July 27, 2010 by Parshooters · 13 Comments
The worst feeling in the world is when your playing your best golf ever, and you come to one of the easiest holes on the golf course. With the opportunity to improve your golf score even better than what you have up until now. So, you reach back with everything you can muster in strength, and you knock the golf ball out of bounds with a terrible hook or slice. What happened? Your upset and frustrated after this hit, and your ready to let loose on anyone who opens their mouth. The only problem, it was your own damn fault. You went for that extra distance by over-swinging, and it cost you most likely of breaking your best golf score ever.
It really is sad to see someone go from being happy go-lucky on the first tee to total frustration by the 18′th tee. The game of golf becomes an instrument of torture instead of one of pleasure. Slicing your shots can cause a lot of embarrassment and frustration. If your a consistent slicer, does that frustrate you at all? Doesn’t that stimulate you to put forth a greater effort to figure out how to cure your slice? The whole idea of doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results that only gets worse. You know what they call that don’t you. Insanity. It becomes a major swing problem that does effect the majority of golfers at some point. Yet it’s something that can be fixed fairly easily. Don’t let your slice bring you down with frustration. Learn how to improve golf swing, and eliminate the unwanted hooks and slices.
I’m going to talk about how to improve golf swing by correcting the slicing problem in this post, because I still have tendencies to do this during an average golf round. I haven’t been able to draw or hook the golf ball on a consistent basis for a very long time now. The reason I can’t play a draw, is because I have a broken left wrist that never healed properly. When finishing with your follow through you need to feel your wrists rolling to the left. I don’t have that mobility. I have more of a trained cut-fade shot today which is good, because I can count on this consistently bringing the golf ball from left to right-middle of the fairway. Jack Nicklaus, played with a cut-fade shot, and it didn’t hurt him with regards to accuracy and distance.

Most experienced golfers can handle playing with someone who is just learning to play. Who has lower than average skills provided the new golfer possess adequate golf course etiquette and plays at a reasonable pace. Bad etiquette, however, is virtually guaranteed to prevent a future invitation to be part of the same group. Here are a few basic rules of golf course etiquette that will be useful for anyone just starting out and a good reminder for the more experienced golfers.
Even before going to the golf course, there are a few things you need to do:
Try going to a driving range before playing a round. Unless you are incredibly athletic and can pick up a golf club and start hitting 200 yard drives, you might want to go to a driving range to practice your golf swing mechanics. Take along a friend who knows how to golf, and can show you the basics of the stance, grip and swing. Review each golf club and know your own yardages for each club.

Golf Tips On Chipping!

Chipping may not be the most glamorous part of the golf game, but the short game is so important. It’s the key component to shooting lower scores. It’s amazing how a good chip shot can quickly turn a possible disaster into a respectable hole. Chipping close to the hole and tapping in a putt can also maintain a positive attitude towards your round and keep you in a good frame of mind for the next hole.
My golf tips to chipping is keep it as simple as possible. Find one good club that you can believe in every time you use it. Confidence is as important as technique when approaching a golf shot, especially when it comes to the short game. I personally prefer the bump and run shot, and will use my putter off the green as often as I can. (Texas Wedge.) The room for error is diminished greatly, because there is no air time. It’s the easiest club to control. You need to know your stroke and distance to the hole when making this golf shot. There are other various situations on the golf course that you need to know when it comes to the short game. When practicing focus on different shot making skills that you will encounter on the golf course Such as, chipping, flopping, knockdown, lobbing, pitching, punch, putting, sand, trouble and utility shots.
Chipping covers the shots you will play where the ball carries no more than about 10-15 yards around the green. It is a shot that has a short amount of air time and spends most of the time on the ground running towards the golf hole. According to U.S.G.A. statistics, 80 percent of the strokes golfers lose to par are determined by their play within 100 yards of the green. So, why is it the least amount of time practicing, not devoted to improving around the green?
