Golf Course Instruction

Wednesday, October 27th, 2010

One of the best places and times to get instruction on golf is on the actual golf course. Instead of playing with your usual group of friends, consider going to the golf course as a single and asking to be paired up with new people. It’s best to play with people who are slightly more advanced that you. By doing so, you’ll glean some invaluable tips by just watching how they hit the ball. Notice how better players set up to the ball and watch their fundamentals like stance, posture, and grip. Also, take note about the decisions that they make when going about the course. Also, don’t be embarrassed to ask a better player for tips. Most people will be glad to offer advice if you ask for it.

Golf Instruction Tips

Monday, September 20th, 2010

When you learn to play golf, there are certain things that you need to focus on. When your instructor is showing you how to grip your club, pay close attention to the way his or her fingers are placed. Proper placement can have a huge impact on the control you have over your swing. Focusing on the stance of your instructor can give you clues on how to set your own. Modeling the particulars of your instructor’s example can help you to form good habits from the beginning, which means a lower score on the course. Closely follow what you are being shown and you will improve your swing dramatically.

A Golf Instruction Book for Novices

Friday, September 10th, 2010

When the novice player is hooked, they have a voracious appetite. It’s golf 24/7. They can’t play enough, practice enough, watch enough, talk enough, and read enough. This is where the bad habits set in. There’s a lot of poor advice out there. So which is the best golf instruction book for the novice? One, avoid older books, which might be outdated. Stick to a golf instruction book published in the last several years. Two, avoid any golf instruction book that focuses solely on mechanics. The mental aspects of golf are very important, and if you can establish good concentration habits as a new player, you’ll be ahead of the game. Three, seek a guide that explains how to budget your golf time, and how to effectively leverage the time allotted to practice.

Anti-Slice Golf Instruction

Monday, August 30th, 2010

A slice for a right handed golfer is a shot that starts to the left of the target line and veers off quickly to the right. Most amateurs suffer from the slice, causing them to shoot bad scores. One of the fundamental tenets of anti-slice golf instruction is that the slice is caused by an open club face. However, with modern cameras and physics, it has been shown that this thought is flawed.

Indeed, the main cause of the slice is a closed club face, which causes the ball to start to the left initially. What imparts the slice spin is the path of the club head relative to the club face angle. In the case of a slice, the path is too out to in, which imparts the spin.

How much can individual lessons help my game?

Thursday, July 1st, 2010

Before you take the dive and start with one-on-one golf instruction, you should go over the advantages and disadvantages of this sort of approach. Can individual lessons truly make me better or am I wasting my time? Some people think that once you reach a certain level, one-on-one golf instruction is unnecessary. This is just not true, as even the best players in the world still use a swing coach.

The growth that you can make as an individual has everything to do with how much time you put into the game. Some players will just take lessons and leave it at that. Other players will leave the instruction period and practice the things they have learned. No matter what your handicap is, application of principles will bring it down a few notches.
