subject: How can I improve my golf swing? [print this page] The question is, how can you improve your golf?
There are so many different methods thrown at us golfers. Whether our goal is breaking 100 for the first time as a high handicapper, breaking 80 consistently for the improving golfer or increasing our chances of hitting the magical hole in one, we golfers are all striving to improve our golf.
From my experiences at golf and I've had some great successes, from winning prizes in local competitions, breaking 80 at least four times in stroke play competitions ... to scoring a hole in one twice, the second one coming just this last month.
All golfers want more. We want the best clubs, the best balls, and we are all desperate to continue the improvement process. I, for one, believe in the following methods for improvement:
Finding a swing technique that you can replicate consistently
Finding the right equipment that suits your game; including custom fitting your clubs to suit you i.e stiff flex shafts, degree of loft etc
Practising whenever you can ... even in the house without a club or ball!
Having a pre-shot routine that you carry out prior to every shot, regardless of how the last shot went ... we all hit bad shots!
And above all, playing with what you have on the day; by this I mean if you turn up on the day of the Club Championship with a slight fade when you normally hit a draw, DO NOT try and fix it there and then. Play with it.
