Before you start reading this paragraph I already know what you are thinking, “Mike this is your biggest stretch ever, a field hockey stick?Ahhh, there is a method to my madness! My son isnt a golfer (I know, it kills me!), and my daughter hasnt shown much interest. However, she has shown interest in field hockey! Think about it, field hockey is basically the same as golf; smack the ball as hard as you can down the field with a stick. Now that my daughter has shown an interest in a golf like sport, I think the transition to the fairway maybe a little easier! Last month I told you about the STX Envision TR putter (www.stxgolf.com). When it arrived, my daughter told me about the great Field Hockey Sticks STX makes as well. Like the Envision TR Putter, that comment started the ball rolling! Come to find out, purchasing a field hockey stick is almost as complicated as buying a new set of irons! STX manufactures wooden and composite field hockey sticks. Like golf, height and position plays into getting the best equipment. When all was said and done, under the Conrad Christmas tree was the STX S2.0 Composite Field Hockey Stick. I can tell you my daughter was just as excited as I get when new clubs arrive!! She was the one that told me about the STX patented weight and design, as well as the flatter edges that allow for better sweep hits. I will tell you my sister was a big field hockey player and now wins long drive contest in almost every tournament she plays in! My hope is my daughters love of field hockey will soon translate to the golf course as well. So if your daughter isnt into golf just yet, check out field hockey and STX field hockey sticks. You can find them online at www.stx.com.

Here is a gift mom and dad can share! The iLuv iMM183 Dual Dock Alarm Clock will keep their relationship strong as there will never be a fight to see who gets to charge their iPod using the iLuv iMM183! Why you may ask? The dual dock in dual dock alarm clock is not only because there are two alarm settings, but there are two iPod docking stations which both charge your iPod or iPhone at once! Once you choose which one to listen too, the sound from the iMM183 is impressive! There are some other features which I think are pretty cool. You can setup the iMM183 for NOAA alerts. I walked into my room the other day and saw there were flash flood warnings for my area in New Hampshire. If you have an iPhone, you can receive a call while docked! Simply hit the answer button and the call will be on speaker phone utilizing the iPhone microphone and the iLuv speaker system. While listening to your favorite tunes, the remote control allows you to easily navigate through your favorite playlist. Whether (yes that was a pun) you use the iLuv iMM183 as an alarm clock, weather alert or an additional docking station, the iLuv is perfect gift for mom & dad. For all the features and other great iLuv products, check them out on-line at www.i-luv.com.

Callaway has the perfect gifts for mom & dad! For Dad, try the Callaway Diablo Edge Driver! There is nothing better than giving Dad extra yardage from his drive. The nice thing about the Callaway Diablo Edge Driver is dad doesnt need to change his swing. The Diablo Edge Driver uses a fused 4-piece titanium design which gives dad a huge sweet spot and optimal ball flight. The design also reduces drag up to 8% over typical 460cc driver heads which will increase his club speed. I was extremely impressed with the consistency and accuracy of the Diablo Edge and believe Callaway has will help your dad hit longer, straighter drives this year. Check out the Callaway Diablo Edge online at www.callawaygolf.com.
