Golf Instruction - Finding The Perfect Swing
from: Blair MacGregor
When someone first makes the decision take up the game of golf, and is looking for the fundamentals of golf instruction, one of the first questions becomes "Where the heck am I going to practice?"
In most cases, the best place for a beginner to refine their golfing skills is at a driving range. It's an easy place to examine
your swing and begin your golfing career, without having to worry about expensive golf course memberships and losing equipment.
At a driving range, you can hit a load of golf balls anywhere within
reason and nobody around will mind if your shots are completely off the mark.
Most driving ranges also have practice putting greens,
chipping areas, and sand bunkers; all excellent practice
areas for the beginning golfer. It's also a great way
to brush up on nearly every aspect of your game.
If you feel your golf swing is out of shape and would like
to practice in private, there's always the option
of practicing your swing in your own backyard. But
when you are in your yard, it's probably best to leave your golf
balls in your bag. They are best reserved for the open
areas where you have room to drive, without taking off your neighbor's head with a golf ball.
When you feel ready to play a game, don't try to
jump into the deep end by booking the next flight to St.
Andrews. You will get there eventually, but you've got to get some practice in first.
Try some par-3 courses; they usually consist of 9 holes.
This is perfect for practice games because you can practice
your swing and get in some heavy putting practice. Don't
feel discouraged starting on a par-3; even the best of the best on the PGA Tour had to start somewhere.
You must hone your skills to become a master of the game
and the only way to do that is through practice.
Now, if you think you're ready for the 18 hole experience, ask
for some recommendations, because you'll need a lengthy
course but without all the obstacles that can ruin any golfer's
experience. Look around for the best lengthy, wide open
courses. These courses will provide you with the most
enjoyable experience while boosting your confidence and
improving your overall game.
