he basic clubs that make up Twedges a set of include woods, irons, and a putter. Hybrids have

become popular with beginning golfers since they are so easy to hit. Follow guidelines that explain the features of golf clubs to decide what kind of clubs to buy to give you the accuracy, consistency and distance you desire.

Selecting the Woods To start off your set, select a driver and two or three other woods. The driver should have a large head size, over 430 cc, which will feature a larger sweet spot. This kind of club will be more forgiving of misshits typical of beginning players. To help you launch the ball into the air and reduce the possibility of a hook to the left or a slice to the right, look for a driver with increased loft. TaylorMade SLDR Drivers for beginning players should have a loft of 12 to 15 degrees. Pick out some woods, also with a larger club head.

You might want to stay away from the 3 Wood at first, and stick with the more lofted 5 Wood, 7 Wood or even a 9 Wood. Make sure the shaft of the club is flexible, which will provide more distance than a stiffer shaft. Get measured to determine the ideal length for your woods, keeping in mind that the longer the club, the harder it is to hit.

Deciding on Irons & Hybrids The traditional golf club set includes irons from the 3 Iron to the 9 Iron.

Perimeter weighting can help you keep the ball straight on the target line, and offset club heads help keep the club face square to the target on impact. A wider sole on the club helps to get the ball up in the air. Many new players are replacing their longer R11 irons like the 3, 4 and even 5 Iron with hybrid clubs.

Hybrids with a low center of gravity and increased loft help to launch the ball and allow the beginning player to achieve more distance. For beginners, a set might include the lofted 6, 7, 8 and 9 Iron, along with a 3, 4, 5 and/or 6 hybrid for distance. The lowest-number hybrid should go 10 to 15 yards shorter than your highest number fairway wood to avoid a gap in coverage on the course.

Adding Wedges & the Putter Beginners will need a pitching wedge and a sand wedge, and perhaps a lob wedge. These lofted clubs are ideal for shots around the green. In addition, choose a Scotty Cameron Putter like a large-head mallet with a greater moment of inertia. These putters don’t twist on miss-hits and are easier to hit for short putts.

get the most out of your game

re you an aspiring golfer A who doesn’t know where to start, or an intermediate golfer looking to improve your game?

This article is written for golfers of all skill levels who want to know what techniques they can try to improve their shots and lower their scores. Read on to find out how.

In order to be good at golf, one of the basic things that you need to take care of is your grip. It is good to know how the ball will act in response to your grip. The tighter you hold the golf club, the more likely it is that the ball will go to the right. The looser the grip, the more likely that the ball will go to the left.

Add power to your swing by using your body, not your arms. Lean in to power your shot. Turn with the ball on the downswing. This lets you use the power of all of the muscles in your body to get a better shot, instead of being limited to just your arm muscles.

Another helpful tip is to be sure that you are a positive role model on the course when it comes to sportsmanship. This will say a lot about your character and help to build up the relationship with whoever you are playing with. Never let competitiveness get in the way of friendship.

A helpful tip when it comes to golf is to make sure that you follow through with each shot that requires a full hit. This is helpful because you want to make the most out of your swing and stopping short may cause you to not hit the ball as far as intended.

If you want to get rid of a hook the first thing you should do is check your grip. If your grip is too strong, your right hand is rotated too far over your left hand, you should practice moving your hand to a more neutral position. This will open your club face at contact and should prevent the hook.

Additionally, always be sure to try to find the reason why things go wrong if you have a bad day or bad shot. It is common to blame outside factors for your shortcomings, but you will not become a better golfer unless you can narrow down how to improve.

We hope you enjoyed this article about improving your golfing game.

Hopefully, no matter what your skill level, you’ve learned something here that can improve your game and your overall skill as a golfer.

Apply these tips in your practice, play to see your scores drop and come out ahead of your opponents.

Golf Instructions 101

olf is not just about hitting a ball G with the end of a stick. It is much more than that. Though professionals

have always made golf seem like a relatively easy sport, it is in reality one of the hardest sports to play. It is all about hitting the ball correctly with the proper golf club. It is about controlling the swings to control the flight of the ball. Golf is more than what meets the eye. It is for this reason that golf instruction is quite needed for beginners and with this being said, here are a few tips that make up the basic golf instruction: 1. Add more loft at impact to make the ball fly farther To understand this golf instruction, it is important to know what loft is.

