PING has added the Ping K15 Driver to the range to offer a product with even more forgiveness than the G15 range. In the K15 driver they have pushed 10% of the mass
of the head into the heel to
help straighten wayward flights. The large surface area of the
face has been designed to maximize forgiveness.
It’s always something of a thrill to get your hands on a new set of clubs and particularly so when they come from Ping. Having used my current set of irons for some time now – foolishly purchased for their sleek aesthetics rather than ease of use, a fatal mistake for any mid-high handicapper – it was a genuine pleasure to use the new Ping K15 irons.
The K15 Driver has a larger 460cc head design that moves weight away from the clubface to push the centre of gravity backwards and provide a higher trajectory.
By increasing the length from heel to toe, ping Company has also been able to create a larger surface to provide high levels of forgiveness and higher ball velocity.
The wide sole enables the Ping K15 clubs to sit comfortably behind the ball, almost positioning and aligning them, and it wasn’t long before I was struck with the realization of how easy they are to use. At no point did I feel the need to force shots, such was the ease in getting the ball airborne without any loss of distance, and as a result I was swinging easier and more consistently.
The Ping K15 Driver‘s chunky design and dark grey finish won’t be to everyone’s taste, but if they consistently send the ball where you want it to go I don’t think anyone would complain.
I also got a chance to try out a No.4 hybrid which on first impressions makes you think that the unusual shape and design shouldn’t be used for hitting a golf ball.

Car bulbs are a very small component with a very large role in your safety! Imagine driving at night without headlights. Crazy, right? Well that’s what would happen if your headlight bulbs have gone.
Whether you’ve got HID lights or LED car bulbs, if your bulb has gone then it’s time to change them otherwise your safety is at risk and you may be pulled over and fined by the police which is never a welcome occasion.
But how do you change car bulbs? It isn’t some mystical art only known to mechanics! In fact it’s pretty easy and you don’t even need any tools to do it.
Before you start though it’s necessary to check which car bulbs you need! After all, you can’t just guess! The best place to check is your car’s manual which will tell you the model of bulb installed. If you still aren’t sure then remove one of the old bulbs and check it, it may say the model; you could also call into your local motoring store or mechanic and ask them.
• Open the car’s bonnet and locate the back of the headlight. You’ll see three wires coming out of a plug that’s kind of triangular in shape.
• You need to disconnect the wires (wiring harness) and the plug which is actually connected at the bottom of the headlight bulbs. Depending on type you may need to unscrew, unclip, or simply pull off the plug.
• Now you should grab the bottom of the bulb (where the plug was connected to) and gently remove the old bulb by pulling it out. If it is still fixed in place try wiggling or rotating it slightly and it should soon come loose.
• It’s time to put in the new bulb, but before you start it’s important to note that you should never touch car bulbs of any type with your bare fingers. Any dust or oil left on the surface will affect their performance and shorten their life-span, so grab them with a clean cloth or clean gloves and try to avoid touching the glass at all.
• Push the new bulb into the slot where you removed the old bulb from and make sure that it is completely inside and fits flush with the back of the headlight.
• Rewire the bulb with the plug and make sure that any clip holding everything in place is secure.
• Turn on your shiny new headlight bulbs!
Yes, it really is that easy! So now you can kiss goodbye to your local mechanic who has been laughing all the way to the bank after charging unsuspecting motorists like you for this simple job.
To get the most out of this finance-busting process though you’ll want to buy your new bulbs online. Here you’ll find far cheaper prices than the high-street or the local mechanic, so check your car bulbs today and if you think they’re due a change order your new bulbs and in just a few days they’ll arrive and you’ll be good to go!

The footwear industry has seen a sea change in recent years. Technology has definitely given it an edge over the other design industry. Designer footwear is no longer a business just set to meet the requirement of a small group of people. Indeed, it has grown into giant brands and designers have become professionals. They cater to a global market. Footwear designers are highly paid experts who work for a team who will help execute the designs and market it for the brand.
A footwear designer has to create designs for clients in the country and also global. So once the targeted group is decided, designers will sketch their designs roughly and give it a shape and life. The clients can also be corporate, new start ups and individuals who want some custom made quality shoes for a specific occasion.
Before actually designing the designer footwear, a mood board is created for the client to get them into the trend. This is done with magazine clips and samples of materials likely to be used. A research on the targeted group is done keeping in mind their style of living and environment.
With the inspiration of the client the designer gives the design more shape and colour. At this stage again, the target price of a pair and where the shoes are going to be sold will definitely influence the design. The texture used, the kind of sole to be used and an added design like gems or a bow, will also be the designer’s concern. The design or sketch has to go to the research department and check if the design is in accordance with the guidelines. A CAD drawing of the design is more understandable.
Now is the stage where pattern cutting and samples are made. The actual product is made and the client will try it on and come back with their feedback.
Once production starts, the strategy of marketing designer footwear is the most important phase. This stage enables the finished product to reach the right customer on order basis at the right time.High end designer shoes can be launched in a fashion show. Marketing techniques vary when the stores are going to be sold in exclusive stores or outlets. Also, online shopping vendors will have to use a different strategy. The designer not only designs but also researches and markets the product innovatively to send across the idea to the customers directly. Advertising plays a vital role here. A designer usually gets repeat order only when the initial designs are a success with the people. It is every designer’s dream to make their clients happy and keep getting feedbacks to keep their design updated.

Most of us have seen or at least heard about soccer trophies. They are handed out to the winning team at the end of any tournament or cup and so they are considered to be the gift that symbolizes the memory of the win for ever. Some tournament organizers present the winning teams with new soccer trophies each year while other tournaments decide to pass the same soccer trophies from winner to winner as each year passes. A good example for this latter case is the World Cup, with the winning team from this year having to pass their trophy to the next year’s winner. As the soccer phenomenon grows more with each passing year we see more and more youth tournaments and competitions that are meant to provide the best players of tomorrow. In the cases of these smaller events, soccer trophies are great mementos that go into the private collection of each team so that all future generations of players know what they are fighting for.
Manufacturing youth soccer trophies requires the same exact processes that are used for the creation of any other types of soccer trophies.
The best part about the ability to get the exact soccer trophies that are right for the event you are hosting is that you are not only able to choose from a wide variety of youth soccer trophies but also help create your own. Soccer trophies are used by individual teams to showcase their results to all future players. This helps a lot with motivating players to work harder and achieve better results. For those interested in finding very special soccer trophies, there are really no limits especially if you consider that there are numerous companies that welcome the artistic input of their customers.
The freedom of the creative process extends to all aspects of youth soccer trophies and soccer trophies, ranging from the materials used and the overall shape and size of the soccer trophies, to the colors displayed, and numerous others.
Handing out soccer trophies makes the organized tournaments seem more distinguished. In tournaments organized for various charities, the soccer trophies are very important as they must reflect the level of professionalism and the positive intentions of the event. If you do not want the same soccer trophies that are featured by every tournament out there and that usually portray a moving football, then you can suggest a different idea for your youth soccer trophy or even supply a fully finished design.
Generally, ordering your own custom youth soccer trophies that will incorporate elements of design that are copied from your organization, then you will most likely be required to pay fees that are a bit higher than general. Also, keep in mind that certain manufacturers design and create various soccer trophies which feature diverse designs and are sold just once.
