championship. The World Cup joined this group in 2000.
Since 1938, PGA TOUR events have donated more than $800 million to charity, making a mark in the communities in which the TOUR plays through its charity campaign, "Giving Back...The Heart of the PGA TOUR."
The competitive scope of the PGA TOUR also is much broader today. The Champions Tour, formerly called the Senior PGA Tour, has been labeled the most successful senior sports venture in history. An interactive element with fans and television viewers has brought new exposure to the Tour. Since starting out with just two cosponsored events and $250,000 in prize money in 1980, the Champions Tour has grown to more than 30 events. And the Charles Schwab Cup will be competed for the fourth time in 2004.
The Nationwide Tour, under that sponsorship umbrella for the first time in 2003, has been recognized as a virtual extension of the PGA TOUR with its excellent level of play that saw 55 percent of its alumni making up the 2003 PGA TOUR. The Nationwide Tour provides outstanding golf competition in 30 communities while raising significant charity dollars. Among the former players on this TOUR who have gone on to star on the PGA TOUR are David Duval, Tom Lehman, Jeff Maggert, Stuart Appleby, Stewart Cink, David Toms, 2003 U.S. Open winner Jim Furyk and 2003 PGA Champion Shaun Micheel.
Also continuing to grow is the Tournament Players Club Network. When the PGA TOUR opened the Tournament Players Club at Sawgrass in 1980, it introduced the era of stadium golf and record-breaking attendance. Owned and/or operated by the TOUR, these courses are the only major-league sports venues owned by the players themselves.

Improve the Quality of your Practice by Keeping a Record
Record, shoot video or take notes Keep a record of your actions and the results they produce for you. By recording your performance, on videotape if you are golfing, or by using audiotape or notes if you are at work, you can start to look for helpful or harmful patterns.
How many putts a round do you average? Do you hit all your drives in the right rough or are most of your bad shots pulled?
What percentage of prospects do you close? This type of self evaluation will indicate clearly to you the areas most urgently in need of improvement? As you collect this valuable information, continue to take notes, writing down both the problem and solution. Chart your progress and monitor your results frequently, even daily. In the heat of battle, it is amazing how even the most proficient among us tends to forget the simplest of fundamentals, like keeping our heads still, taking the clubhead away slowly or remembering to ask for a sale.
Brief notes in a diary, on scraps of paper or even on table napkins have provided a written reminder of a key fundamental and resulted in victory in many a tournament. For some champions the secret is contained in a single word or phrase taped inside their locker door.
When Britain's Tony Jacklin arrived at his locker on the final day of the 1970 US Open Championship, he found his good friend Tom Weiskopf had taped a message to the door. The message was short and sweet. There were only two words. "Tempo, Jacko."
Now who would have thought the reigning British Open Champion, a man going into the final round with one of the biggest leads in US Open history, would need such basic advice. As it happened, Jacklin gave much of the credit for his victory to those two little words. The difficult Hazeltine National course made some of the big name players of the day pay a severe toll. Dave Hill, who finished second, said, "All this course lacks is 80 acres of corn and some cows." Well, in spite of Hill's lack of affection for the venue, Jacklin maintained that smooth tempo and became the first Briton to win the US Open since Ted Ray in 1920, and by seven shots, the second largest margin in history.
Weiskopf's little reminder helped him achieve his victory. As you know, we may not always need to be told, but we do need to be reminded from time to time.

Daly, former fiancee trade court filings in libel lawsuit
LITTLE ROCK -- John Daly and his former fiancee are still trading court filings in a libel suit she brought against the golfer.
Shanae Chandler is suing Daly because of comments he allegedly made in 2001 to Sports Illustrated columnist Rick Reilly, who includes the quotes in his 2003 book, "Who's Your Caddy?"
In that book, Daly uses expletives when referring to Chandler. He is quoted as saying, "I had a buddy of mine from the FBI tailin' her for three weeks," adding that she "was cheatin' on me! She was lyin' to me! And I've got proof!"
Daly filed a motion to dismiss the suit, saying Arkansas courts don't have jurisdiction in the case because Daly is a resident of Tennessee. Chandler filed the suit April 21 in U.S. District Court of Eastern Arkansas.
In a court filing last month, Daly argued through his attorney, Bunny Bullock, that he is "a resident of Tennessee, not Arkansas; moreover, he does not have sufficient minimum contacts with the state of Arkansas to warrant this court's exercise of personal jurisdiction over him."
Daly, former winner of the British Open and PGA Championship, said he lives and votes in Tennessee. He is a native of Dardanelle, where he recently purchased a golf course and renamed it Lion's Den Golf Club.
The filing argued that Daly spends less than five percent of his time in Arkansas and proposed a transfer to the Western District of Tennessee, "where the defendant resides and where much of defendant's evidence and witnesses are located."
Chandler responded through a court filing May 30, which said Daly had been served with the complaint in Dardanelle and that "defendant cannot complain of this court's exercise of jurisdiction over him when served in Arkansas."
Chandler's filing also cited several factors that it said were evidence that Arkansas was the proper place to try the suit, including property assessments, Tennessee vehicle registration records that list his address as Dardanelle and excerpts from his 2006 book "John Daly: My Life In and Out of the Rough" that include references to Arkansas.
Daly filed a reply Wednesday, asking again that the case be dismissed or "at a minimum, his motion to transfer should be granted."

