Don’t play it. You’ll keep your stress level down and live longer.
Keeping talc at hand to stop hands sweating. I know its obvious but it makes a real difference.
1.Laser your eyes in the ball and keep them there till you are following thru.
2. Always Always follow through to get out of the sand, the sand carries your ball out if hit right
3. Just when you think you are getting better, you get worse, LOL that one makes me laugh, if my irons and putting is on, my drive is off, and vice versa.
But I still LOVE THE SPORT!
1. Get lessons from a good teacher who fits your learning style. All teachers will do an 10 minute intro lesson for free.
2. Get off the driving range after 1 year of beginners group lessons and practice. Play more on course golf. Sneak on a hole and drop multiple balls from various locations and lies.
3. Distance control is key to putting. 2-putting every hole will drop so many more strokes than perfecting your swing. Use a flag-football count on the practice green before a round to see how long a 10 pace putt takes. “one-one thousand, two-one thousand, three- one thousand”. Most people underestimate putting distance and time by a lot.
“drink beer after your round not during”
a great slicing tip is fixing your grip, take your normal left hand grip then bring your right hand in from the side, not over top of your left
This one is an absolute must for all golfers:
Mason Rudolph once said “Swing easy and learn to live with the extra distance.”

Three great drills:
1. Connection drill – take either two small headcovers or two golf gloves and place them under your arms. Using a pitching wedge, make 10 three quarter swings only focusing on not dropping the items under your arms. This is done by some of the best in the business these days – Padraig, Vijay, etc… Just be sure to stick with short shots on this drill. It’s purpose is to get the big & small muscles of the upper body working in sequence together.
2. Balance drill A – Hit 15 shots and with each shot, hold your finish until the ball lands. As simple as it is, it’s a fantastic drill for developing real consistency over the long term. Think this is too simple for your liking, you Tiger & Phil wannabes? Go to your local course and watch the golfers on the range/course. How many of them hold their finishes (and how many of them can break 100)? Now watch 5 minutes of PGA/LPGA Tour golf on TV. How many hold their finishes? And how good are they again? Try it and you’ll surprise yourself.
3. Balance drill B – Place 5 golf balls in a line that’s perpendicular to your target line/foot line, all about 3 inches apart. Back up about ten feet from the golf balls and with club in hand, stand on one leg (for RH golfers, your left leg). W/o using your club as a crutch, hop over to the closest ball and make as balanced a swing as you can, being sure to use your body to turn back & thru (not your hands & wrists).
After impact, try to really get thru the ball to the point that you almost have to hop to maintain your balance. Once you’ve accomplished this, don’t put your right leg down. Remember, you still have 4 more balls to hit.
Once you’ve hit all five golf balls, hop back over to the original spot where you started from and then you can put your right leg back down on the ground. This is much more difficult than it seems, but is a lot of fun, especially for kids who have a decent amount of experience in the game. But trust me, you’ll feel this one.
Try this a few times, then hit ten or so normal shots with both feet in standard position. It’s a great way to teach balance in a golf swing.

John daly says that to get more distance lean your tee as far forward as you can on the tee box. This will add 1 inch to your total drive. every time.
Before every round I go to the putting green, but I don’t putt at the flagged holes there.
What I do is place a white tee in the ground, then start putting at 3 feet with 5 balls surrounding the tee. After I hit the tee 5 times in a row, I move out to 5 feet and putt there until I hit the tee 5 times in a row, then move out to 10 feet and putt there.
When you line up your putt on the first green, you feel as if the hole is a 5 gallon bucket, not a 4 inch hole.
