0:00.0	As we enter the winter season, we're proud to have the indoor golf shop as a sponsor of the sweet spot.
0:06.1	I've been trusting them for years and recommending them to anyone who wants to improve their home setup.
0:11.4	They even built mine.
0:12.7	The indoor golf shop has all the top launch monitor brands like SkyTrack, Unicor, Forsite, Trackman,
0:18.8	and even newer releases like the Garmin R50. They also have options that
0:23.4	will fit any budget. Also, they have everything for your indoor practice, like hitting mats,
0:28.7	golf nets, impact screens, and custom enclosures. Whether you want to build your dream simulator
0:33.8	set up by yourself or have their team custom build something for you, their team can help
0:39.2	you make the right decision. To learn more, visit their website, shop indoor golf.com. You can use their
0:45.7	online tool to help build your own simulator setup and check out their array of products. Also,

1:11.8	game. They stay looking sharp, and they don't lose their shape, while all my other collars
1:16.0	from my other shirts go out of shape after a couple of washes. The material's stretchy, and they have a
1:21.1	great non-boxy fit that I love, and while I tend to stick to the classic colors, they have some fun
1:27.3	and creative designs, if that's your thing.
1:29.5	Their quarter zips are super soft and perfect for the morning or late afternoon round,
1:34.0	and their hoodies are super soft and have a great stretch, so you can still swing a golf club comfortably.
1:39.4	John and I are huge fans, so make sure to get yourself some amazing golf clothing and support our sponsors.
1:45.3	Head to rowback.com, spelled r-h-o-b-a-c-k-com, to get 20% off.