Loft is actually the degree of the clubface at the set up. When the drives hit off the upper half of the face, the result would be a higher dynamic loft. Hitting the upper half also makes the shot spin less.

Following these principles, when a player hits the center or the upper half of the clubface, this would result in a higher degree in initial launch and with less spins. This would then make the ball fly further and higher. It will also land with a stronger forward roll.

To be able to hit higher, it is suggested that the player tilt his shoulder during setup. The left shoulder should be lower than the right shoulder. This stance will make the player hit the ball on an increasing angle of attack.

This particular golf instruction would be perfectly executed when repeatedly practiced several times 2. Focus is the best play Golf is not a lazy and distracted manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sport. This golf instruction number two focuses on the being and concentration of the player. To make sure that all hits would give the desired effect, the person should have his full attention to his drive. Focus does not necessarily mean that a person should make tactics or create game plays.

It only means that the player should be engaged in the game, relax when doing the swings, and think of the present. It would help when a golf player would imagine what his swings should result into and not what would happen after every strike.

3. Balance is a personal practice for golf instruction Though there is a standard stance that instructors teach beginners, there is also a certain stance that gives the player the most comfort and best balance. A player should therefore try a number of stances during initial set up and see which of these stance resulted in the best drives. A recommended routine is to try swinging with the legs together first, then swing with only the right foot on the ground. The next few swings would then be done with the left foot on the ground. Finally, when the person has fixed his balance, he should try swinging with his eyes close. This short routine helps a person with his balance.

gun safety & children

I

f you have children in your home and also own firearms there is a new item on the market called Safety Bullet. It can prevent accidental shootings. You load it into your chamber and one in the magazine.

If Someone pulls the trigger you hear a little pop. That was the Safety Bullet firing.

Nothing comes out of the muzzle, but if someone tries to pull the slide back or turn the cylinder it will not move.

Now if the person pulls the slide back on a semi auto with a second Safety Bullet in it, the first one will eject and load the second one, resulting in the same thing happening ─ a locked up gun.

Now in less time than it takes to get your firearm out of a safe you can pull the slide back twice or rotate the cylinder and be

ready to use your firearm.

Once locked up, it is very easy to unlock. I also heard that someone stole a pistol with the Safety Bullet in it.

When they fired the pistol, it locked up. So they took it to a gunsmith for repair and were arrested. I have the Safety Bullet in stock at this time.

Handi-Racker Here’s another item that is very useful when handling firearms. It is designed for use with semi-auto hand guns. A lot of people have a problem chambering a round in a semi-auto pistol.

They just cannot pull the slide completely back to chamber or eject a round. This device solves that problem. It fits over the top of the slide and front sight. You then place it against a hard surface and

The Back Nine of AUGUSTA ♦ advertising to move your business forward ♦ 14

push forward, opening the slide very easily. It is about the size of a pack of cigarettes so it’s easy to carry with you.

There are different sizes to fit the firearm correctly. I have the Handi-Racker in stock also.

Slip 2000 These are firearm lubricants that are non-toxic, nonhazardous and environmentally safe. They have lubricants for regular weapons and extreme weapons (full auto).

This brand includes degreasers, carbon removers, choke cleaners and copper cutters. They also have items for black powder, paintball, airsoft and more. I highly recommend the use of this product. If you are near Warrenville, feel free to stop in.

t’s no secret that quality golf gear can be a bit on the pricey side. But if you’re really committed to learning how to play your best game, then properly fitting golf wholesale equipment is essential.

Do you have to spend a fortune on all of the latest, most high tech, brand name clubs and gear? Of course not. But taking the time to see the club fitter at your local course or golf shop and getting the measurements for clubs that fit you best will go a long way towards improving your game from day one. Make the initial investment, and every other golf tip you follow will work out better for it.

Unless you’re giving yourself enough room to follow through, your swing won’t be nearly as effective. The secret to a proper stance lies in the width of your feet. You should be setting yourself up wide, with most of your weight on the right side of your body.

Tilt your shoulders to the right, as well. As a point of reference, your head should be aligned slightly to the right of the top of the zipper on your pants. Once you’re in position, make sure you’re holding your driver far enough from your body to allow for a powerful swing.

