The most recent edition of TravelGolf.com This Week scores a hole-in-one, as host Dave Berner leads the way.

TravelGolf Media President Robert Lewis talks about the big differences between golf in Southern Arizona and Central Arizona

“Phoenix/Scottsdale is really Central Arizona and the capital of golf in the West,” said Lewis. “That’s not my favorite place to golf. When I really want to golf, I especially like going toward the Mexican border and playing Rio Rico.”

Bruce Stasch, the host of Golf Gear News, checks in with his opinion of knock-off clubs.

“It was generally thought of that it you got a cheap import, it was just that - a cheap import,” says Stasch. “But because their technology has improved dramatically, in my opinion, there’s very little difference in what you get from a brand-name manufacturer and what you’re getting from a component manufacturer.”

Berner tells us about the first hole-in-one of his golfing career, and then talks to pro golfer Luke Swilor, who talks about his experience on the mini-tours.

“There’s nights that you’ll have to sleep in the car. Money is a big issue for most of us and not many of us have sponsors.”

Plus: The intricacies of choosing the next contestants on Big Break.
