Expert Author: Charlie G Wallace | Category: Golf Practice is absolutely crucial for the golf beginner as it is for the golfer who has been playing golf for some time. Golf is such a technical and precise game that you will never improve unless you play and practice regularly. You only have to look at the pro tour golfers. Take Tiger Wood for example. He has been out of the game for about 9 months and although he wasn't practicing golf for some of that time to avoid aggravating his injury, it is quite obvious that he had been working on his golf fitness.
Expert Author: Charlie G Wallace | Category: Golf Are the obstacles to starting to play golf for women greater than for men? Is there a perception amongst women that golf is elitist and mainly for men? Is it more difficult for women to get good advice on how to start playing golf? Maybe. I confess I don't have the answers to these questions. What is true is that anyone starting something new probably needs to challenge some personal assumptions before they start and have some clear guidance on how to proceed. This is as true for men as it is for women.
Expert Author: Charlie G Wallace | Category: Golf Try to get to the local driving range once or twice a week between lessons and test out your swing by hitting some balls. DON'T just smash them off the tee. Think about the tempo of your swing and aim your shots at a target. Use different clubs - from the driver through to the sand or pitching wedge.
Expert Author: Charlie G Wallace | Category: Golf People often ask me what are the first things they should do to start to learn to play golf and my response is always the same. Beg, borrow or buy a cheap putter and a pitching wedge for around $12-$15 each. Get 20-25 golf balls from your friends, a local golf club or a cheap sports goods outlet. That's all you need - one putter, one club and a bag of balls.
Expert Author: Charlie G Wallace | Category: Golf As someone interested in starting to play golf, my advice to you is – don’t buy a set of golf clubs straight away. There is plenty of time to do that and apart from anything else, you may decide you don’t enjoy playing golf and you’ll be saddled with a set of clubs that you might not be able to get rid of.
Expert Author: Charlie G Wallace | Category: Golf If you have never played golf before the prospect of taking that initial step maybe daunting. Where do you go to get the information you need to learn to play golf? What golf equipment do you need? Who should you talk to? It can be very stressful understanding what to do.