One of the biggest mistakes made by amateur women golfers is to attempt to scoop the ball into the air with the head of the club. In reality, this will cause your swing to slow down after impact. The definition of proper tempo is a buildup of speed.

Harnessing that acceleration and learning to control your speed and power is the best way to drive your swing through the impact on the ball, bringing you to a full finish.

Like anything else, perfecting your golf game takes effort, commitment, and most of all time. The bottom line is this: if you don’t get out and play, you’ll never get any better. Putting in at least two rounds a month (even if it’s just 9 holes) will go a long way towards getting you where you want to be.

Consider joining a women’s league!

Being around other enthusiastic beginners might be just the impetus you need to get out and put in the time on your game. Keep in mind that you’re still learning, so don’t stress your score too much to begin with. Instead, focus on developing your game and style, and experiment with different shots and clubs.

junior golf academy

G

olf has recently become a much more popular game to the world of sports. In recent years, it has also seen as an increase career choice, as golf programs and schools around the country make it that much easier to enter into the field. What about a full-time golf academy?

Golf camps and schools for junior players do a lot to help groom their skills but for junior golfers who want to live and breathe golf, it may be a good idea to opt for a full time golf academy. Take for instance JPGA, a full time golf academy, where junior golf players can go to school and get to play golf after the school day is done. Typically, a full time academy will go on for 9 months and students can play and practice with the help of a golf pro. How to Choose a Golf Academy?

For junior golfers and parents who like the idea of attending a golf academy full time, they really need to take a look at what these schools offer. Below are some things they need to ask the school…

What is the teacher to student ratio?

Typically, the best academy is one that has a limited teacher to student

ratio. This way, the student gets more face time with the teacher and they will be able to learn better.

Do they have private instructions with a pro?

It is a good idea for junior golfers to learn as part of a group, but there are times when they will need one-on-one coaching lessons with the academy golf pro. Ask the academy if they have this for their kids or if it is a service that costs extra.

Do they conduct V1 video golf analyses?

One of the best perks about attending a full-time academy is that they normally have contacts with college coaches.

The academy will then send videos of the players to college coaches who will draw attention to the kids and perhaps score them scholarships.

Does the school provide for junior golf events?

Junior golf players need to compete and it is a good idea to ask the school to what golf events they will send the kids and what they will shoulder for the trips.

These are just some of the questions that need to be asked by folks thinking of joining a junior golf academy.

book your tee time online

T

here is no industry that has been unaffected by the age of the Internet. Web connectivity has effectively changed the way the world does business and the way people manage their lives.

Many times that management system comes courtesy of a smartphone.

People pay bills online, book event tickets, and make reservations all without needing to dial a number on a phone.

So, it was only a matter of time before the Internet revolution trickled into the golfing world.

The sport’s popularity is quickly gaining ground worldwide, with the Asian market bolstering a large part of that growth. The added growth has caused many golf courses to go online.

Now people can book golf lessons, tee times and more using software designed for the

sport’s aficionados. In the not too distant past, people who wanted a tee time had to show up at the course to request a time.

Then, showing up was replaced by a telephone call, and finally the call has been replaced by the Internet.

Today’s world moves at the speed of light and sometimes people are unable to book tee times during a course’s business hours. Now, no one has to wait for a business to open. They just simply go online whenever it is convenient and book their tee time.

The ease of booking can indirectly be attributed to a slight increase in people on the course. The easier and more innovative things are, the better it is for society.

Now it is simpler for courses to organize their schedules because of the availability of software catering to golf businesses.

The Back Nine of AUGUSTA ♦ advertising to move your business forward ♦ 20

There are a few companies which sell software specifically for use within golf courses. This software allows their businesses to run seamlessly and gives them the ability to manage everything from one computer.

Many software systems allow real time updates which permit golfers to be notified of any changes in availability which could possibly affect their tee times. The software has revolutionized businesses and someone would be hard pressed to discover a course or avid golfer that did not use some type of software to manage their golfing life.

The need to manage large numbers of people has caused some of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top courses to use software to help manage members and guests at their courses.

Although many golfers have at least one type of tee management software on their computers or smartphones, many courses have a portal on their website for members to access available tee times, check the weather and more.

The sheer access of information permits many golfers to ensure that there will be nothing but blue skies on the day that they want to play.

