Swing Like A Pirate?.Use Your ARRRRRMS! The contribution of the body to the golf swing has been over emphasized for years. I guess one reason for this fact is that body positions were easy to point out in a golf magazine. Problem is, the over use of the body or excess body motion continues to be the killer of the golf swing for many a golfer, holding them back from their true potential. How To Lower Your Handicap Over The Winter Over the winter is an excellent time to make lasting changes in your swing movement. Why? Because it takes slow deliberate repetitions to teach your body to change motions or patterns which you probably would not be willing to do during the season because you want to play. Kick Starting Your Spring Golf Season If you are one of those golfers who “let yourself go” over the winter, don’t fret. Although there is nothing better for your long-term development than to practice year round, not playing during the off season is sometimes a positive. Maximizing Your Practice Time For Maximum Results For the average golfer or non professional, finding the time to practice is difficult enough. In most cases, even if the golfer finds the time to practice for improvement, their methods are flawed, thereby making the process even longer and inefficient. It’s not how long you practice but how you practice. This special report will help you make the most of the practice time you have so you can enjoy the maximum improvement for better golf. Taking Your Swing From the Driving Range to the Course Transferring your perfect consistent driving range warm up swing to the golf course is a typical dilemma and a frustration of many a golfer. You’re killing it on the range, everything seems perfect. You’re convinced that you will have your best round ever and then right on the first tee you yank it out of bounds! How To Reach The Proper Impact Position...It's All That Counts! Keep in mind that when someone slices the ball, their body is moving faster than their arms and club. A person who hooks the ball too much is doing the opposite. Their hands, arms and club are moving faster than their body. Since most people slice the ball, it is easy to see that it is almost impossible to swing your arms too fast. Starting Your Down Swing For Power The transition from loading to unloading should be smooth and rhythmic. The tempo may vary form person to person but it is important not to make the transition too “jerky.” A Glossary of Golf Terms for Beginners Knowing the "lingo" will go a long way to making you feel more comfortable in the golf world. Practice the Right Way for Maximum Results In Less Time! Some of these drills can be practiced anywhere. Some can be practiced without a club, some with a club but no ball. You will be surprised by the results of this “dummy” practice. However, for your time at the range we recommend practicing in the following manner. Golf Swing Compensations...the Golf Swing's Biggest Killer!!! This brings up the subject of “compensations.” An awareness of compensations will help you understand the relationship between various swing movements. The Center of the Golf Swing Where is the center of the golf swing? It is somewhere between the bottom of your spine and your navel. It is not your head, although the fallacy about controlling head movement persists. The Perfect Address - And It Ain't Madison Avenue! The right arm will be bent slightly, but not to such a degree that it severely pulls down the right shoulder. A right shoulder too low during address will encourage a vertical rather than horizontal rotating motion. Proper Practice Skills You are not a professional, so don’t be too critical of your development. It takes time. However, you can use your limited time far better than most amateurs. Golf & Business?.Go Together Like A Horse & Carriage! Golf is the game of business. More deals are closed in a golf course club house or through the relationships cultivated while playing golf than with any other endeavor. What does ?Alignment? mean and how is it different from ?Aim?? The question may seem too simple. Alignment deals with the shoulders, hips, knees and feet. We want these four body parts all in “alignment” so they are all pointing in the same direction. Pointing them in the same direction is “aiming.” What does ?Alignment? mean and how is it different from ?Aim?? The question may seem too simple.

Some students improve more than others, even if some golfers don't realize it at first. However the break down is in maintaining the improvement.

Over the Net Golf Lessons with Video Analysis and Touring Pro Comparisons I've put together the first of its kind "Over the Net" golf membership program. Why, because time is becoming an influence in golf, time to play, time to practice. I think golfers need instructional ideas, (golf tips) and drills that they can do in their home or office with tangible results. "How To Hit Your Golf Driver" Your initial golf shot is your most important golf shot in my estimation. It's sort of like first down in football. If you're second down and twenty every time you get the ball you're going to have a long afternoon. I'm used to it, being a Dolphin fan. If You Are Going to Play Tournament Golf, You Better Get Good at Pre-shot Routine! One huge example of the difference between the golfer that makes it in tournament play and the one that doesn’t is his/her pre-shot routine. How To Read Golf Greens for Speed and Break Remember if you are off on your amount of break by a foot or two it probably won’t cause you to three putt. It’s that putt you leave seven feet short or twelve feet past the hole that will cause you to three putt. Get the pace first, then the line.

I Don?t Think So. I can’t tell you how disappointed I am in the powers to be at The Masters Golf Championship. They’ve ruined my favorite golf tournament. I’m quite certain that Bobby Jones is turning in his grave! Be Careful Taking Golf Swing Advice From Golf Magazines! Many a good golf swing has been ruined by over emphasizing a golf tip from a golf magazine or a golf book. Golfers read what seems like a great tip, and it might be, but for another golf swing rather than yours.

I have to admit I attended my very first collegiate golf tournament at King's Mill yesterday. I can certainly stand by my statement that kids that play golf are better kids. I did not see one participant throw their golf clubs, (all though I saw some shots that warranted a temper tantrum or two) and when spoken to they were very polite and just all around good kids.
