Game Sports fishing Kenya- marlin, sail & sword fish, trevally sport fishing

January 21, 2011
By

The warm blue waters of the Indian Ocean pay host to a huge variety of species, a cast list that features pretty much of all of the world’s major species of big game fish. Best of all, so far as visiting anglers are concerned, Kenya has a strong game fishing tradition, a tradition which is reflected in the large numbers of top quality boats and their thoroughly professional crews that you’ll find based at strategic locations along Kenya’s coast.

Big game Sport Fishing seasons in Kenya

Many locals argue that in reality there is a 12 month fishing season in Kenya, though from a practical point of view April and May fall within the main rainy season on the coast, and not surprisingly fishing activity during this short period is at a minimum. June and July see a gradual increase in activity offshore but for many, skippers and anglers alike, August marks the start of the fishing season proper.

From September through until Christmas the fishing is invariably excellent, while many regard January through until middle of March as being ‘high season’, as this is the period when fishing for the king of salt water game fish, the marlin, traditionally hits its zenith.

Kenya sport fishing centers and locations

There are three major angling centers found along the Kenyan coast including Malindi and Watamu, two and two and a half hours drive north of Mombasa respectively, and a couple of hours drive south at Shimoni near the Tanzanian border. Good quality angling boats are also located at Mtwapa and Kilifi Creeks and also on Lamu Island.

Big game fishing boats and prices in Kenya

Wherever you decide to fish, it is important you select a reputable charter operation, Kenya has many. Avoid the temptation of paying less to fish aboard boats of unknown pedigree. Yes it will cost more to fish aboard a top boat, prices range from (at the time of publishing) US$ 669- US$ 1,051. Per boat for up to four anglers fishing a full day and are generally dependent on season, but at least you will know your boat has a full inventory of safety equipment and that the skipper and the crew are sufficiently experienced.

Also, you’ll stand a far better chance of hooking the fish of your dreams if you fish with an experienced crew who know what they are doing!

What you need to carry for sports fishing tours

Reputable angling operations provide all the necessary angling equipment and soft drinks within the price, occasionally lunch; all you need to provide are high factor sun cream, sun glasses and a hat.

Weight Training For Golfers Is The Missing Link To A Great Game

October 8, 2010

Weight training for golfers may sound exhausting to you and even an oxymoron, but I can tell you it’s not a secret anymore. Weight training for golfers is a must if you want to achieve your highest level of golf performance.

You don’t need to fear it! Embrace it and realize you will not only play your best golf…you will feel better than you have in years! I receive dozens of emails everyday from golfers who were skeptical, but gave it a shot and their results are amazing!

Worst case scenario for some of them is better health. The time you spend working on your golf swing technique is critical to your success. Some of these golfers embarked on one of my weight training for golfers programs and didn’t put any time on the range.

The result for just a small percent of them was more energy, less aches and pains, and a dramatic drop in bodyweight. Needless to say they were still more than thrilled they did it.

But for the majority of these golfers I hear from have results that have evened amazed me. Increases of up to 50 yards on their drives! Slashing their handicaps by up to 8 strokes! And even winning their Club Championships!

These are very exciting emails to receive…and it’s proof that weight training for golfers DOES work! I can say with every fiber in my body, that if you improve your body’s ability to move from both a strength and flexibility standpoint, it is virtually impossible to not see improvement in your golf swing and game.

Don’t you think if you could make just a little bigger backswing you would hit it further? Or, if your lower back muscles were a tad bit stronger, you wouldn’t walk off the course with an aching back? I know you’ll agree with me.

Weight training for golfers is not going into a gym and plopping down on a machine. This does nothing for your golf game! Golf is played “on your feet”, and in a very dynamic position (golf posture), that requires a unique set of muscular strength, endurance and flexibility.

The right program is one that involves balance and coordination exercises, along with sequence of motion movements with resistance. This resistance can be as simple as exercise tubing, hand weights, or even weighted medicine balls.

Just take a look at the demands the golf swing puts on your body and you’ll soon realize your weight training for golfers program needs to be dynamic. One that incorporates movements similar to your golf swing in both body positions and movement patterns.

Seek out a qualified golf trainer who has a proven track record with golfers. One of the most affordable ways is to search for golf fitness, golf training or even golf exercises.

Remember if you use google, which is maybe how you found this article, the first few colored results at the very top are “paid advertisements”. The ones with the white background are the organic or real search results.