A Closer Look at Elway
Editor's note: "Homecoming" is a new signature ESPN program hosted by award-winning sportswriter Rick Reilly that challenges the old adage, "You can't go home again." Reilly will bring his unique style of storytelling to this one-on-one interview program to be shot in the hometown or "formative place" of an A-list athlete. In a warm setting made up of the athlete's friends, family and admirers, we will spend an hour exploring and celebrating how a remarkable athlete came to be. After all, home is where the heart is and heart is the intangible that separates a good athlete from a legend.
I've known John Elway since he was a senior at Stanford. I remember going to his room at his frat, knocking on the door, hearing "Come in!" and only being able to open it a foot wide because his waterbed took up nearly the entire room. I covered him for all his years as a Bronco -- all those crushing Super Bowl losses and then the two redeeming Super Bowl wins. Then, when he retired in a puddle of tears, we became friends, playing golf here and there, both going through divorces at the same time, both with kids the same age, trying to figure out life over the occasional adult beverage together or three.
But going home with him to Granada Hills showed me a completely new side of him. I learned how very close he was to his late twin sister, Jana. How they always got lockers next to each other because they were such good friends. How Jana had a way of looking out for him, knowing when he'd forget his homework or his mouthguard. How hard it kicked him in the gut when Jana died of cancer in 2002, only a year after his dad, Jack, died of a heart attack.
Still, it was mostly a joyous trip home. It was hilarious knocking on the door of the place where he used to live, a modest ranch house on the corner of a typically Californian suburb. He was actually nervous to do it. You never see John Elway nervous. We knocked on the door and again, the door only opened a crack. This time, it was because the guy living there was sure we were Seventh Day Adventists or something. And even when he recognized Elway, he refused to let us in. Said he was making some kind of wrench invention in there, had turned the house into a kind of small factory, and he didn't want us to see it. Very odd. Well, I guess it makes sense. They always said Elway had all the tools.
He finally let us walk around the outside, and Elway showed us where he used to jump off the tile roof into the tiny little pool in the backyard (even though his dad expressly forbade it.) He showed where he used to bring girls home and make out, only to find out later that his sisters would sit under the window and giggle. And then on the way back to the high school, he showed us where he used to hide behind the church fence and pelt cars as hard as he could with oranges. "Man, I hit some cars pretty hard," he admitted. Yeah, you think? The man had a 93-mile per hour fastball back then. That could actually kill a Miata.
The most amazing part, though, was taking him to the field and seeing if he could repeat the old feats I'd always heard about but never believed. Could he really stand on the 30 and throw a football that hit the crossbar 40 yards away? We turned on the camera. He did it on the first try. Damn. Could he really dropkick a field goal from 30 yards out? He did it on the first try. Could he really hit a teammate's thrown ball with his own from 15 yards away as it fell? No, he couldn't. He came close, but he couldn't. Thank God. That one was going to cost me plenty of adult beverages.