The software can also assist with increasing customer satisfaction, by giving them their ideal type of conditions to play.

For example, someone is interested in playing at a certain time, so they log onto the site and discover that while their desired time is available, the time slots surrounding it will be quite full. Thus, the golfer books a time when there are fewer people golfing and anticipates enjoying the day.

Another factor which aids golfers in enjoying their time spent golfing is the increased level of service software provides. Employees are granted more time to focus their energies to providing better service and ensuring things run smoothly since people have greatly reduced their call volume.

The Internet has transformed the golfing industry for the better. It has employed seamless software integration to allow golfers the ability to schedule their tee times and perform other duties without calling the course. This freedom has caused an increase in service which is then transferred to happier members and more revenue. the back nine of AUGUSTA â&#x2122;Ś backninepublishing.com â&#x2122;Ś 21

are you swinging your club too hard?

T

he possibility of swinging excessively hard is enough to make even the best golfer stop in their tracks. Most golf enthusiastic are aware that swinging too hard is one of the 3 Golf Commandments never to break.

So whenever you may hit an awful drive - the first thing out of the mouth of anyone nearby is: ‘You looked like you were trying to execute that ball!’ And your answer is no doubt: ‘Better believe it, I tried to hit that one a mile.’

Yet, have you ever thought seriously that the fear of swinging too hard could

really prompt more lost golf balls than actually doing it?

What does that mean?

As most golfers are so stressed over swinging excessively hard and hitting an awful golf shot - the best players on the planet are swinging near 30 mph (48 kph) faster than you.

Yet, no one is letting them know that they’re swinging excessively hard - and by the looks of things - they’re hitting some really average golf shots that are interpreting into some really great scores.

Would you concur?

From the research that I’ve seen, the normal male is swinging his driver at 85 mph (137 kph) and the normal

The Back Nine of AUGUSTA ♦ advertising to move your business forward ♦ 22

female is swinging her driver at 75 mph (121 kph). Yet, Ernie Els, who’s regularly begrudged for how smooth he can swing - swings his Driver at 118 mph (190 kph). While Tiger swings his driver upwards of 125 mph (201 kph).

Yet, the apprehension of you swinging excessively hard, despite the fact that you’re swinging around 40 mph slower than the pros - is no doubt making you hit more awful shots than when you do really swing excessively hard. Significance - as a result of this issue, you’re undoubtedly decelerating with your Driver, which could prompt such unpleasant impacts, for example, cutting and loss of separation. Have you ever accomplished both of those?

Whenever you’re remaining by the first tee holding up for your tee time - watch the gathering that is teeing off. I expect you’ll see most Golfers decelerating their golf swing to the point that they really have the vast majority of their weight on their back foot at contact with the golf ball. Have you ever wound up with your weight on your back foot?

Implying that in light of the fact that you’re making a decent attempt not to swing excessively hard, that you are utilizing your body to ease off your swing by inclining over on your back foot. Again, have you ever gotten yourself on your back foot after a Drive? Deceleration!

Trust me; on and around the greens aren’t the main spots you’re decelerating. You’re additionally in all likelihood doing likewise with your Driver. However, deceleration is frequently not reprimanded for the awful tee shot - its regularly mis-diagnosed by the ‘swing specialists’ that you may be playing with as “getting your head, swinging excessively hard, swinging outrageous, twisting your left elbow, not turning your shoulders, etc.”

Yes, having the capacity to swing smooth can help you to hit a superior golf shot. However, attempting to swing moderate will really make you hit an awful golf shot. the back nine of AUGUSTA ♦ backninepublishing.com ♦ 23

singapore is a golfer’s delight

S

ingapore has long been known for beautiful beaches, clean roads and a low crime rate. This has caused the country to enjoy a solid tourism industry complete with solid growth.

One of the reasons the country has witnessed that growth is because of the relatively new emergence of Singapore as a golfing destination.

The past few years has seen the popularity of golf in Asia explode. There are courses which rival anything one could find in Scotland or the United States along with the highprofile golfers that play them.

Tournament money and sponsorship in the sport has increased which has caused a new generation of Asians to become interested in golf.

Thus

Singapore,

flush

with

money, has devoted much time to building some of the world’s best golf courses. Their courses are lush, difficult and come with some of the best service anyone could ask for.

