TIP! You can implement this subtle research into your own style, which helps create a stance and methodology that is perfect for you. There’s no stance that works for everybody.

Are the person who thinks that birdies an eagles are just a fun thing to watch as they fly by, or an experienced golfer? Golf is a game that is always challenging you, regardless of current skill. Before hitting the links, check out the following tips for a little insight to give your game an edge.

TIP! It is a good idea to skip the golf cart and walk the course when you are golfing. This turns your golf outing into an exercise outing, as well, which will do wonders for your health if you golf every week.

A good piece of golf advice is to look into consulting with a golf pro before choosing which clubs to purchase. A golf professional will know the most about the different clubs available, and can offer up advice on which clubs best fit your swing type.

TIP! A simple way to spot possible problems with your golf stance is to use the toe-wiggle procedure. If the golfer finds this act difficult as he prepares to swing, he is leaning unreasonably forward and into the ball.

Wiggling your toes while getting ready to swing will tell you if your posture is correct. If your toes wiggle freely, your posture may be tilted too far back. You want to lean toward the ball just enough to allow some wiggle, but not excessively free foot movement.

TIP! You can test the effectiveness of your golf swing by wiggling your toes a bit. If you can move your feet freely, then you are most likely leaning too far away from the golf ball.

Don’t take golf too seriously – remember that it’s a game. You will be able to relax and have fun if you recognize that mistakes happen to everyone and are simply a necessary part of the learning process.

TIP! You should put all of your attention on the next shot. You should not be distracted by the previous shot or anything else going on around you.

It is crucial that you maintain all of your minds focus on the shot that you will be making the next time it is your turn to swing. Don’t let the outcome of the previous shot, or any upcoming challenges, influence the way you swing that club. When you do make a mistake, just take note of what you did wrong. From there make the changes necessary to succeed; you don’t want to let them consume you.

TIP! Try to golf with better players and take note of what they do. You can benefit from the experience of your fellow golfers in more ways than one.

Maintain a neutral grip with your hands on the golf club. Holding your club too tightly when you swing will usually make your shots turn right instead of going straight. However, if you don’t hold the club tightly enough, you’ll hit the ball too far left. Correct your grip according to the trajectory of your shots.

TIP! Put your entire body into your swing to get a powerful shot. Try to use your body as if it where a whip while swinging, and obtain power from the legs as they push off of the ground.

The back of the front fooT should be aligned with the ball during your drive. For other swings, your two feet should be about equidistant from the ball. If you are on a slope, then it shouldn’t be centered.

TIP! Make sure to line up your feet properly. This is important if you wish to have a better golf swing.

Mental preparation is as, if not more important, than physical preparation when playing a round of golf. Whatever stressful situations you’re dealing with should be left at home. While you’re on the course, your mind needs to be free and clear.

Golf Clubs

TIP! Before you pay for a previously-owned club, check out the head. Clubs which have been used profusely usually have a worn, shiny spot.

Custom golf clubs are the very best and are well worth the investment, if you golf even semi-seriously. Golf clubs are not “one size fits all” and should be chosen with extreme care based off of style, physical aspects, and playing method. Getting the club that suits your body can help your swing.

TIP! Try to ensure that you hold the golf club properly. 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!

"My fairway woods are now much more consistent in distance and much straighter, both off the tee and from the fairway. Also my mid iron shots are more consistent than in the past.

This system helped me to learn to put all the pieces together to know what a good swing should feel like. Whereas in the past someone might give me a good piece of advice, but I never had it in the context of a whole solid swing. And now I'm finally gaining confidence with my swing.

The instructions were easy to follow. The pictures added a lot of clarity to what you were looking to emulate. The "Draw" System gives you a step by step approach to building a good, solid, repeatable golf swing. All the drills are geared towards that singular goal of producing a swing that will produce a draw.

I've seen a lot of the drills used in The "Draw" System, but this is the first time where I've seen all the drills tied together in order to produce the "whole" good swing. And I'm finally learning what a good swing should feel like, (after years of unsuccessful guessing), and can try to recreate that sensation on the course.

I enjoy playing golf more now because I can actually start aiming at where I want to hit the ball. And I'm having a lot more fun actually hitting a lot more often from the fairway!

A very good, useful book! Thanks for compiling all the information and drills to help me understand and incorporate the swing mechanics in order to produce a draw."

"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."