BMW final round to resume at 9AM ET Monday
BMW Championship
LAKE FOREST, Ill. – Jim Furyk will have another night to sleep on his 54-hole lead.
The final round of the BMW Championship was suspended for the day at 5 p.m. ET Sunday after heavy rains soaked Conway Farms and made the course unsuitable for play.
Play will resume at 9 a.m. ET Monday. Golf Channel will broadcast the final round live beginning at 10 a.m. ET.
“We’ve had a pretty trying day,” said PGA Tour rules official Slugger White. “We did everything we possibly could to get this thing in, but it just wasn’t going to happen, unfortunately.”
Only six of the 70 players in the field were able to complete all four rounds. Eleven groups have yet to tee off, including the final pairing of Jim Furyk and Steve Stricker. They will tee off at 10:40 a.m. ET, and, barring a playoff, should be finished by 3 p.m.
Photos: Wacky weather dominates 2013
“I guess there’s good and bad news,” said Furyk, who leads at 13-under 200. “The bad news, obviously, is I’m anxious to get out there and play, as is everyone else. But the good news is no one wants to go out and play in this and slop it around in bad weather on a golf course where we’re playing the ball down and it’s probably a little too wet out there.”
Officials said they were surprised by how much rain fell in the Chicago area. Initially, they anticipated about a half-inch of steady rain over a six-hour period; instead, more than an inch fell, and several holes had puddles in the fairways and on the greens.
Play was suspended for the first time at 11 a.m. ET but later resumed after a 3 1/2-hour delay. Players returned to the course, but only for 58 minutes before the horn blew again.
“I think we got the better end of the deal by not even playing in it,” Stricker said. “It looked like it was pretty tough conditions for everybody, and cold weather and rain. I wish we could have got it in.”
White said the most problematic holes were the third green, as well as Nos. 9, 10 and 12.
“(The course) drains pretty well,” he said, “but Mother Nature just won’t give us a break here as far as shutting this faucet off.”
Monday’s forecast looks more promising – slight chance of scattered showers early, then clearing for mostly-cloudy skies and a high temperature of 64 degrees.

Programming: BMW conclusion on Golf Channel 10AM ET Monday
BMW Championship
LAKE FOREST, Ill. – Rain Sunday means televised golf on Monday.
With moderate but consistent rain leaving 22 players unable to begin their final round Sunday at the BMW Championship, tournament officials were forced to suspend play for the day at 5 p.m. ET after an earlier delay of 3 1/2 hours.
With play now set to resume at 9 a.m. ET Monday, Golf Channel will broadcast a bulk of the final round from Conway Farms live, beginning at 10 a.m. ET and continuing until the conclusion of play. The final pairing of the day, Steve Stricker and 54-hole leader Jim Furyk, will now tee off at 10:40 a.m. ET.
Photos: Wacky weather dominates 2013
According to PGA Tour rules official Slugger White, the forecast called for no more than one-half inch of rain Sunday, spread across a six-hour period. Instead, the course outside Chicago was saturated with more than an inch of rain, rendering conditions unplayable.
“We did everything we possibly could to try to get this thing in,” noted White. “It just wasn’t going to happen, unfortunately.”
This event marks the third Monday finish on the PGA Tour this year, as the completions of both the Farmers Insurance Open and the Arnold Palmer Invitational were bumped a day due to inclement weather. Both of those events were won by Tiger Woods, who will begin the fourth round four shots off the lead.
Prior to live final-round coverage of the BMW, "Morning Drive" will begin the day at 7 a.m. ET with all the up-to-the-minute news from the BMW, and will air for three hours until the live tournament coverage begins at 10.
Fans unable to watch on television will be able to watch a live stream online ator can download Golf Channel’s Golf Live Extra app from their mobile devices.
Monday starting times: Woods, 10:20; Furyk, 10:40
LAKE FOREST, Ill. – With driving rains forcing a lengthy delay – and ultimately a suspension of play – at the BMW Championship, only six players were able to complete their final rounds amid soggy conditions at Conway Farms Golf Club.
While most of the field was able to play at least some golf Sunday, the players closest to the lead didn’t put a single ball in play. Twenty-two golfers failed to begin their final round, and will now start back up beginning at 9 a.m. ET Monday.
As a result of the various delays, the day’s final pairing of Steve Stricker and overnight leader Jim Furyk will now tee off at 10:40 a.m. ET Monday. Brandt Snedeker and Zach Johnson, who trail Furyk by two and three shots, respectively, will begin at 10:30 a.m. ET, while world No. 1 Tiger Woods will play alongside Charl Schwartzel in the 10:20 a.m. ET pairing.