There are many choices out there. Just do your research and you’ll be on your way to starting your weight training for golfers program.

Cook and Rain Forge Decent Partnership for Saving the Game

July 16, 2010
By

England may yet escape defeat in the third Test although, having been outplayed, they will find nothing satisfactory in doing so as a result of the weather rather than their own efforts. It is mum’s spurious sick note to get off games. The England batsmen were going along tidily enough in any case, already nurturing hopes of making Sri Lanka work hard for their wickets when the first swath of rain arrived shortly before lunch.

Mopping-up procedures were in progress when the next lot arrived, however, with such an intensity that it beat a tattoo on the pavilion roof as if the ghost of John Bonham had descended and across the ground the Dutch fort, sodden flags hanging droopily, was all but obscured. Further play was never an option and, weather permitting, the players returned for the finale early this morning although, as the forecast is for much of the same, the chances of completion must be slim.

In fact England had made a considerably better fist of it second time around, after the mesmeric manner in which wickets tumbled in their first innings. Michael Vaughan and Alastair Cook added 67 for the first wicket before the England captain was seduced into chasing a wide ball from the lithe left-armer Chanaka Welegedara and edging to second slip. He left the field, for the last time on this tour, scratching his head with looking quizzical. He would make an excellent Stan Laurel.

After batting with such panache in Colombo, where he made 87 and 61 yet was not able to capitalize, Vaughan has had a chastening experience here: in cricket rosebuds have to be gathered while ye may.

A first-innings misjudgment may have been on his mind, as the young bowler zipped a ball into his pads for a very close lbw shout, then slanted another across him past the outside edge. A third ball, wider, did for him. Although batsmen are loth to admit it, they are sometimes outwitted.

Cook sailed past a half-century for the 15th time and third in this series, hitting seven boundaries on the way to an unbeaten 53, largely through standing tall and, off the back foot, right elbow high, biffing anything slightly short through extra cover. He will have been eyeing a seventh Test century, though he has confessed to some myopia against Murali.

There is still the opportunity for Ian Bell, too, to play an innings of substance in the composed, unruffled manner displayed by Sri Lanka’s captain, Mahela Jayawardene, first in Colombo and then here in Galle. Bell was unbeaten on 17 when the players left the field and the vast covers were heaved into place by the army of ground staff, and against pace, swing and spin he looked comfortable.

At 102 for one England need only 31 for the team’s match aggregate to exceed Jayawardene’s individual 213 and so leave Inzamam-ul-Haq as the only batsman to finish a match having scored, in Lahore in 2002, more from his own bat in a single innings( 329) than the opposition New Zealand (73 and 246) managed from two completed innings combined. Total ignominy will thus be avoided.

England needed a firm response to the first innings to salvage credibility. Thursday’s contained a comedic element and, if there was any comfort to be taken, it is that such aberrational things do happen, if a little too often to England sides.

Australia have lost matches to Bangladesh and Zimbabwe in the recent past. It pays to have a sense of humor. Once, though, is sufficient. It is not often that a side humiliated in its first innings collapses in quite the same manner second time around, having followed on.

If England want an extreme example from personal experience, then Vaughan need cast his mind back only as far as his own debut series in South Africa in 1999 and recall the match in Kingsmead in which South Africa were bowled out brilliantly by Andrew Caddick for 156 but, following on, had reached 572 for seven by the time the game dribbled out.

That sort of outlandish response is out of the question here but, with the pitch playing well enough, despite offering encouragement for bowlers of all type, England should bat out a full day if necessary.

Calling All Athletes: Improve Your Game and Your Life By Getting More Sleep

June 18, 2010
By

Professional athletes usually recognize the value of a good night’s sleep and how a sleep problem can have a significant negative affect on their performance; however, even amateurs and weekend warrior types can significantly improve their games by getting regular, high quality sleep.

According to a study recently performed at the Stanford Sleep Disorders Clinic and Research Laboratory, a group of basketball players experienced less fatigue, increased concentration, and quicker reaction times. A previous study also found that individuals who got less sleep also experienced impaired glucose metabolism, which negatively affects how the body stores and processes glucose, which in turn has a detrimental effect on their energy levels.

Most people realize that plenty of practice, good training, and proper nutrition are fundamental elements of a peak performance in any sport, but many athletes neglect to consider the importance of a good night’s sleep. Even individuals who only play their chosen sport on weekends can benefit from a little extra sleep – and of course even amateurs want to turn in their best possible performance every time they step on the field, court, or course.

