Golf Show"},"content":{"rendered":"\"WMG\"<\/a>\n

The 27th West Michigan Golf Show in Grand Rapids opens this weekend, a week prior to another notable entertainment event, the Oscars telecast on February 22. Hey, golfers love movies so why not throw down a red carpet and walk around DeVos Place with this year\u2019s Oscar nominees in mind? The envelope, please for:<\/p>\n

Gone Girl<\/strong>\u2014This will happen after she learns about Friday\u2019s Ladies Night when the first 500 women receive a goodie bag.<\/p>\n

Into the Woods<\/strong>\u2014Direction some of the free golf balls, handed out to the first 100 attendees each day, will take this coming season.<\/p>\n

Birdman<\/strong>\u2014A nickname for headliner Brian Manzella, a Golf Digest Top 50 Teacher, whose lowest score is a 59 on a par-68 course and a 63 on a par-70.<\/p>\n

The Theory of Everything<\/strong>\u2014Headliner Kathy G-Jensen, the current National PGA Teacher of the Year, will be sharing her swing thoughts and lessons on the seminar stage.<\/p>\n

Boyhood<\/strong>\u2014Along with the sequel Girlhood<\/em>, this means checking out all the fun stuff for juniors at the Show including the PGA Family Fun Zone, Putt-Putt golf, and loads of information on junior golf events.<\/p>\n

The Imitation Game<\/strong>\u2014Means the Gun Lake Casino $10,000 Longest Putt Challenge where one lucky putter may win some big bucks.<\/p>\n

Wild<\/strong>\u2014Some of the swings PGA pros from Boyne Resorts and the Michigan PGA will try to tame at the free golf lessons area.<\/p>\n

Whiplash<\/strong>\u2014See above.<\/p>\n

Grand Budapest Hotel<\/strong>\u2014Actually, this exotic hotel is not exhibiting at the Show but the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island is! In fact, all of Michigan\u2019s top northern resorts will be there.<\/p>\n

Unbroken<\/strong>\u2014That\u2019s the current condition of the \u201cdemo clubs\u201d from top equipment manufactures that patrons may try out at the hitting net.<\/p>\n

Citizenfour<\/strong>\u2014Another way of saying \u201cfoursome\u201d which will be given away as door prizes by several generous exhibitors.<\/p>\n

American Sniper<\/strong>\u2014An apt description about your neighbor who says he can\u2019t attend the Golf Show because he\u2019s playing in the Pebble Beach Pro-Am.<\/p>\n