The postponement could bode well for Woods, who has claimed each of the Tour’s previous two events this year that were pushed to a Monday finish because of weather – the Farmers Insurance Open in January and the Arnold Palmer Invitational in March. He heads into the final round four shots behind Jim Furyk.
Other marquee groups that will begin the final round Monday morning include current FedEx Cup points leader Henrik Stenson and John Merrick (9:10 a.m. ET), Sergio Garcia and Jason Day (9:40 a.m. ET), and Matt Jones alongside Conway Farms member Luke Donald (9:50 a.m. ET).
Mother Nature continues to bedevil PGA Tour
LAKE FOREST, Ill. – It’s only fitting that this PGA Tour season is coming to a soggy conclusion.
From wind to fog to snow to derechos to the plain ol’ wet stuff, it’s clear that Mother Nature is No. 1 in the latest FedEx Cup standings. No math necessary.
The latest weather-related issue to plague the Tour will push the BMW Championship to a fifth day. The BMW is the third non-scheduled Monday finish on Tour this season, following the Farmers Insurance Open (fog) and Arnold Palmer Invitational (rain). Interestingly, Tiger Woods won both of those events. Here, he is four shots behind with 18 holes to play.
BMW Championship: Articles, videos and photos
The BMW is the 22nd event that has been suspended this season. In all, play has been stopped at some point more than 50 times, with delays for rain, fog, lightning, thunderstorms, snow, hail, sleet, frost, darkness and high winds. All three FedEx Cup events have seen some stoppage of play.
The BMW has had particularly hard luck – this is the sixth time in nine years that the event has been suspended by weather.

“The nice thing is that Atlanta, we’ve all seen it,” Zach Johnson said. “It’s really good. It’s really difficult. It hasn’t changed. There’s a slight altering of the schedule, but you have to just roll with it. There’s not a winner in all of this.”
From wind to fog to snow to derechos to the plain ol’ wet stuff, it’s clear that Mother Nature is No. 1 in the latest FedEx Cup standings. No math necessary.

The BMW is the third non-scheduled Monday finish on Tour this season, following the Farmers Insurance Open (fog) and Arnold Palmer Invitational (rain). Interestingly, Tiger Woods won both of those events. Here, he is four shots behind with 18 holes to play.

How To Easily Make Great Tasting Coffee
Many people feel that a great coffee drink is the ultimate pleasure in the morning. Making coffee is not only a skill, but also a form of art. It is not hard, however, to learn the fine skills needed to make coffee. Apply the tips from this article to make the perfect brew of coffee.
Are you having trouble duplicating the flavors you enjoy in local coffee shops? The amount of coffee you use may be the reason. Most coffee shops use two tablespoons of coffee for six ounces of water. Experiment with your own ratios until you find your magic number that gives you the flavor you're looking for.
It is important that you know about the grinds you ought to be using for the kind of coffee you like. Beans ground finely are ideal for espresso, though beans ground to a medium texture are ideal for conventional coffee machines. Alternately, French presses work best with coarsely ground beans. Make sure you choose the right consistency.
Better coffee costs more money. Always buy the best quality beans and brewing equipment you can afford. The tendency to cut costs can leave you with a less than satisfying cup of coffee.
Whenever you measure the water and coffee grounds, you should think about the number of cups you wish to create. A normal coffee cup contains six ounces; a normal measuring cup contains eight. Six ounces of water should be mixed with two tablespoons of your favorite ground coffee for an optimal taste. Your brew will be watered down if you use a measuring cup.
For the best results from an older coffee maker, first brew some hot water before you make any coffee. Once the hot water is ready, put the coffee grounds in and return the water to the coffee machine. The brew you create will be hot and tasty.
Follow any social media profiles for the coffeehouse or shops of your choice. This is often a good way to learn about new coffees, to get expert advice and to hear about special promotions. Sometimes they even provide coupons and discounts that are only available online, and these can save you money on your coffee purchases in the future.
If you are unhappy with the flavor or strength of your coffee, then it might be time to look for a new supplier. Chances are, supermarket coffee isn't the freshest. If you go to a coffee shop for the coffee, you can get beans that are not as old.
Try creating specialty coffees right in your kitchen. Make cafe mocha, a latte, or other drinks that you get at a coffeehouse. You can spare spending some bucks, and you might just discover you make them perfectly well!
Putting food and drinks in the freezer makes them keep longer, but there's a limit to this. For coffee, three months is about the longest it can stay frozen. If it stays there longer, the quality will go down.
Try adding flavored syrups to your coffee before milk or creamer. In hot coffee, syrup dissolves rapidly. This also brings out the full flavor and aroma of the syrup. Then, you can add your flavored creamers or other cooling products.
After buying coffee beans and opening the bag, don't leave them in that bag as your storage solution. Instead, store them in an airtight container. This can increase the level of crispness and freshness that you experience.
You can probably already pinpoint a few ways that you have been unconsciously sabotaging your coffee. Tomorrow, make the absolute best cup of coffee to start your morning off right. Start trying the above tips the very next time you brew.
