For ALL Golfers! Putting To WIN

How many times have you seen these ?

“Buy our product and boom your drives 30 yards further”

“Never miss a fairway or green with these anti-wayward clubs”

“Knock 10 shots off your next round………the easy way”

“Develop a perfect swing in ten minutes…..”

If it were that easy we would all be playing Tiger Woods every Sunday afternoon.

It’s not that easy and we all know it’s not, but golf is the most fantastic game on earth.

A while ago I played directly behind one of the most competitive games I’ve ever seen, father, son and grandson playing a skins match, ages ranging from about 15 to 60, I’ve no idea what their handicaps were but I don’t know any other game where a boy and his grandfather can play against each other so competitively. Each accepted the other’s handicap as a reflection of their ability and the competition was fierce.

After my game the three ball was in the clubhouse I said to the boy, “you looked to be playing well, did you win?” The grandfather replied, “knowledge and experience usually beats youth and enthusiasm, he may out drive me by 50 yards but I just outputted him”. The boy was quick to add, “He’ll never be able to drive as far as me, but one day I’ll be just as good a putter as he is, then he’ll never beat me”.

The point of the little story is: GOLF is a game for life, a game that is competitive whatever your age or ability, because of the universally accepted handicap system.

Most golfers want to improve, but how?

Do they buy the latest driver with the expectation of effortless booming tee shots or the latest anti-wayward shot clubs?
Many golfers do, spending ever-increasing amounts of money on the latest equipment.
Have you noticed the booming driver never seems to come with the anti-wayward feature? And the anti-wayward clubs cure a slice but develop a hook or visa versa.

Many golfers look for the latest “quick fix”, to knock those precious shots off the card, only to find a few weeks later they are looking for the next quick fix.

What’s the answer?

Throwing money at anything rarely makes massive improvements, and quick fixes are usually just temporary measures.

To make significant improvements golfers need to start with the right mindset, a mindset that is focused on making long-term permanent improvement.

There are many different parts to golf, driving, iron play, pitching, chipping, bunker play, putting, to name a few and each presents it’s own challenges.

Each part of the game should be addressed individually as slightly different “rules” apply to each one.

The FIVE BASICS that must be adhered to for ALL golf shots are:

AIM, GRIP, BALL POSITION, STANCE & POSTURE.

Making systematic improvements to any or all of the “basics” in your set-up will give you far more improvement than buying the latest gizmo or quick fix.

You would not expect to have the same AIM, GRIP, BALL POSITION, STANCE & POSTURE, for a drive and a putt, each shot has it’s own set-up “rules”. When you have the knowledge to implement each set-up and shot execution your game will improve beyond recognition.

So what’s the difference?

The difference is “SELF DEVELOPMENT”, look within yourself, knowledge is power, whatever knowledge you gain is yours, how you chose to use it is also yours, once you have knowledge no one can take it from you, and very importantly knowledge gives you confidence.

Where do you start?

Once you have a “focused mindset” to make yourself a better player, you need the right source of information.

If you want to improve your scores and start winning putting is a good place to start, because undoubtedly the easiest part of golf to improve is putting.

The “rules” for good putting are very simple and straightforward, you just need to know what they are.

It’s worth taking a few minutes to have a look at the webpage (link below).

The page contains several impressive videos of a young emerging Tour Player.

There are videos of chipping, pitching, and some very impressive shots into a par 3 green in very windy conditions.

As you can guess from the webpage title the emphasis is on putting, with several putting videos, covering all aspects of improving putting.

The aim of the webpage is to promote an e-book written by the Tour Player.
Containing over 140 photographs the e-book covers everything from holing out to long putts, distance control, reading putts, uphill and downhill putts.

Take a quick look I’m sure you’ll be impressed.

If You're Serious About WINNING!

You Must Get The Ball In The Hole.

Golf Etiquette

Golf Etiquette

Golf is a dignified game of rules and manners, and it’s important to know the basics before you play for the first time.

Whether you are playing alone, in a twosome or a foursome, you must wait your turn. You must keep aware of the group on the next hole and wait until they are well ahead of you before hitting your ball.

It’s never cool to "push" the group in front of you. If you are playing with others, wait for your turn to hit the ball; never hit at the same time as another player.

While you wait for your turn, go to your ball and determine what club you’ll need and how you are going to hit it. This is called "ready golf" and keeps the game moving. Don’t rush, just be ready.

If your team is holding up the players behind you, let them play through. You would simply wave them through, or if they are close enough, ask them if they’d like to play through. You will never make an enemy in doing this!

When someone is making a shot, you should be behind them and you shouldn’t make a sound! It is so distracting to be ready to tee off and just as you pull back, someone decides to jingle in coins in their pocket or noisily unwrap a piece of candy.

Replace your divots. When, in the fairway, you hit the ball and a clod of dirt and grass goes flying, replace it. On some courses you just put the clod back and step on it to press it on; on most courses, there is a sand/seed mixture on your card to put into the divot. If your ball makes a deep impression when it lands on the green, use your divot tool to repair it.

As soon as you have completed a hole, replace the flag and leave the green so that the next players can play. Count your score and write it on the scorecard when you’re back at your cart. Of course, there are many more rules of golf, but these simple ones will enable you to get through the course without coming to blows with anyone. We must all keep the game dignified, right?

Getting the Most from Golf Lessons

It’s never easy asking for help, but in golf, it is almost a necessity. Unfortunately, we often ask our buddies and partners, when in reality we should take a lesson or two.

We think that a Pro would critique harshly, but they are honest, positive and very helpful.

Lessons at the local course aren’t as expensive as you might think and they are worth it because your game will improve rapidly and cause you less frustration, making the game much more enjoyable for you.

Of utmost importance, is being honest about your game. The Pro will ask you what you want to start with; driving, chipping, putting or whatever you feel you need help with.

Listen carefully and follow the instructions. You may have doubts if the Pro changes your stance, your grip or your swing; the Pro knows best.

Don’t hesitate to ask questions. Don’t worry about if the question or concern in stupid-they’ve heard it all before and will not make you feel like an idiot for asking. If you don’t "get it", tell him/her that you’re not getting it. You should never walk away from a lesson with unanswered questions.

You can concentrate on one thing during a lesson, or several. You might start with a lesson in driving; get the right grip, the right stance, the right swing, the right follow-through in one lesson, and then practice it. Next time, you might work on your short game, or putting.

You’ve invested in the equipment, doesn’t it make sense to learn how to use them to their advantage and improve your abilities?