Getting regular sleep also offers further health benefits, such as increased creativity and reduced stress. Everyone knows that they function better when they’ve gotten a good night’s sleep the day before; moreover, regular high quality sleep can have an incredible positive effect on your overall health. On the other hand, individuals who experience sleep disorders are more likely to suffer from various health issues because of their sleep problems. Here are fifteen reasons to make proper sleep a priority in your life:

1. Reduced Stress – When you are sleep deprived, your body goes into a state of high alert – meaning that your blood pressure rises and production of stress hormones like cortisol increases. Not only does high blood pressure put you at risk for a host of health problems, more stress hormones actually make it more difficult for you to fall asleep when the time comes. Furthermore, regular sleep makes it easier to cope with life’s stressful situations

2. Weight Control – It has been proven that people who get less than seven hours of sleep each night are more likely to be overweight or obese, and that lack of sleep has a negative impact on the balance of hormones that control your appetite.

3. Alertness & Productivity – Regular sleep increases your alertness and energy levels, causing you to be more productive and engaged the next day. Furthermore, regular sleep helps to keep you safe and aware – read this post on the dangers of sleep deprivation for more information.

4. Memory Boost – Memory consolidation happens while you sleep; during the night, your body processes the previous day and makes connections between events, sensory input, feelings, and older memories. Depriving yourself of sleep can lead to memory loss and related problems.

5. Reduced Risk of Depression – The amount of sleep you get has a direct effect on your serotonin levels, and people with a serotonin deficiency are much more likely to suffer from depression. Therefore, etting at least eight hours of sleep a night can have a direct effect on your brain chemistry and mood.

6. Stronger Immune System – Being sleep deprived can literally make you sick – by weakening your immune system so that your body has a harder time fighting off viruses and infections. Regular sleep can not only help you recover faster, it can prevent you from becoming ill in the first place.

7. Improved Physical Appearance – The term “beauty sleep” has very real connotations, because while you sleep your body restores and regenerates itself, including your skin and muscle tissue. Lack of sleep speeds up the aging process, resulting in dull skin, wrinkles, and dark under-eye circles.

8. Heart Health – Sleep deprivation has been linked to an increase in blood pressure and cholesterol, which are major risk factors for heart disease and strokes (among other things).

9. Diabetes Prevention – People, even otherwise fit and healthy individuals, have developed insulin resistance (a symptom linked to the onset of Type 2 diabetes) after being deprived of the deepest stage of sleep for only a few nights – an effect comparable to gaining twenty or thirty pounds. It goes to follow that regular sleep can help prevent diabetes.

10. Brain Power- Regular sleep allows your brain to process information more quickly and completely; your mind can comprehend new concepts more quickly and you will be more intellectually acute overall with plenty of rest. Learning new skills will also be easier, as your concentration is improved.

11. Increased Coordination – If you participate in any sports or other activities that require coordination and physical fitness, a good night’s sleep will ensure you are at the peak of your abilities. Your ability to work out and build muscle and endurance is also enhanced with consistent rest.

12.Overall Safety – People who get regular sleep are significantly less likely to engage in risky behaviors and substance abuse, as well as to use potentially harmful prescription drugs and other chemical sleep aids.

13. Better Moods – Lack of sleep tends to result in crankiness and a general negative and pessimistic mood; sleep deprived people can be unpleasant to be around and anti-social; on the other hand, more healthy sleep can lead to more positive interaction with others and increased happiness.

14. Heightened Creativity – Many artists and other creative types have come up with their best ideas and insights during their dreams or immediately after waking up from a deep sleep. Moreover, studies have suggested that sleep is key to creative problem solving – and the phrase “why don’t you sleep on it?” has become a popular adage for a good reason.

15. Longevity – Studies have shown that individuals who get a full night’s sleep (between seven to nine hours) on a regular basis tend to live longer lives – probably due to all the health benefits listed previously.

Adolescent Obesity – The Blame Game

May 13, 2010

The prevalence of weight issues among the tweenage generation has prompted debates between schools, parents, food giants and kids. The blame game is often played while our youth continue to tip the scales. This hot topic of Adolescent Obesity is the subject for the current episode of Teen Talk, an online video commentary feature hosted by former Nickelodeon hostess Chloe Dolandis. Teen Talk is a subsidiary of Kidfluence, an up-and-coming television show and Web site for today’s youth, tackling topics critical to the development of today’s teenagers.

