TIP! One of the first things you want to get down when learning golf is the proper grip for all of your clubs. New golfers often mistakenly grip the club tightly in hopes they will be able to hit the ball harder.

The art of golf is so much more than just putting a ball into a hole. Sending your ball accurately to your desired destination requires patience, focus, and strong upper body muscles. The tips presented in this article are here to help you develop these skills.

TIP! The key thing to consider when looking for a powerful swing is using both your upper and lower body to create momentum through the ball. A lot of beginners think their arms should carry the swing and end up with a weak swing by employing this misconception.

It is a good idea to skip the golf cart and walk the course when you are golfing. This gives you a bit of exercise where you can enjoy the sun and fresh air, improving your fitness while you have a bit of fun! Walking also keeps you loose and warms up your muscles.

TIP! To check your stance, wiggle your toes. If the golfer finds this act difficult as he prepares to swing, he is leaning unreasonably forward and into the ball.

Using your whole body will help you to improve your golf game. Your whole body is the force behind your shot. Your whole body is instrumental in completing a swing. Not only will you be able to hit the ball further, but it will also alleviate your arms from doing all the work, putting less stress on your whole body.

TIP! There is a “sweet spot” on every golf club, which is where you always want to hit the ball to get the best accuracy. Go ahead and check out all of your clubs so that you know the sweet spots in each of them.

One of the most important things to remember when playing golf is not to take it so seriously. Mistakes in golf are common, and laughing at yours will allow you to learn from them and stay relaxed.

Sweet Spot

TIP! Knowing how exactly to keep score is a good idea for golf. Your score will show how your game progresses over time and can be used to compare you to other golfers.

You may hear the term “sweet spot” when discussing golf clubs. This is the area on the club face that reaps the best results when striking the ball. Take the time to recognize where this ‘sweet spot’ can be found on each of your clubs in order to maximize your game.

TIP! Ensure that the back of the foot in front is lined up with your ball when you do a drive shot. In every other shot, the ball should be right between your feet.

Keep focused on the next shot, forget those before it. Don’t let other players’ or even your own good or bad shots effect the next one you take. Worrying about mistakes can have an effect on your swing, so forget them and move forward.

TIP! Transfer your weight from your back foot to your front foot by rapidly swinging through your hips after assuming your golf stance. This will help to increase the power when you swing and how far you drive the ball.

If at all possible, golf with strong players and pay attention to their technique. You can learn a lot from a fellow golfer. Of course, not everyone can afford a one-on-one with Tiger Woods, but skilled players are almost always willing to impart knowledge on eager amateurs. Be attentive of how they play and ask them questions about how they train.

TIP! Protect your confidence, and enjoy yourself more by playing mostly with other golfers at your level. Try playing on courses that are designed for beginners.

Avoid being super-tight or ultra-loose with your golf swing. Don’t squeeze the club too tightly; this makes your shots go further right than you want. On the other hand, tightening the grip too far will have the reverse effect and cut a well-aimed ball towards the left. Analyze what direction your shots are traveling in, and then make alterations to your grip accordingly.

TIP! Stand a few feet behind the ball and locate where you’re going to send it prior to addressing it. Then you need to take the wind speed and other factors into consideration.

Try lining your feet up properly. You can truly improve your game and swing by doing this simple thing. You should set your feet at a 90 degree angle to the direction in which the ball should travel. One common way to make sure your feet are in alignment with where you want to hit the ball is to lay your club in a way that it is touching the toes on both your feet.

TIP! Perhaps one of the most important things to understand in the game of golf is that when the club strikes the ball, the club’s face must be perfectly square for maximum distance and accuracy. Correct club and ball alignment assures the ball will be propelled straight ahead.

The game of golf is something that everyone can enjoy, but the ones who are most successful are the people who constantly practice all day long. With the tips you’ve learn, you can develop a repertoire of tricks that will make you a much better golfer.

Don’t just take our word for it!

"This system has given me a better understanding of the mechanics of the swing which I could not get through lessons. After completing this system my drives are much straighter, but the biggest benefit has been with my fairway woods.

This system is a ready reference for anytime I want to refresh the mechanics of my swing. I have seen similar instructions in other books etc. but never laid out in the same detailed way as your system.

This "Draw" System has given me more enjoyment because I finally feel I can work the ball either way now. I'm on a 10.5 hcp and The "Draw" System is what I need to help me get down to a single figure handicap."

Testimonial

"I used to slice a lot, but in the past two weeks using your "Draw" System, I have been drawing my shots more consistently now. It really stopped me from slicing. I can say, my biggest benefits with this "Draw" System is gaining more yardage and consistency. It really did increase my distance by at least 40 to 50 yards longer. And it really has improved my game and lowered my handicap.

I really like the illustrations - step by step drills. How it is broken up day by day as you practice. It teaches you from the very beginning and advances its way to your finish swing. I fully recommend this system 100% to all people who really want to improve their game. If it's from curing your slice, gaining more yards, or lowering your handicap. I say this "Draw" System is worth more that what it is selling for. Why spend a lot of money seeing a golf professional, when you can have the best instructions for less.

I really am lucky to have found this "Draw" System. If not for this system, I would have spent a lot of money seeing a golf professional or spending money on all those training aids advertised on TV. With much Aloha to you for your ingenious in bringing The "Draw" System to lots of golfers out there still struggling.

I really love playing golf now with my friends which I really impress them. I would like to say, thank you again to you for making The "Draw" System in such details. I now really enjoy playing the game of golf."