The country plays host to 14 golf associations and more than 30 golf courses for amateurs and professionals to play.

The jewel in the country’s golfing crown is the Sentosa Golf Club which is 18 difficult holes with spectacular views of the harbor or the sea. It is the host of the Singapore Open and major athletes from the golfing world have walked through its doors and teed off. Forbes Magazine listed it as one of the top 10 elite golf courses in Asia.

Yet, just because only one course from Singapore made the list does not mean that that is the only course worth playing.

The Back Nine of AUGUSTA ♦ advertising to move your business forward ♦ 24

Golf in Singapore has become the favorite pastime of a number of Singaporeans and expats and the country has ensured that their courses match or exceed the quality of courses to be found abroad.

However, not all greens are open to everyone. The country has a mix of open courses and courses restricted to members only.

Yet, visitors set on playing at a course which is restricted to members need not to fret. Some hotels have agreements with exclusive courses to allow their guests to tee off at the elite courses for a nominal fee.

Yet visitors to the island who are unable to play at an exclusive course can still have a good time. One of the top courses in the country is open to the public and it has acquired quite the following.

The Marina Bay Golf Course is 18 holes of fun and is entirely open to anyone who wants to play it.

The location is perfect for businessmen and businesswomen who would like to knock a few balls around before or after the daily meeting. It is located right in the heart of downtown Singapore which gives it a premier location and unlimited accessibility.

This unlimited accessibility has been a problem for many in Singapore’s golfing world. The number of people who enjoy golf has grown exponentially, yet so has the city’s population. This has caused a number of courses be considered for redevelopment in order to accommodate the surrounding population.

This can cause the city’s courses to change quickly and become more exclusive to access. Golf courses are enjoying space alongside some of the country’s top real estate and many officials are stumped trying to keep up with modifying courses and enabling population expansion. Yet, people still demand more golf destinations.

The heightened interest has caused a number of courses to create interesting and highly difficult holes on which to play.

Yet, Singapore’s stunning vistas, lush wildlife and some of the world’s top courses means that more and more people will visit the country just to play on the same green as some of the sport’s top legends. the back nine of AUGUSTA ♦ backninepublishing.com ♦ 25

how memories affect y o u r g o l f ga me

en Hogan often said that when he played his best golf, he would B address the ball and as if the shot had

already happened. Jack Nicklaus was absolutely convinced that he had never missed a putt from inside three feet on the back nine of a major championship. Tiger Woods in his own book said, “The secret to the mental game is the ability to instantly recall past success and then let go of failure.”

And the common thread running through these comments from three of the game’s all-time greatest champions? The power of memory to cement thoughts and feelings associated with ultimate performance.

My guess is that if you think back to the last round of discount burner 2 Irons you played, you will very quickly relate to the power your mind has over your performance. When you stand over a putt and you just know that you are going to make it, or (and rather more frequently) when you look at a certain shot and all you can see is the out of bounds running down the right side of the fairway... and guess where you hit it?

Welcome then, to the wonderful world of your MEMORY and the way it influences your performance. We underestimate the power and the effect our memories have on our golf at our peril. In fact, I would go as far as to say that the way that you utilize

your memory will be one of the critical keys to your future as a golfer. In my own experience, with some of the players I have worked with over the last few years it has become very clear to me that the way golfers use their memory is very different. The greats like Ben Hogan, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods have worked it out. Recently, the field of neuroscience has begun to question how memory works and one of the most exciting developments has been the suggestion that we can actually take an active role in programming the way our memory functions in terms of our golfing experiences.

Just how important a discovery could that be? What the scientists are telling us is that if we re-visit a certain memory of a past event, while we obviously cannot change the past event what we can do is change our interpretation of it. So if you lost a golf tournament, you will always have lost the tournament, but what you can change is your interpretation of the meaning of that defeat. And that is significant.

If the meaning of that defeat is stored as the worst thing that has ever happened, then chances are that your unconscious mind will go to work and protect you from that experience ever happening again. So, the selfsabotage kicks in and finds ways of getting you to AVOID that situation.

Poor performance is a great way of avoiding winning!

the Most Common Golfing Equipment

or a person to thoroughly enjoy any sport, it would be best for him Fto have the proper equipment. Golf is

just one of those sports that require a person to know the different kinds of golfing equipment if a person wants to completely understand the game.

