A Short gardening tools Summary
Momentus Swing Trainer Iron RH 40 oz w/ Standard Grip & DVD


Momentus Swing Trainer Men's 40 oz Iron

Right-Handed Standard Grip w/ Instructional DVD

Manufacturer: Momentus Golf
Model #: 40 oz Golf Trainer Iron
Condition: Brand New
List Price: $79.99

The MOMENTUS is a revolutionary new swing trainer that incorporates a patented technology, whereby the clubshaft embodies most of the weight which is evenly distributed throughout the length of the shaft. The reason this is so beneficial in a practice club is because as a golfer swings the MOMENTUS, the evenly weighted shaft generates momentum. The momentum causes the club to swing along a balanced and proper swing plane. Through repetitions with the MOMENTUS, a golfer ingrains the feel for swinging the club on-plane. This leads to a drastic improvement in consistency and clubhead speed.

The momentum of the shaft swings the club, so a golfer's muscles are stretched by swinging the trainer. Additional flexibility and strength are benefits also gained from swinging the MOMENTUS. It is an excellent club to use for warming up prior to playing a round of golf.

NOTE: The Instructional DVD will come from either Todd Hamilton or Fred Funk. The DVD's are exactly the same, they just have different players in them.

The momentum of the evenly weighted shaft swings the 7-iron lofted club along the correct swing plane as the added weight ingrains the proper feel. The elusive feel for swinging the club "in the slot" is easily maintained with regular use. Improved consistency, flexibility and clubhead speed can be expected. These Revoluntionary Momentus Swing Trainers are used by more than 100 players on the PGA TOUR.

Nursery Lesson # 18923 Of Mice and Gardens



It's true: Nibbling field mice do more damage to young trees than deer and rabbits combined. Yes, combined! It's true: Mice inhabit just about every single structure that surrounds us. Mice live in practically everybody's house, most definitely including yours! We just don't realize it.


The little house mouse eats only 3 grams per day, like a hundredth, 1/100, of a pound total. It requires even less water. Any real estate agent will tell you how commonly sellers of houses who dearly loved their homes, kept 'em spotlessly clean, kept 'em perfectly maintained, and honestly told the buyers there were, of course, no mice at all, when large heavy pieces of furniture are moved from the corners of dead-end rooms, especially rarely used storage areas, often in the basement, mouse droppings, even dead mice, are found. This can be considered "not fun with not-endangered species." But it's true. It happens all the time.


Black rats, also known as roof rats, are incredible when it comes to being vertically adept. As the moniker "roof rat" implies, these guys are well known for inhabiting the insides of roofs, but even moreso, the uppermost floors of skyscrapers. No foolin' around here, the fleas on the fur of black rats were responsible for the spread of the Black Plagues, the Bubonic Plagues in Europe. Forget for the moment what's in the saliva of the rats. The Black Death first struck in 1347-1352, and has reoccurred occasionally every century since. There was a notable pandemic in 1855 affecting India and China. Today, rats with infected fleas are found throughout the entire United States. Wanna have one climb on you while you're sleeping? Do ya, huh?


The point of the information presented above is that we all must accept how mice live with us; always have, probably always will, and they're not at all welcome. They obviously come in to houses through open doors and unscreened windows, but any little gap in the foundation, floors and exterior walls, etc. is "Mouse Highway 101."


There are good reasons why we at Highland Hill Farm advocate the use of baits and poisons for mice and rats. We don't take the matter of killing lightly.


It's true: There are proven examples of Black Rats and moreso, the larger, meaner, Norway Rats, the other main specie of "rodentus rattus," that come up through septic field discharge pipes and sewage pipes, swimming through the waste water in the "P-trap," and then through the water in toilet bowls to leap out and into bathrooms. Yikes.


These little rodents are "commensual," as biological scientists describe them. Therefore, we all have to give in and do battle. When the weather turns noticeably frigid in winter, the mice and rats seek warmth as well as food, and that means they seek the "inside." Having housecats does help keep 'em away, or remove the successful intruders. There are some repellents, natural/organic, chemical, or ultra-frequency sonic soundwave generators, that will help. But nothing is 100% effective. Sorry. Nothing.


So, we "murder" the mice and rats that get inside our homes, or ravage the precious trees and crops we work so hard to plant and nurture outside. Just be sure you don't commit negligent "animalcide," or, "animalslaughter" in the second degree. Seriously, placing traps and baits outdoors has be so much more selectively designed, ya gotta think about it's consequences so much more carefully, than placement in a storage room in your house.


It can be a felony to kill endangered species. Wouldn't that be a fun way to get yourself into prison? "Hi, I beat up and robbed four different people, what are you in for?" Then, you'll be able to answer, "Oh, well, I um, accidentally poisoned an endangered species animal."


Be sure that you kill the right critters. Then, in Pennsylvania, enjoy watching the Small-footed Myotis Bat, a superb insect eater, or the fuzzy feathered Least Shrew, or the magnificent Horn-Rimmed Owl, for instance. Have fun, knowing the members of such endangered species you are watching are not further endangered by you.

Gardening Supply

Tue, 05 Aug 2008 03:27:27 -0700
For some novice gardeners, gardening supply might simply be a few hand tools, a few pots, some soil and fertilizer. Some novice gardeners might be intimidated even by those few items. They may wonder around in a garden store, wondering what all the strange looking items do, and how they can be helpful (or not) for one specific garden. For many gardeners, however, the thought of a new gardening supply catalogue, or being left in a gardening supply store with some disposable income, is almost li

Must Have Gardening Tools No Gardener Should Be Without

Sat, 02 Aug 2008 06:09:23 -0700
What good would a green thumb do you if you do not have some of the very essential gardening tools to make your job go a lot smoother? Here are some basics that every good gardener should have beginning with the novice all the way up to the “professional” gardener. Gloves – You should have a good pair of waterproof gloves that fit well. You should also find some that have long cuffs.
