My Tip of the Year |
Beginners - DON'T try to hit the ball too hard.Practice a smooth swing to get a clean contact with the ball. Swing through the ball, not at it. It will go further than you think. |

Fuzzy Zoeller - Move up to move on |
Amateur Golfers all think they are going to hit their
best possible shot but the truth is that they rarely do and so often they are well short
of the target. So change the club up. If you think you need to hit a five iron to the
green then hit a four instead. How many times do amateurs go through the green with a
decently hit shot? Hardly ever, in my experience. |
Peter Heiniger - Chip and run |
A saviour when it comes to saving shots around the green, it is very similar to playing a long putt with a slightly open stance. To help with the feeling in a chip and run shot, imagine that you're trying to hit the ball under a bench. This will help the ball stay low and continue to run. A seven or six iron is preferred for this shot. |
Tom Watson - Putting |
Accelerating through the ball is a vital factor for consistant putting. Most putting problems occur when a player decelerates through impact. That makes it hard to keep the clubface square. |