Basics #1 - Golf Attire All the golf ranges have their own set of golf dress codes. A person cannot just enter a golf range with whatever attire and expect that he would be permitted to play. Though the dress code depends on the golf range, the universal set of golf attire is a clean collared polo shirt and golf pants. A golfer should avoid wearing jeans and cargo pants to the field. Rubber shoes are also not allowed inside, as they tend to ruin the grass. A good pair of golf shoes is highly recommended.

Basics #2 – Golf Ball The golf ball is a small ball that is covered with dimples. It is typically white, though there are also golf balls available in bright neon colors, to make it easier for the golfer to locate.

This is one piece of equipment that has strict regulations. For example, golf balls are not allowed to be used until they have passed the test of approval by the R&A and the US Golf Association.

There are two common types of golf balls: recreational and advanced.

Basics #3 - Golf Club This is used to hit the ball. In a regular game, the maximum number of clubs a person is allowed to carry is 14.

It is important to know the different kinds of golf clubs as each type results in different flight distance and degree of loft. The basic kinds of clubs are putters, wedges, irons, woods and the hybrid club.

Optional #1 - Golf Tee This equipment is used to elevate the ball from the ground and provide an easier shot for the player. It is a tiny spike, which has a cup at the top where the ball is placed. It is pushed into the ground and can only be used at the start of the round.

Optional #2 - Ball Marker This object is used to mark the exact spot the ball landed, just in case the player has to temporarily remove the ball. Though players are not allowed to move their ball, there are still exceptions to the rule. One exception is when the ball lies directly on the putting line of the opponent and needs to be temporarily moved out of the way.

Optional #2 - Golf Bag This is an elongated bag mainly for golf clubs storage. It is characterized by a number of pockets at the side for additional golf equipment compartments. There are different bags depending on how it would be carried.

There are shoulder bags, two-wheeled cart bags, and bags for golf carts.

There are a lot more golf equipment. A player does not need all of it. It would be best for him to identify the optional equipment that he would be actually using to help improve his game.

praCtice makes perfect

ave you been trying to improve H your golf swing but to no avail?

Just like what most of the greatest players have said, “A golf swing is like a fingerprint, no two are alike.”

If you have been watching some of the world’s best players and if you have read the biographies or golf instruction books of some of golf’s legendary players and instructors, you will notice each has a style of their own.

One of the best players to have ever played the game was Ben Hogan. Having won more than 60 professional tournaments in his career including all of golf’s four major tournaments, you would not believe he had a golf swing problem which is known to golfers as “hooking.”

Hooking is when the golf ball tends to veer towards the left side of the fairway. Hogan, who is actually left handed as he has stated in one of his books, played with his right hand and used a strong grip. This was theorized as the reason for his hooking the ball.

To solve this problem, Hogan developed a swing which would be known as “The Secret.” Revealed in several magazines some years back and which were based on observations done while Hogan was actually playing, the ball striker’s swing consisted of using a slightly weaker grip, opening the clubface during the takeaway using the wrists and then using his right knee as a trigger to initiate the downswing.

This swing is now known the world over as the “Hogan Fade.”

The golfer who instilled the importance of practicing has written two golf instruction books, Power Golf and Five Lessons, the legendary golfer talks about the basic essentials of having a consistent and good golf swing. In the book the golfer also known as “The Hawk” explains the importance of how to hold the club the right way, how to address the ball correctly and how to swing the club from the takeaway to the follow through. You can also now catch his golf instruction online, by typing “Ben Hogan’s Timeless Tips” or “Ben Hogan Swing Keys.”

Golfing equipment also play an important role in playing good golf.

Over the years a lot of modifications have been developed in terms of golf clubs, putters, golf balls and other golf training aids.

Unlike before where golfers could only check their swing if they took a video of themselves hitting the ball, advance technology has made it possible to analyze a golfer’s swing inch by inch.

In this way, a golfer’s bad habit could be easily corrected by providing the appropriate golf training aids and golfing equipment.

From putting green to golf swing trainers to practice nets for the garage and a whole lot more to choose from, you can be sure your golf game would improve tremendously if you keep using these devices consistently.

Take it from Ben Hogan the golfer who has been tagged by his peers as the guy who gave the word “practice” a whole new meaning since he was known to have trained the most among all of them during their time.

