Golf Improvement Weekly

“I hate this game! I hate it! Why do I play this stupid game? I quit - I’m never playing again!” Henry blasted himself. I heard Henry as he was walking to his car and wondered why he was so down on himself. Henry is a hard worker, I see him at least once a week hitting balls on the practice range. I’ll be going to the first tee with a Golf Made Simple class to do our on-course Instruction and there will be Henry banging balls on the practice range - one after another – “looking for the magic”.

Here we go again with Driving Accuracy.  As this may come as a shock for any Golfer that has been diligent in trying to keep their golf ball on the short grass – Driving Accuracy when it comes to simply hitting Fairways is the most overrated stat in all sports. Download Standard Podcasts

Come on, tell me - Who’s Your Caddie? I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard a Golfer tell me that they played better when they’ve had a chance to play 18 holes with a Caddie. Why is this? And how can you incorporate these same strategies and techniques into your game all the time? Download Standard Podcasts

More than a few Golfers have written to me asking if I could write an article on “how to keep my poise and play golf with very slow Golfers”. This seems to be an issue that affects a lot of Golfers and your ability to keep your rhythm going on the golf course. Download Standard Podcasts

As much as you, I, Tiger and Andrew Buckle want to believe that we have the ability to hit better golf shots every golf swing we take — reality says it’s not going to happen that way as much as we’d like it to. That dang reality is always getting in the way of a satisfying golf score! ‘Andrew Buckle? Hey, who’s Andrew Buckle?’ Download Standard Podcasts

Should your wrists be used when chipping around the green?  Most Golfers advocate not using any wrists – though some Golfers do encourage a limited use of the hands and wrists.  So the question that many Golfers often ask themselves – “How should I do it?  Wrists or no wrists?” Download Standard Podcasts

The golf course may be the one place that we can all congregate and be on the same side – supporting to each other after bad shots and cheering one another after fabulous drives. Download Standard Podcasts

What is it about the sand bunker shot that scares the pants off some Golfers? Download Standard Podcasts

Why is it that 7 out of 8 Golfers that aren’t happy with their Driver have the ‘problem’ of slicing the golf ball? Download Standard Podcasts

The idea that golf needs to be as complicated as many Golfers are making it is a frustrating/confusing concept to me. Every week, I hear of a new, groundbreaking concept that someone has come up with that’ll help all Golfers to hit the golf ball farther and straighter. I’ve heard about new grips, swing plane concepts, weight transfer systems, along with stuff I don’t want to even mention that supposedly will make your swing automatic. Download Standard Podcasts