Obesity used to be looked at as only an adult issue, but with the rising statistics of overweight kids, this is a far greater problem than imagined. The fact that more kids today are having radical gastric bypass surgery only reinforces the necessity to explore this issue. Schools often serve as the scapegoat because of their documented unhealthy offering of food choices. Yet parents can set bad examples themselves by indulging in junk food and failing to closely monitor their child’s eating habits. At such impressionable years such as the tweenage ones, the responsibility for maintaining healthy lifestyles for our kids is a collaborative effort.

In this current Teen Talk episode, Chloe presents the facts about adolescent obesity, analyzes what parents, schools and kids should be doing and offers a few tips. Teen Talk, which caters to today’s technology savvy teenagers, is meant to be highly interactive. Viewers are encouraged to send e-mail and comments on the blog.

Teen Talk is now airing on the Internet via the web sites Kidfluence.tv, YouTube, Google Video, Yahoo Video and myspace.

Real Golf Stores Are Passionate About The Game – Are You?

March 5, 2010

A precision sport, golf is a game in which players (called “golfers”) struggle to surmount, by following strict rules, another or multipliers players, by using many types of clubs. Each player, individually or as part of a team, attempts to “sink” balls into a small hole, not much larger than the playing ball itselt. Located on a so-called “golf course”, the challenge is to require the lowest number of strokes from the starting point, appropriately called the “tee”. It should be mentioned here that golf is a game that does not require a standard playing area. Rather, golf is played on a “course”, which is totally different from all other courses. Although each course is comprised by a bluepriint all its own, approved course have either nine or eighteen playing holes.

By the strictest definition of the rules of golf, it is “playing a ball with a club from the teeing ground into the hole by a stroke or successive strokes in accordance with the rules.” Played both for recreation and in competition, the point of the game is that it assumes the winner to be the one requiring the minimum of strokes to progress the entire course. This is known, simply, as stroke play, or the lowest score of individual holes during a complete round by an individual or team. This is also known when applied to the entire game, by definition, as match play.

With the sudden splurge of interest in golf brought about be tournaments being available on television, there has become an increasing market for high-end retail establishment specializing in golf equipment and clubs, it is very possible to not find a genuine golf store. Normally, good golf stores may offer the latest, and generally the very, best equipment, clubs and accessories required for superior players of golf. There products might fluctuate within certain a range of balls, posters, shirts and wallpaper for the dyed-in-the-wool players to no limit of paraphernalia

Generally, real golf stores concentrate on proper and tested supplies and equipment for real golfers. Further, real golf stores will have hints and tips for choosing the proper club and excellent golf balls for better play. A store that offers products not directly related to golf and, perhaps, have products and services in other fields, may not be classified a “real” golf store.

In a real golf store, you might find additional services, including club repair and fitting. Some stores may even provide technical swing analysis. Many more “savvy” golf stores provide the True Temper Shaftlab(c) and Achiever Launch Monitor(c) analysis or your swing. These highly sophisticated devices measure all parts of your swing, all the way from ball speed, club head speed to even carry distance. Often, they may also include printouts of extreme deflection, shaft loading, downswing traffic and much more.

Perhaps of interest to the passionate golfer, other “real” golf stores may have golf classes with local pros as teachers. Tutorials may be suggested to juniors and clinics for the fairer sex on the sport of golfing. Collectors of golf paraphernalia could find items of interest in a golf store. Golf collectors will find many interesting items in a golf store as well. The hobbyist that finds golf very interesting might find a collector item such as golf balls that have been used by a great and renowned golfer. Autographed items such as programs, score cards, shirts, etc., may be obtainable. In additions, some golf stores may have unusual gifts for the passionate golfer. Ranging from the exotic to the mundane, the giver could possible find just what he or she is seeking for that special someone.

And, most importantly, “real” golf stores are usually owned and operated by highly motivated golfers in their own right. As a matter of course, these motivated persons decide to go into owning and running a golf store after a lifetime of playing golf, either privately or professionally. As the creed of most businessmen is, “It’s good to be passionate about what you are selling.” Passion of this quality may help the golf shopper to feel satisfaction and gratification, a feeling that has no monetary value but is invaluable at any level.
