This apparently has something to do with the ongoing Augusta Masters where as we all know is the comeback tourney of the disgruntled Tiger Woods. And whether you consider it a marketing ploy or not, Sleep Apnea Therapy can reportedly help increase golf scores.

Of course it does make sense. Sleeping well and being able to carry full concentration and strength can help a lot for you golf game.

Doctors at the Morristown Memorial Hospital in New Jersey found treating sleep apnea in 12 golfers actually improved their game by up to three strokes off their handicap in 20 rounds of golf when they underwent the sleep apnea therapy, according to a presentation today at the annual meeting of the American College of Chest Physicians.

So now it can be told! That is if you are ignorant in acknowledging that sleep is needed to power up your golf game or any sport for that matter. But for the topic at hand, golf seems to be the immediate and proven beneficiary, especially for golfers who are suffering from sleep apnea. Apparently people who are not at all fond of using CPAP masks may now want to change their reception of this sleep masks to remedy the dreaded sleep apnea syndrome.

Sleep apnea treatment improved golfers’ handicap ratings by more than one stroke on average, according to research presented at the annual conference of the American College of Chest Physicians. After 20 rounds of golf, the group treated with a form of nightly nasal ventilation saw their handicap drop from 12.4 strokes to 11 strokes. Interestingly, the best golfers in the group improved their scores the most.

Now this product, the Pledge Fabric Sweeper, may be directed towards home with pets but it is bound to be a great product to use when you want to make sure that no dust or mites are existent on your bed or pillow cases. The Pledge Fabric Sweeper is a multi-use disposable hand-held sweeper that uses velourcovered rollers to lift and trap pet hair from pillows, bedspreads, car interiors, chairs, sofas and other fabric-covered surfaces.

Using moderate pressure, slide the fabric sweeper side to side in short strokes of about eight to 12 inches in each direction across upholstered furniture using moderate pressure. Sweeper is self-cleaning; as you move in one direction, one roller picks up pet hair from the fabric surface. When you move in the other direction, the second roller cleans off the first and pushes the hair inside. If pet hair builds up on the rollers, repeat the side-to-side motion a few times on a clean area of the upholstery.

Sweeper is full when it picks up no more hair – that’s when you can throw it away. Lasts for three to five weeks, depending on the amount of hair cleaned up and frequency of use. Works on woven fabrics, microfiber and suede (not for use on vinyl, leather or on wet surfaces). Pull loosened upholstery tightly for more effective pickup.

Price: $4.99
