Instantly slash your golf score by creating perfect impact!
Golf Etiquette
By: Jeff Austin
The rulebook has a lot in it that you should know, but you dont have to memorize it, keep a copy in your golf bag and your will always be ready.
The way you should act on a golf course however, are things that you must know and observe.
Golf is special because of the many customs including good sportsmanship that go with the game.
Here are some of the most important ones you need to observe while on the green:
*Dont stand where a person putting can see you or your shadow
*No noise making, no opening and closing your Velcro glove or jingle the change in your pocket, and NEVER accidentally cough during someones shot.
*Dont applaud a miss even if it means you or your team now have an advantage, this is extremely rude.
*Always mark you ball, use a ball mark (given away in pro shops) a coin or rock are also acceptable, anything that doesnt move. Put it behind the ball on the extension of your target line.
Ask a player whose line is on your mark if he would like it moved and which way.
Put the heel of your putter next to the mark and place the mark just outside the toe. When the player is finished, move your mark back, if you forget it is a penalty.
*Watch where you walk on the green, know where the balls are and dont walk on their line or it extension on the far side of the hole.
*Walk well around the hole unless you are tapping a ball in or picking it up out of the cup.
*Dont drag your feet on the green, it damages the grass and causes spike marks that cant be repaired until you have finished putting.
*It is against the rules to give advice, except to your partner, so be careful what you say after you have holed out.
*Dont be a slowpoke, you dont have to rush but shouldnt take to long either.

Thoughts On Golf
Torque It Up!
A good backswing creates torque and is achieved by rotating the body away from the ground using the feet as an anchor. Except for unusually flexible players, the knees, hips, core, back and shoulders should all be used to create torque. Once you get the feel of creating leverage against the ground, your power will increase significantly.

Try A Premium Driver Shaft
The shafts that come with modern drivers are better than ever, but if you want to maximize your performance, check out an aftermarket model.

Yardage Has Been Lost
The downside of this shot-making decision is that yardage has been lost and, therefore, a possible birdie opportunity has been missed because there is still a fair amount of ground to be made up before the putting surface can be reached. The solution is to hit the ball so that it bends around the trees at the right moment and makes a greater distance down the fairway, resulting in an approach shot much nearer the hole. The skill called for here is to draw the ball, hitting it initially on a path to the right before it curves round to the left, avoiding the trees and leaving a more desirable lie.

To start with a proven ball position. Moving a golf ball even two inches forward or back in your stance can make a great deal of difference in shot consistency. Start with the ball a couple of inches inside the left heel. After you master this consistent ball position, you can experiment with other ball positions. However, a ball too far to the front of your stance will increase the chances of a slice by encouraging an outside-to-inside swing. A ball too far back in the stance will make it difficult to get the clubface closed by impact and may cause a push or a push slice.

To develop the best possible grip for you. Every golfer swings and grips the club differently. Over 90 percent of golfers use the Vardon or overlapping grip. Players with smaller hands sometimes find the interlocking grip, with the little finger of the right hand interlocked with the index finger of the left hand, works best for them. Players with smaller should use a baseball type grip.
