TIP! Before you spend a few hundred on a new set of clubs, ask a professional what sort of clubs might work for you. The course’s golf pro can advise you on what kinds of clubs will best suit your style, and can also help you to identify the newest and best products.

Whether you are a seasoned golfer or a terminology challenged beginner, it matters not. Players of all skill level and experience find golf to simultaneously present them with opportunities and challenges. Before hitting the links, check out the following tips for a little insight to give your game an edge.

TIP! Focus completely on the present shot. Make sure you do not let a bad shot get the best of you.

Golf clubs have a point known as the “sweet spot.” If the ball is hit at this point, it will fly true. Pracitce using your clubs until you become familiar with the “sweet spot” of each one. Remember, you should strike the ball with this “sweet spot” at the very end of a downward swing.

TIP! Concentrate on your swing speed if you have to contend with a long putt. Don’t aim for the hole, instead aim for a point between yourself and your goal which lies on the way to the hole.

If possible, play with good players and watch their techniques. There are myriad ways to improve your own game by observing a more experienced golfer. He or she doesn’t need to be a professional golfer in order for you to obtain some good advice on the subject. If you take careful note of their style, you may find inspiration and motivation for your own game.

Stretch before playing and stay hydrated. As with any sport, better physical conditioning can lead to better performance.

TIP! You may want to bring nuts or other high-protein food items with you when you play. When played properly, golf can be both mentally and physically challenging.

Always start each swing with your feet in proper alignment. This is the best way to improve your swing and it is such a simple and easy thing to do. Your feet need to be perpendicular and lined up straight to the way you need the ball to go. A way of accurately determining this is lining the golf club up beside your feet. The golf club end will point in the direction of the ball travel.

TIP! Prior to buying a golf club, consider getting one custom-fitted to your specifications. Every person has a different weight, height and body structure, so a golf club that works exceptionally well for one player, may be difficult for another player to use.

Try to line the end of your foot up with the golf ball when you drive. But for other swings, the ball should be at a median point between your right and left foot. The only exception to this stance is when the ball is on a slope.

TIP! Closely examine the head of any used club you consider buying. Clubs that have been used too much in the past, oftentimes, have a shiny, worn spot.

Do not assume a golfing stance that feels unnatural to you. One way to find a comfortable groove, is to practice different stances without using a club. Stand up while flexing your knees, bend them slightly at your waist and have your arms drop right on your front. When you clap your hands, hold them there. This is what a natural position is, so if you don’t feel comfortable with it, you are most likely overcompensating the position.

TIP! Before starting your swing, always check to ensure that you have the proper grip. Try to make sure that the handle rests on the palm of your hand with your thumbs facing down.

Now that you have taken the initiative to learn something new about the sport of golf, you can impress your golfing buddies (or that gorgeous pro shop attendant) with the information you’ve just picked up. Look for new ways to apply these skills to your current game, to make the game even more challenging and engaging.

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."

"I have picked up golf seriously at the age of 43. The "Draw" System has enabled me to understand what goes wrong with what I do to a golf ball and make corrections. Having this knowledge has me playing with a 19 handicap after only playing for a short while. It helped me understand the game better.

When I started playing my shots landed anywhere except where I was aiming. I am now getting my shots to go where I am aiming more regularly. Just yesterday, I hit a 141-yard shots on a par 3 and it landed 6 feet away from the hole. Three months ago that would never have happened.

The instructions and the pictures are wonderful. The instructions are concise and descriptive. Combined with the pictures, it promotes easy understanding. The pictures help the most."
