Golf Tips

If you are like me - and I suspect you are because you are here reading this blog in order to find a golf lesson - your golf game leaves a lot to be desired. The most difficult thing for me has been finding a consistent swing that is mechanically correct. I would hit a nice 250 yard drive on one hole and then go for about 100 yards on the next. Following is a basic golf lesson I found that help improve my golf swing.

1) Exercise. Like all games, golf involves the use of muscles. Exercise helps train your muscles to respond consistently time after time. If you have ever trained using free weights you understand what I mean. The first time you try a bench press your arms are wobbly and it is somewhat difficult to hold the bar motionless. Over time your supporting muscles become used to the motion and you can easily control the bar. The same holds true for your golf swing. If you exercise and target the appropriate muscles you will be able to get consistent results every time you swing.

2) Warm up. This is something that beginners often take for granted. Your body performs better if it is warm. There is nothing more frustrating than using the first half of your round of golf to warm up before you get consistent results from your body. Arrive a few minutes early to allow time to stretch and get loose. Take a few practice drives to get your body ready for what is to come.

3) Don't swing too hard. This is one I am guilty of...especially off the tee. The temptation is great to swing as hard as you can and crush the ball. However, if you haven't yet learned to control your swing you will most likely end up will less than desirable results. Give yourself time to learn to control your swing. Take easy, relaxed swings to get the motion down. I watched a tip on the golf channel the other day that said Payne Stewart used to warm up with his driver by taking slow, fluid swings with the goal of driving - yes driving - the ball no more than 150 yards. He felt this allowed him to get a better feel for and control over his swing.

Through all of this you need to realize that no two bodies are created the same. Your buddy's golf tips may not work for you because of differences in range of motion and flexibility. What will help you most is to understand the factors that affect the golf ball. One of the best resources I have found for this is called "How to Break 80". I have posted a book review for "How to Break 80" on my blog at http://golf-tips-1.blogspot.com.

I hope this golf lesson helps you become a better player. Learn the proper golf swing and keep practicing and you should be well on your way to becoming a better player.
