 | With the freezing weather now taking hold the best way to ensure you keep warm when out on the course is to wear a base layer. An Under Armour ColdGear mock will do just the job. Featuring a double-sided fabric that wicks moisture from the skin and circulates body heat, it will keep you warm without weighing you down, and ensure you can swing freely without being restricted by bulky clothing. SSP: £34.99 For more information on Under Armour's coldgear mock please click here. |
Would you like to improve your putting from the comfort of your own home?
The best putters adopt a consistent stance that involves bending forward so their eye line is directly above the ball thus encouraging good aim of the putter face.
Using a wall in your house, take a putting stance so that the toe of the putter is touching the skirting board. Carefully bend forward until your head is touching the wall, ensure you are well balanced with your body weight through the laces. Practice your stroke with a focus on keeping the head gently pressing against the wall and constant balance. This drill will train you to make a more consistent, stable stroke and hole more putts.
Note. Allow the putter stroke to follow a gentle arc, not dead straight along the wall.
As ever if you would like to discuss any part of your game please don't hestiate to drop by the shop.
High tech launch monitors have taught us that the most powerful tee shots with the most carry, feature a high launch angle with low backspin. This is especially true during the winter when ground conditions are soft and there is little run on the ball.
To achieve this type of shot and maximise your distance the ball should be struck with a rising swing. The set up position is key. Aim to position the ball opposite the heel of the front foot and tilt the upper body slightly away from target.
During the backswing generate power by turning your left shoulder behind the ball and on the through swing stay behind the ball until after impact. Enjoy watching the ball fly long and straight.
Equipment check: If you are not carrying the ball far enough consider a driver with more loft or a more flexible shaft.
It is a proven fact that proper physical preparation can improve not only your health, but will also take strokes off your score and help you to enjoy your golf.
During the winter period when the days are shorter and colder the opportunities to play the course are limited, but that doesn’t mean you have to forget about your game.
Use this period to prepare for next season, and what better way to prepare than to get yourself into shape and fighting fit for golf?
A simple series of stretches and strengthening exercises can go a long way to improving your flexibility, which it turn will aid your swing and improve your core strength.
By following simple exercises on the Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) website you can prepare for the golfing season from the comfort of your own home.
