9 Golf Tips For Every Part of Your Game
Are you looking for golf tips for every part of your golf
game? If so, then you are in the right place. We are going
to give you 3 golf tips on how to hit better drives, 3 golf
tips on how to hit better irons and 3 golf tips on how to
hit better chip shots.
3 Golf Tips on How to Hit Better Drives
Everyone is in love with the fact of trying to get as much
distance as they can from their driver. Some players are
even obsessed to the point, it hurts their scores. A test
with tour players was done years ago on this subject. They
had them hit their drive. If it was in the fairway, fine. If
it was in the rough, they had them play that ball. In
addition, they put in play another ball that was in the
fairway but thirty yards behind their tee shot in the rough.
Believe it or not, these players scored better from the
fairway thirty yards behind the original ball in the rough!
That proves how important hitting it in the fairway is for
all of us. Here is how you can hit better drives:
1. Make sure your ball position is correct. Many amateurs
play their driver to far forward in their stance in an
attempt to help the ball in the air.
2. Use a full swing but only swing 80%. This means if a full
swing is normally 100mph then you are looking to stay in
balance and swing at 80mph.
3. Make sure that you have the correct shaft in your driver.
Many players have pre-conceived ideas that they need to hit
a certain flex shaft. I would make my decision more strictly
based on the ball flight.
3 Golf Tips on How to Hit Better Irons
Many players do not believe that they can improve their iron
play by slowing down and making sure they have the proper
club in their hand. Remember the closer that you are able to
hit your irons the shorter your putts will be and then you
will look like a better putter! Improve how you hit your
irons with these 3 tips:
1. As simple as it sounds most players do not know the
average distance that they hit each golf club. The key word
here is average. How long you hit your seven-iron one time
(downhill and downwind) simply does not matter. I would
rather brag about the low score I shot after the round than
the long seven-iron that I hit on the eighth hole!
2. Take the time while you are on the golf course to find
the yardage to the front and back of the green as well as
the distance to the hole.
3. Choose the club that allows you to make a full swing.
This takes away many variables that can go wrong during your
swing.
3 Golf Tips on How to Improve Your Chip Shots
Improving your short game and your chip shots is the
quickest way to lower your scores behind improving your
putting. Many players do not practice it as much because it
is not as glamorous as trying to bang out the long drives.
Even the best players miss greens so if you cannot chip the
ball around the green, you will not be able to ever score
very well. The short game of golf is where you really need
to practice, so check out the following 3 tips:
1. Any time that you can hit a low shit that runs the ball
up to the hole as opposed to flying it all of the way there,
do it. This gives you more room for error and
percentage-wise you will get you closer to the hole for the
next shot, unless you make the chip shot! Do not be scared
to use an eight, seven or even a five iron to get the
distance that you need.
2. Hold your finish until the ball has stopped rolling. Use
this time to monitor your balance and evaluate the shot.
3. Know without a doubt where you would like the ball to
land. If you claim to have trouble visualizing shots then
explain where you want to land it out loud. This will
accomplish the same thing.
Implement these golf tips into your game and you will see
your scores go down and you will have something to talk
about in the locker room!
