Pointers For Adding A Little Extra Distance On Your Drive

By Bertie B Bananas


Luckily for would-be golfers out there, you can find a ton of literature on the sport, as well as various training videos and programs. However, some people only wish to seek out some simple and easy-to-implement golfer tips. If you fit the bill here as "some people," then you'll love the tips listed below.

Slices are a big problem for golfers with a variety of causes, but the most common and easily correctable cause is the grip. Make sure that you can see the first two knuckles on your left hand and a V between the thumb and forefinger pointing at your right shoulder.

A helpful tip to golfing is to make sure that you are hitting with a clean club. The face of the club can easily get dirt on it and cause you to have unexpected results. Make sure all of the grooves are completely free of dirt and mud before hitting the ball.

If you are faced with a very long putt you should devote most of your concentration to the speed with which you hit the ball. Instead of aiming for the hole, read the putt and aim for an intermediate target. This will increase the chance of a short second putt by helping to ensure your putt is not too long or too short.

Make sure you build on your failures when putting. Paying attention to what happens with your ball on the first putt is important so you can determine how to approach the next putt more accurately.

Make putting practice a little more fun by setting up your own mini-golf course out on the putting green. Like most practice, repetition on the golf course can be tedious, so spicing things up by playing the green as your own course can make your practice sessions both fun and productive.

Keep your feet lined up with the golf ball. If you place the club at your feet so that it touches your toes, the ball is going to go in the direction that your toes are pointing if you are hitting it right. Try it a few times and you will see how this works.

A helpful tip when it comes to golf is to make sure that you realize that each person is different and certain techniques that work for them might not apply to you. This is important in being able to determine your best form as well as when you provide advice to other people.

As stated in the opening, it doesn't matter if you're looking to take your game out on tour or simply out to the driving range. If you want to blow off some steam and enjoy an afternoon of golf, the tips you've read in the article above, will help you perfect your game.
