New Protein that is excellent for golfers...

Hello,

I don't want anybody to think I'm not being up front because I really mean what I'm about to say, but just so you know I work for the company that makes the product I'm about to tell you about. I am the IT Manager though and my job has 0 to do with sales. About two months ago I had to stop golfing for a couple of weeks because my fingers were in so much pain, my shoulder was in a ton of pain and all my joints seem to be giving out on me. I'd go to the range all week and by Saturday/Sunday I'd hurt so bad I couldn't break a 100 for the life of me. Well by pure chance my company started making this product around the same time calle Rx-98 a Whey protein powder with special ingredients to help heal joint pain. I've been taking it regularly since then and I can't tell you how much I've improved. I can actually hit a 300 yard drive now, granted, I've only done it a couple of times and only once on the course, downhill with the wind coming from my back. But still I think part of the credit goes to healing my joint pain. I highly recommend this to all of you. You have my personal guarantee that it will make a difference. The website they put together is very informative.

Cheers,

Andy Ramirez
IT Manager

A nice advertisement pitch.

Re: New Protein that is excellent for golfers...

That's the problem though. I'm really trying to be honest. I'm not trying to advertise, but how much BS would it have sounded like if later on you found out I happen to work for the company. I just like golf a lot and thought I'd share. Since I started playing 6 months ago I've played two full games every weekend and gone to the range at least 3 times a week. You cause a lot of problems to your body doing that when before that you never did any exercise.

Re: New Protein that is excellent for golfers...

Don't get me wrong, I believe you are honest in your approach. Hell, I'm 27 and my job requires me to be at a chair and desk all the time and that's really bad for my posture.

I get neck and back problems from time to time. It really makes it tough for me to lift weights, play tennis, and golf. Sh-ite! I may need a few samples of your product.

Re: New Protein that is excellent for golfers...

Similar to you Andy, I started playing golf a year ago, after many years doing nothing physical. After a short while I got pains in my knees and hands, and my fingers would swell-up after a round.
About the same time I started eating porridge for breakfast and reading Golf Monthly. Surprisingly, all my symptoms disappeared over the next few weeks and the more I played the better I hit the ball.
I mentioned the amazing healing properties of porridge and Golf Monthly to my osteopath who was rather dismissive. He thought that my symptoms were just the effects of using parts of my body that had not been used for a long time, and as I played more, I became fitter.
I’m not so sure.
I see a lot of golfers playing symptom free and notice that they read Golfing Monthly in the clubhouse.
I’m really pleased it works for you Andy, but I don’t understand whey!

Re: New Protein that is excellent for golfers...

This sounds good but I have a better one, Instead of the protein from cows milk I just drink mama's milk and my joints have never been better. I am driving the ball 300 yards against the wind up a hill and feel 20 years younger.

Re: New Protein that is excellent for golfers...

well hey, dismiss it as snake oil if you like, that's your right. But I feel better for having done my best to share something honestly with you guys. Hey on another note my best friend hit an Eagle this weekend. Par 4 he was about 160 out on a slight uphill in the short rough. Hit a perfect shot right on to the bank that rolled in for the Eagle. I think at this early stage in my golfing career that's as close as I'm going to get to hittin gone myself. Just wanted to share again.

Hi Andy,
I can’t resist pulling people’s legs – see Just say no – C111Smith.
Seriously, thank you for sharing the information; I hope it helps some people.
Regards.

Talking Re: New Protein that is excellent for golfers...

Just having some fun with it. Sorry if you took it personal. I am 50 and recovering from cancer, I am trying to get back in to shape physically after losing 25 pounds from surgery. I work with weights and the coach swing trainer and fitness machine. It seems to be helping me get my power back but I don't anticipate hitting any greens in two on a par five. If the protein drink helps you that is great. I haven't had much trouble with my joints, I do stretching exercises and that keeps me limber. Keep plugging away and you will get that eagle, if not on a par five maybe on a par four or three.

Re: New Protein that is excellent for golfers...

Hey guys. Some good humored ribbing is fine by me. I'm not too uptight. Thanks though. And hey seriously it's great for anybody recovering from surgery and needing to build muscle from all the atrophy. We have a lot of data to back that up. Not just joint stuff.

Cheers,

andy

Probably waiting for you in Mexico, just need to pack it in the "mule" to get it across the border.
