Designs of golf courses can be found to have many different variations. They can be wide open for most beginners to championship level layouts with tight fairways, elevation changes, forced water carries and treacherous bunkering around the greens. Of course the more challenging a golf course is designed, the more it will require of your shot making skills. A unique perspective to the game of golf is that there is always a different strategy for every golfer on any given hole.
One of the major elements that golf course architects use to make the game more interesting , challenging or difficult, is to create uneven surfaces in the fairways and adjacent areas. Think back on your own last few rounds, and try to count how many times you were required to play a shot from an uneven lie. It could have been either uphill, downhill or sidehill. If you have been playing some of the tougher courses in your local area, the answer probably is way too many to count. Each type of lie will produce a different ball flight, and it will require alterations to your address position and golf swing.
My biggest weakness to my own golf game has always been trying to hit the mid to long iron shots. I don’t feel comfortable enough like I do in hitting fairway woods. I tend to find when I’m playing with others in my group, that I’m always using one to two clubs more with my iron play.

Invoke Rule 33-8a. Play Local Rules To Avoid Playing Out of Leaves.
Fall is one of the best times of the year to play golf. The summer heat is only a distant memory, and now your able to be outside breathing in the freshly minted air of a perfect autumn morning. Life is good, being out on the golf course. Taking in all of natures vibrant colors of golden reds, yellows, greens and browns. Perfect time to take landscape pictures. While the beautiful fall foliage is something that many people look forward to, golfers look upon the turning colors with absolute discontent.
It means the current golf season is coming to a fast close. It also means colder air is now arriving that causes leaves on the trees to drop to the ground. It makes golfing much harder, because it slows the golf round down to a miserable crawl. It now takes your entire foursome to look for your golf ball hidden under leaves in the fairway and rough. Among friends, agreeing to play the leaf rule does make sense. In order to avoid its abuse the question needs to be asked, “Is it under leaves or is it plugged?”
The official U.S.G.A. Rules of Golf makes no mention of any special allowance for golf balls lost in fallen leaves. In fact Rule 3-4, states “Refusal to Comply With the Rules,” affecting another competitor leads to automatic disqualification. Under Rule 33-8a of “Local Rules,” it does establish that a governing committee of that golf course, can modify the U.S.G.A. rules for playing in abnormal conditions.

Within the next month, spring will be finally here in the Northeast. There are clear signs that the days are getting longer and the temperatures outside is definitely improving. So what have you done to get ready for the up coming golf season?
Have you joined a gym to work out or have you been doing your daily exercises and stretches on your own to get in shape when winter does finally break? I know doing exercises isn’t the easiest thing to do, because it does take time or you have to spend money in order to receive the appropriate training such as coaching. I’m guilty of it and there are areas that I need to improve upon. However, to prevent injuries and improve upon performance this still needs to be done before playing in your first few early rounds of the new golf season.
The search for the proper way to swing a golf club is something of a science. It’s all about physics in regards to coiling rather than swaying, striking the golf ball with the club face at the correct angle, getting that wrist roll just right to finish with the follow through. The proper way to swing a golf club is also about biology and kinesiology.
