Assuming you have taken a number of golf lessons and you have been out regularly on the driving range practicing the different instructions the pro. coach has taught you e.g., grip, stance, swing and putting. Whatever the instructions were it is very important to stick to what you were told to practice on.
We will presume by now you have been out on the golf course on quiet a number of occasions. With that in mind here are a few tips for you, and hopefully help you further to enjoy the game more.
•As in any new game one takes up, it will require plenty of practice regardless of what game it is, getting to know the game more helps you enjoy it more.
•Before going out on the course, before any game of golf, always arrive approx.,1 hour before you are due to play. Never arrive when you are due on the tee box, as neither your mind or body are prepared, and you will pay the price with poor to bad results.
•Being late to play is a an offence both to your playing partners, and also to the club as you will be delaying the time sheet.
•Being at the golf course the hour before play. Go to the driving range and practice with the different woods and irons including practicing on the putting green. It will help you to relax and give confidence starting off your game. A very good e-book on golf generally is an e-book called "Pure Point Golf!" by Bobby Eldridge. He gives a Free 1 hour DVD, well worth looking at.
•Keep in mind that you as most golf beginners won’t get all the results you would like for some time.
•Stick with your prepared routine and remember you will be as good as and maybe just maybe even a little bit better than your golf beginner friends.
•Your objective is to get to know, get used to, and most of all enjoy the game of golf.
•Teeing off: Stand well behind the ball and get a clear imaginary line to the target, pick a spot approx. 10 feet from the where ball is on the tee and the target line, line up to that target, hips and shoulders fully square to the target, relax and take a deep breath before hitting the ball, and then a nice even follow through swing.
•When as you will make lots of mistakes and as the professionals do, remember how to beat the effect of the mistake, is to try and not get mad with yourself, and most importantly put the mistake behind you, forget it and focuses on your next shot. Ideally you should play each shot as if it is the only shot you are going to play, take a deep breath, shake those shoulders and move on, again you are a golf beginner.
•Always have your golf rule book in your golf bag that is your bible. It will be of great benefit if you or your partners require answers to any particular rule you may need answering, remember by making the mistake and finding the answers that is one way you will remember the rules.
•Don’t hold your grip too tight, find a grip that is light and comfortable for you, A tight grip can cause all kind of problems; again relax with a nice easy grip.
•Finally have one intention before you start your game, and that should be to go out and enjoy the game, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the golf course and the fresh air
Remember that e-book I mentioned by Bobby Eldridge "Pure Point Golf!" definitely worth a look at especially with the free DVD.
