There are some basic elements of the golf swing that the golfer should use as a mental checklist when taking a shot. The first element is the body's alignment toward the target. Stand five to ten feet behind the ball, with the ball directly between your body and the desired target. Locate guidance targets on the ground (leaves, blades of grass, dirt, etc.) inches in front and behind the golf ball that should be on a direct line with where you...more

It's a beautiful day for golf. Before heading out to the course, it is important to go through a checklist of items you will need to ensure an enjoyable round. Before leaving your home, it is important to check the latest weather conditions so you can dress appropriately and bring any necessary items to deal with adverse conditions. On a day that conditions are forecasted to be clear and comfortable, it is appropriate to wear a cotton polo and cotton knit pants. Some players may choose to wear walking shorts if they are allowed by the golf club. Some sort of hat is always recommended to protect the player's head from the sun, and golfers should always wear sunscreen. On a day when rain is anticipated, an umbrella and rain suit is desirable. A golfer's bag should be equipped with certain necessities, besides the clubs and balls that may make the day more comfortable. These items would include cotton towels to wipe away sweat and mud, a rain suit or an extra shirt, a spare pair of socks, and perhaps a snack and sport drinks. Also, don't forget your golf shoes.

Although the primary concern for a golfer when picking out what to wear is comfort and functionality, golf etiquette asks that golfers dress a certain way. It is generally accepted that a golfer should have a nice appearance on public golf courses; and at private golf courses, following a dress code may actually be required. A man once said, "A round of golf is no day at the beach, so you shouldn't dress like it is." The message seems clear, and here are a few things to consider when dressing for golf. Footwear - Although casual shoes are acceptable, they are not very functional on a golf course. A golfer should choose a pair of golf shoes that are manufactured with soft spikes on the soles to improve footing on the ground. Today, golfers can choose between classic wingtip of saddle shoes, casual or tennis-style golf shoes, or even golf sandals. Golfers should always wear cotton socks, and may want to keep an extra pair inside his or her golf bag. Pants - A pair of slacks, khakis or cotton blend pants are generally accepted.
