“How To Be Good At Golf…”

Golf is a sport and can be learned.  Practice makes perfect. The higher the level of play one achieves, the more practice of fundamentals has to occur.  Golf is no exception to this rule.   So, if you are serious, practice, practice, practice.

“Practice Swing…”

Swings should be practiced regularly. Some clubs will hit better for you than others.   If you have a nice size yard, you can set up practice areas.  Doing this in private allows you to get the fundamentals down before hitting the green.

Improve You Golf Game by:

• Watching People On The Greens;
• Watching People On Television;
• Hiring A Pro (but this Will reduce the size of your wallet);
• Taking A Golf Class;
• Reading An eBook;
• Subscribing To A Golfing Magazine;

“Have Fun…”

Remember take your time and have fun.  You like to golf, but you need to improve your game. Did you know that if you include a fitness regimen, it can improve your golf game by a good amount of strokes?  If you work on the upper body strength, you should be able to drive the ball further and closer to the hole.

“Golf Discipline…”

In addition, discipline working out translates to discipline focusing on your game.  When you are willing to spend the time and effort it takes to become fit and help your game, it also helps concentration. You can also focus on exercises to improve your swing.  When you are working out, you don’t want to go overboard. You can do a little light training everyday and your game will improve with time.

“Start Simple…”

Most exercises that can improve your game are simple. You will find that many of the guys at the gym are working out for their game. Your program should be focused on general conditioning.  You will want to include squats to improve leg strength too. Include stretching exercises.  As with any exercise regimen seek medical advice before you start.

All you need to do is some running, some stretches, and some lifting to improve you overall body strength.  The tortoise wins, not the hare.

When it comes to equipment, you will need a medicine ball and exercise ball. With the medicine ball, you will increase your awareness and forearm strength.

“Top Line…”

If you want to go whole hog, you can always buy an inexpensive set of weights.  When you begin your work out (with your doctors permission) you will notice a difference in your game.  Start slow with small weights and build up over time.  Remember, ligaments and tendons gain strength much slower than muscle, so be aware that going up in weight too much too quick can create injuries that take a long time to heal.
