Experience Honma At Roger Dunn Golf Shop

Jul 6, 2018

Roger Dunn Golf Shops are an experience like none other. The minute you walk into the door, it’s nothing but golf from wall to wall. Golf Life took a trip to Santa Ana, CA to visit the Roger Dunn Golf Shop and to experience their brand new Honma swing studio.

The experience immediatley starts when you take your first steps into this amazing warehouse. From wall to wall, it’s all golf. Roger Dunn has an enormous selection of clothing, clubs, shoes, accessories and more. They have 4 different companies with their own swing studio and a 15 bay indoor driving range so you can hit balls. It is truely unlike any golf store open today.

Brand new to the Roger Dunn Golf Shop is Honma’s golf studio. Jam packed with clothing, bags, and golf clubs that you can try out and get fit for. This specific studio is the first of its kind here in America. The only true, in-store golf studio where customers can try the Honma clubs and get fit for them in one location.

The fact that this is the first studio of its kind for Honma is as unique as it gets, but it gets even better. The display cases on the right and left side of the studio are hand-crafted golf clubs that cost more than a car. You do the math, those golf clubs cost a pretty penny and the only place you can buy them, you guessed it, The Roger Dunn Golf Shop in Santa Ana, CA.

Golf Life gives you an in-depth look at the golf shop as well as the state-of-the-art studio by Honma!

Golf Life Interviews Major Dan Rooney

Jul 3, 2018

Golf Life took a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Tulsa, OK to visit the Patriot Golf Club and the Folds Of Honor Headquarters. Major Dan Rooney, an American hero and founder of the Folds of Honor allowed us into his office to learn more about this beautiful golf course and amazing organization.

Major Dan Rooney still flies fast jets for freedom as well as runs an organization called the Folds of Honor. The Folds of Honor is an organization that provides scholarship opportunites to spouces and children of America’s fallen and disabled service-members. Their Motto: “Honor Their Sacrifice. Educate Their Legacy”.

Major Dan Rooney was returning home from his second tour in Iraq as an F16 pilot for the Oklahoma National Guard. He quickly became painfully aware of the reality families face and go through when a loved one in uniform is fallen or disabled. Major Dan decided to do something about by creating Folds of Honor.

Today, Folds of Honors stands tall in Tulsa, OK with the backing of a beautiful golf course; The Patriot Golf Club. The two pieces live next door to each other and they work hand-in-hand to Honor The Sacrifice and Educate The Legacy. One of the coolest golf tournaments this country has to offer happens every Memorial Day at the Patriot Golf Club. Celebrities, Top Executives, PGA Tour Players and more stand side by side and play golf with military veterans in what is called ” The Patriot Golf Day”.

Our Host, Colton Little, stood inside of Major Dan Rooney’s office (inside Folds of Honor) to learn more about the impact the Patriot Golf Club and the Folds of Honor are creating for military and military veteran.

Brady Riggs: Honma Golf Feature

Jun 1, 2018

Brady Riggs is a PGA Teaching Professional and is a good one at that. One of his strengths as a teacher is taking other sports and using techniques to help give athletes a different perspective to the game of golf. There are similarities from sport to sport so for athletes, it can be a quicker learning curve taking different drills and motions from other sports.

For Brady though, he is a sports enthusiast that fell in love with the game of golf. Growing up, it was all about putting a golf ball on the ground and hitting at a target. As he grew up and his playing career hit a ceiling, he turned to teaching.

Riggs is a old fashion golfer that cares about the way a club looks, the way a club head looks and the way the ball sounds off the club. That is why he was turned on to Honma Golf and their golf clubs. Honma Golf Clubs bring him back to what he grew up with. The address at the ball looks great, the feel is amazing and the sound is above and beyond.

Find out what Brady Riggs thinks about Homna Golf Clubs and how he has established his golf game with the brand and is now transferring his love of golf and the clubs to his teaching everyday!

NextLinks: Golfing Entertainment

May 9, 2018

Golf entertainment is latest and greatest in the golfing world. NextLinks bring you the newest way people can go to one destination, have fun with friends and play golf. With NextLinks, their fundamental purpose is to let people enjoy golf no matter the skill level or knowledge. Their solution is giving a full 18-hole experience inside a large warehouse.

How does NextLinks work?

The experience has three main features. 1. The Simulators: Golfers hit all of their tee shots and long iron shots on the simulator. 2. Putting Green (Live Area): Once the golfer gets close enough to the flag stick, they will play out the hole ‘live’ where it allow for both pitches and putts. 3. Technology: This is what brings everything together. The NextLinks technology ties the simulators with the live play areas so that you know where to put the ball on or around the green so you can finish the hole.

One thing that they really take pride on is their putting greens. They have constructed their greens to have the same look, feel and playability as you would see on any golf course outside. With a machine, NextLinks is able to create a new design of the greens so you have the break and slope that you desire.

But it is not just golf. Well, it is all golf, but like any other golfing experience there is a social experience as well. At night, the live play area gets transformed into a nightclub setting with lasers, black lights and spotlights. Everyone gets thirsty when they play golf. That is why they have a lounge for friends and co-workers to socialize and have a good time when they are not playing their round.

For those of you who love new and exciting activities that you can do with your friends or co-workers, NextLinks is the NEXT place you should going. Fun, entertaining and a legitimate golfing experience. What could go wrong? For more information and where they will be building next, Click Here!
