Dear Golf Friends,

I am so proud to be able to help the current clients at The Women's Home by hosting this unique golf event. We invited some special members of the LPGA Teaching and Club Professionals, the LPGA Tour, the Tour and World Golf Hall of Fame, along with one of the long drive
champions, to give you a taste of their varied skills and warm personalities. Our host club, Houston National, is one of the finest in Houston and we are honored to be playing there. So sign up, support The Women's Home, and share a fun day of golf with some terrific pros.

Sincerely,

Long Drive Clinic with Brian Pavlet

National Long Drive Champion Brian Pavlet will host an exclusive long drive clinic for all tournament players before the tournament. For a taste of what to expect read the article excerpt below from TravelGolf.com by Jason Scott or view the whole article here.

"Watching Brian Pavlet hit a golf ball is like watching Babe Ruth or Barry Bonds smash a baseball.You can't help but marvel at their strength and power. The 6-foot-4 Pavlet is one of the game's greatest sluggers.

His clinics showcase his power, but he's also an outstanding trick artist. He blasts balls through phone books and plywood. He hits mini-drivers and putters 250 yards. He hits balls off of four-foot tees and blasts balls he tosses into the air.

"No matter where you go, people all want the same thing," Pavlet said. "They want to see something get broke. What I try to do mostly is let people enjoy it and laugh. I want them to have a good time."

Pavlet's personality and sense of humor usually add to the fun. He never takes himself too seriously."
