TIP! Walking, rather than renting a cart, is a really good idea when you golf. This will give you more exercise on the course and that is a great way to be in better shape.

With golf, as with everything, practice makes perfect. Learn to swing the right way. There are many other areas of golf you must know about in order to play a good game. The following tips will help you hone your game and be a better golfer.

TIP! A good piece of advice for improving your golf swing is making sure you utilize your entire body for power. There is a common misconception that all of your power comes from your arms, yet it is actually all about position and form.

Walk and don’t rent a golf cart. Walking the course will also help you become more familiar with the grounds and help you with your shots. Plus, you will stay warmed up and loose as you walk along, thus improving your golf game.

TIP! Not trying to be too perfect will help you as you learn the game of golf. If you can learn to laugh at your mistakes, you’ll relax and play better instead of continuing to make them.

Wiggling the toes may offer insight into problems with one’s golf stance. If it is difficult to wiggle your toes when preparing to swing your club, this indicates you are leaning too far towards the ball. In order to gain a good posture, golfers can use their feet to judge and lean back.

Sweet Spot

TIP! To help you hit better golf shots, pay close attention to how you are addressing the ball. Your stance is often what determines the distance of your shot.

Look for the “sweet spot” of your golf club. This refers to a point on the club that should be ideally meeting the ball for the most accuracy and speed. Clubs are each individuals, and the “sweet spot” varies from club to club. You must practice with your set, and find the “sweet spot” for each club to improve the accuracy of your game.

TIP! If you are considering purchases used golf clubs, always make sure to examine the head of the clubs. A good indicator that a club is past its prime is if you notice an worn-out spot on the head.

To better your skills, stand in the proper position. Your stance is often what determines the distance of your shot. The ball will not go very far if you are not slouching the right amount.

TIP! Don’t get carried away trying to pull off an unnatural stance. Try practicing your stance without a club in your hand.

Custom golf clubs are the very best and are well worth the investment, if you golf even semi-seriously. Every golfer has different weights, body structures, and heights, so a club that will work for a single golfer might not work for another. By ensuring that you have a set that fits your body, you have a much better chance to develop a solid swing.

TIP! Keeping the ball in same position regardless of the shot type is important. This will keep your stance permanent and consistent.

When considering buying a second-hand golf club, be sure to take a close look at the club head. Golf clubs with a large amount of wear from heavy use will show a shiny spot where the ball has come in contact with the club. This is not good because the club head will not hold the ball as well.

TIP! If you’re in the right position to swing, quickly swivel your hips so your weight moves from your back foot to your forward foot. Doing so increases both your swing power and the distance your ball travels.

Before you begin your swing, be sure to hold the golf club in the correct way. Your thumbs should stay pointed downward, and the handle of the club should sit lightly against your palms. Both of your hands should be touching. Make sure you are choking up on your club if you desire to hit your ball longer distances.

TIP! If your shot tends to head off to the right, you are most likely sliding your body to the left while swinging. During the downswing, quickly release your hands to the ball.

Despite what a lot of folks will tell you, keep a consistent position for all your shots. Doing so makes your stance mentally ingrained for physical consistency. Change the position of your feet in order to alter the loft, instead of trying to chance the ball position. Doing this will make sure that you always select the proper club in any given situation.

TIP! Retain the proper stance. To make sure your stance is correct, without moving the feet, attempt tapping your toes.

Now it’s up to you to take what you’ve learned in this article and start using it in practice. Apply the tips and tricks you have learned, and you will surely see a great improvement! Above all, keep the fun in your game and you’ll always be a winner!

Don’t just take our word for it!

Although the system is meant to improve your draw, in fact it has improved other areas of my game e.g. my setup and accuracy. I am now consistently hitting the ball cleanly and going in the direction I want it to. I think these are the benefits of the various drills and exercises you suggested.

The "Draw" System has narrowed the exercise and search for improving my game because everything is presented in a neat package without having to search all of them individually.

Being new to the game I did wonder why certain drills and exercises were recommended. In the end I did find out they were great. The instructions are explained very simply and easy to follow but as I said I did wonder initially what they had to do with trying to draw the ball. The answers came in the end.

I used to slice the ball badly before but now I can hit it straight or if it goes right it is not as bad as before, at least it still stays on the fairway. It is a great feeling to see that ball stay on the fairway."

"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."