Practice really does make it perfect!

close your eyes to make more putts

ears ago, I played in the Y Heather Farr Charity for the Blind tournament in Sun City, Ariz. I played with an English gentleman who had been blind since birth.

It was quite fascinating to watch him play, especially when he was preparing to hit a shot. His wife would walk him to the ball and help him set his club to the ball. He would then slide his hand down the shaft of the TaylorMade R1 Driver to feel the distance from the ball. It was an amazing thing to watch, and really opened my eyes to all the tools we golfers have to improve our feel. There are many senses we often take for granted.

While the Englishman did this routine for all his shots, he did something a little different with his putting that I think is something we all can learn from. I noticed that instead of walking him directly to the golf ball, the Englishman’s wife would take him to the hole and let him walk backward toward the direction of his ball for about five or six steps, then proceed to set up to the ball. After about four holes, I asked him why he would walk backward from the hole and what this did for his putting.

He explained to me that it allowed him to feel the way the green was

sloped close to the hole and he could only feel it when he walked backward as it would move his body as he walked. It was amazing how close he came to the hole with his putts. He shot a 92 with TaylorMade RocketBladez Irons that had much to do with his ability to putt!

I have not only used this method to “see” which way the ball will break to the hole for my own game, but have passed it along to many of my students. The reason why the golfer only needs to walk back about five or six steps from the hole is that the ball is slowing down at this point and will be most affected by the slope of the green then.

The next time out on the putting green, try this little exercise.

Stand facing the hole, then walk backward, allowing your body to follow the slope of the green.

If you feel yourself going downhill to the right, you’ll know that you’ll be putting uphill from left to right because you’re putting in the opposite direction that you’re walking. If you have a tough time seeing or feeling any slope, you can try closing your eyes. You’ll begin to notice the subtle breaks and make more putts every time.

choosing the perfect golf bag

I

t can be difficult to choose the perfect golf bag, considering the variety of choices available to you. It is crucial that you keep your golf equipment protected, taking into account the money that you’ve spent when purchasing your equipment.

When you are choosing among the many different kinds of golf bag, you need to take into consideration the price, the size, the number of dividers inside the bag, the strap, the weight, the color and the material. There are quite a few details to take into account, so looking for the ideal bag can be quite difficult.

However, you must also take into consideration your personal preference. There are bags made to fit in a golf cart and there are bags made specifically for walking purposes.

If you often put your bag on the ground, then the standing golf bags are best for you. They come with one or two straps – you should pick the one that provides the most comfort when carrying the bag.

You should not feel discomfort when carrying your bag.

If you frequently put your bag on the ground, then the standing golf bags are a great choice for you.

Standing bags are also equipped with lightweight and sturdy legs.

You can just lay it to the ground and it will instantly stand on its own. With its three legs, standing diagonally becomes feasible.

The best thing about standing bags is that they are still great carry bags. Stand bags can be found with a few different features, such as a cooler, valuables pouch and an included putter.

A maximum of 14 clubs can fit in a carry golf bag. Its space for other

The Back Nine of AUGUSTA ♦ advertising to move your business forward ♦ 36

golf accessories like balls and tees are quite limited, but it’s enough to get you through 18 holes. Since golf clubs are normally heavy, those with back issues and other physical limitations must think hard before selecting a carry bag. People who prefer this kind of bag usually choose it due to the straps that make it comfortable to carry across the golf course.

Those who prefer using golf carts must choose a golf cart bag. This bag provides a bit more flexibility for golf accessory storage and organization. This is also best for individuals who don’t want to carry their bags throughout the game.

Professionals often choose tour bags, which are often leather-made.

These golf bags are expensive, but they are sturdy and will comfortably fit the necessary clubs and accessories.

Regardless of your preferences, make sure you are not sacrificing comfort. Find out if the linings of the bag are well-secured so that your bag will not break open under pressure. All in all, the perfect golf bag is one that fits your individual needs.

For the simplest way to keep score, just count the number of strokes you’ve taken on the hole just completed, and write that number down in the box corresponding to that hole on the scorecard. At the end of each nine holes, tally up the strokes for your front nine and back nine totals, respectively, then add up those two numbers for your 18-hole score. the back nine of AUGUSTA ♦ backninepublishing.com ♦ 39
