LAKE MARY, FL – The International Network of Golf will host its ClubING hospitality room at the PGA Expo’s Industry Reception Aug. 21 at Lagasse’s Stadium® in the Palazzo Hotel.
The PGA Expo is scheduled for Aug. 20-22 at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas. The Palazzo Hotel is next door to the Venetian. The Industry Reception will start at the close of the first day of the PGA Expo at 5:30.
ClubING will be in one of three private rooms at the spectacular Lagasse’s Stadium sports lounge. Complimentary drink tickets will be distributed from ClubING to ING members and their guests, and free food and beverage stations will be near by.
The non-profit International Network of Golf is where “media and the golf industry connect.” ING has been networking the golf industry since 1990. Membership is open to anyone in the golf industry or media.
ClubING is being sponsored by ING members Avid Golf and Polara Golf. Avid Golf is the producer of The Swedge swing training aid, which addresses a common problem among golfers, the flying elbow. The Swedge is a small, washable half-moon pillow covered with a durable nylon casing that tucks under your arm during the swing. At the top of the backswing, the Swedge should still be in place. Keeping it tucked under your arm creates more power, control and consistency. Invented by Dana Clark, the Swedge comes in three different colors and can be logo’d. It was voted the ING Conference Best Product at the recent ING Spring Conference.
Polara Golf is offering four different Self-Correcting golf balls for 2012 – the original Ultimate StraightTM and Ultimate Straight XSTM and the new advanced XDTM and XDSTM. The original Ultimate Straight™ and Ultimate Straight XS™ golf balls are designed for golfers whose #1 priority is to control hooks or slices. The radical sidespin-reducing characteristics of the Ultimate Straight™ and Ultimate Straight XS™ correct wayward shots by up to 75%. The new advanced XDTM and XDSTM golf balls correct hooks and slices up to 50% and have a higher, more traditional trajectory that enables golfers to achieve extra distance.
Lagasse’s Stadium combines Emeril Lagasse’s signature cuisine and kicked-up game day eats with more than 100 HD TVs including a 9 foot x 16 foot main TV, luxury boxes, plush stadium-style seating, billiard tables, and an outdoor patio just steps from the Strip.
