  • MISGAGRAM Volume 121 – December 2014
    MISGAGRAM Volume 121 – December 2014 www.misga.org President’s Message Jim Beisler is to be commended for the efforts he has made during last year as president of the MISGA BOARD. He had several tough issues to be resolved that he handled in a very professional manner. Now, as I look forward, 2015 is going to be a challenging year. Eastern shore divisions have experienced a substantial drop off in membership and attendance at MISGA functions. Piney Branch and Argyle Country Clubs have decided not to participate in MISGA for 2015. Division 6 membership is down 10% (71) in 2014, but did add Timbers at Troy and Hollow Creek Golf Clubs as new members of MISGA. The Eastern shore divisions were provided suggestions by the Board concerning their issues. Which they stated they would take under consideration. In addition we are in discussion with three other clubs about becoming members in MISGA. They are Links of Gettysburg, Waverly Woods and Waynesboro Golf Courses. I look forward to working with the BOARD and the DIVISIONS in the coming year.

  • Three Easy Steps to the Perfect Putting Stroke Using Your
    The 2,200 year-old elliptical formulas of Apollonius of Perga gave us the math behind The Putting Arc®, and well over 1000 pro wins are proof that The Putting Arc® really does work! Three Easy Steps to the Perfect Putting Stroke Using Your 3 Make a smooth stroke keeping the clubface aligned with the lines on The Putting Arc Place a ball here. and the heel in contact with Arc on half of your 2 practice strokes, 1/2” away on the other half. MSIII (Back of ball even with center line.) 5’ to 6’ Level Putt 1 Place Putting Arc 5 to 6 feet 3 from golf hole with this edge * Note - this distance is for a 4” putterhead 3 /8” or two golf balls aligned 3 3/8” or two balls length. It is slightly less for a shorter head left of hole for an MSIII* and slightly more for an oversize head. The Putting Arc works because… 1. It is based on a natural body movement which can be quickly learned and repeated. Results can be seen in several days; thousands of repetitions are not required. 2. The clubhead travels in a perfect circle of radius R, on an inclined plane. The projection (or shadow) of this circle on the ground is a curved line called an ellipse, and this is the curve found on The Putting Arc. 3. The putter is always on plane (the sweet spot/spinal pivot plane). The intersection of this plane with the ground is a straight line, the ball/target line.

  • Game, Set, Watched: Governance, Social Control and Surveillance in Professional Tennis
    GAME, SET, WATCHED: GOVERNANCE, SOCIAL CONTROL AND SURVEILLANCE IN PROFESSIONAL TENNIS By Marie-Pier Guay A thesis submitted to the Department of Sociology in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada November, 2013 Copyright © Marie-Pier Guay, 2013 Abstract Contrary to many major sporting leagues such as the NHL, NFL, NBA, and MLB, or the Olympic Games as a whole, the professional tennis industry has not been individually scrutinized in terms of governance, social control, and surveillance practices. This thesis presents an in-depth account of the major governing bodies of the professional tennis circuit with the aim of examining how they govern, control, constrain, and practice surveillance on tennis athletes and their bodies. Foucault’s major theoretical concepts of disciplinary power, governmentality, and bio-power are found relevant today and can be enhanced by Rose’s ethico-politics model and Haggerty and Ericson’s surveillant assemblage. However, it is also shown how Foucault, Rose, and Haggerty and Ericson’s different accounts of “modes of governing” perpetuate sociological predicaments of professional tennis players within late capitalism. These modes of surveillance are founded on a meritocracy based on the ATP and WTA rankings systems. A player’s ranking affects how he or she is governed, surveilled, controlled, and even punished.
