Valuable Advice That Will Improve Your Game Updated for 2025

TIP! You will eventually find the best stance for you. Proper stance is essential, but it does vary by individual height, size, body frame and even gender.

People play golf to have fun, relax or compete. If you take the time to adapt some helpful pointers to your swing and overall approach to the game, you are sure to find increased enjoyment with each and every round.

TIP! Check with golf pros prior to buying new clubs. A professional should be able to help you with this important decision.

When you putt, have your left hand in front of the ball. Hold this position as you swing the club, maintaining it throughout your stroke. You will then be able to hold the position of your golf club and stop the ball from going off the front of the club.

Make sure you stretch and stay hydrated. Keeping your body fit will allow you to get the most out of your ability.

TIP! Don’t just use your arms and back for power when swinging a golf club. Involve your whole body in the fun to improve the effectiveness of your swing.

Knowing how to keep track of your score is a crucial element of playing golf. When you know how to keep score you aren’t judged as a bad player, it is something that shouldn’t be overlooked. Every hit of the golf ball is counted as a stroke. The total amount of strokes it takes to place the ball in the cup determines the total score for that hole. The less strokes, the better!

TIP! One way to check for correct posture before you swing is by wiggling your toes. If you can wiggle your toes easily, you are probably leaning too far away from your ball.

The true power for a swing comes from using the entire body, including leg and trunk muscles. 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.

TIP! Every golf club has a “sweet spot” – the point on the face where a ball struck with a good swing has perfect accuracy. Take the time to recognize where this ‘sweet spot’ can be found on each of your clubs in order to maximize your game.

Make sure your grip is neither too loose nor too tight. A grip that is overly tight will pull your shot rightwards. Conversely, if you hold your club too loosely, the ball will go off to the left. This can be used to your advantage, not when done by accident, but by remaining aware of the strength of your grip, its effects on the ball, and how to manipulate this before the stroke.

Mental preparation is as, if not more important, than physical preparation when playing a round of golf. Clear your mind and concentrate on the game.

TIP! Focus on the speed your swing has when you actually hit the ball if you’re facing a long putt. Try to hit a target in between your current location and the hole, rather than trying to get the ball in the hole using only one shot.

Before you pay for a previously-owned club, check out the head. If the club has a worn, shiny spot near its center, it has been overused by its previous owner. When this happens the club head doesn’t hold the ball the way it should be doing.

TIP! Whenever you can team up with strong golfers, do so! This way, you can learn by observation. There are myriad ways to improve your own game by observing a more experienced golfer.

Try some of the tips above, and watch as your game improves. Consistency enables you to know where your ball is going before you hit it. Put these pointers into play for successful sport.

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

"After following this system I am hitting the ball more solidly and have learnt not to 'overhit' attempting to get that extra 'meter.' The biggest benefit The "Draw" System has done is to give me a more consistent strike of the ball - I actually had a 100 meter wedge back-spin to the hole today.

Also this system has eliminated a tendency for my drives to fade/slice and I have seen videos that were basically aiming at the same objective but didn't provide the clear steps to work through like your system does."
