HOW TO GET STARTED PLAYING GOLF

by Team Reed Foundation | Jul 22, 2022 | Golf, sports, Team Reed Foundation

Learning how to play golf can be very complex for the casual observer. There are so many rules and clubs involved that it can be hard to keep up with the changes. New players should develop their abilities and skills to become successful beginners, and here are the basics to help you do just that.

LEARN THE FOUNDATIONS Before a person even hits a golf ball, they should have a good idea of what they’re doing. They should also follow a set of routines to improve their posture, grip, and stance. These routines can help them repeat their shots each time they hit a ball.

GETTING THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT Before a person can start playing golf, they should also be prepared with the necessary equipment that they’ll use on the course. This should include a set of golf balls, a golf glove, and a ball marker. Having all of these items in your bag will help make sure that you’re ready to go when you hit your first shot.

GET THE BALL IN THE AIR One of the new players’ most significant challenges when getting the ball in the air is hitting the ground consistently. This is because, according to the concept of getting the ball in the air,

they need to hit the ground to feel like they’re throwing a ball. Doing so will help them launch beautiful shots.

EXAMINE HOW FAR YOUR CLUBS GO One of the most essential skills new players should learn is how far their clubs go. Even though some people think they’re incapable of keeping track of their clubs’ distances, it’s still important to keep track of this. Write all your clubs down on paper and hit a couple of shots consistently.

Knowing this will help improve your consistency on the course.

UNDERSTAND THE RULES AND ETIQUETTE Aside from their skills, new players should also be aware of the importance of keeping their ball marks clean. Having a good idea of the rules and etiquette will help them avoid making costly mistakes. Some of the most common rules that new players should learn include how to drop the ball, how to take relief from an out-of-bounds lie, and what to do if a ball lands in a hazard.
