Ways To Improve You Golf Grip

Many things can cause a slice in the world of golf. But
nine times out of ten, it is caused by a poor grip. One way
to fix this is to make sure that when you are looking down,
you can see the first two knuckles of your left hand and
a ‘V’ shape between your thumb and forefinger.

Many golfers have a habit of gripping the club too tightly,
which often causes unnecessary tension. It can also make
you hit the top of the ball. To prevent this, you should

check your right side grip; and your arm and shoulder
tension before each swing. You should sense some mild
tension. Remember that light muscles are better than
tight muscles.

One common error golfers make when putting is failing to
coordinate between wrists; each wrist ends up moving in a
different direction, when they should be working as a unit.

If you experience this problem, try using a cross hand
grip. To get the grip right, place your left hand on the
grip where the right hand would usually be; and then put
the thumb on your right hand level with the top of the
thumb on your left hand. This will feel odd at first,
but it will force the hands to work together, which is
what counts when it comes to putting.

These are just a few tips that will greatly help you
improve your game by increasing your mastery
over commonly used golf grips.

Golf: How to Warm up

Posted in Golf on November 3rd, 2006

Before you start a round of golf, it is important that
you remember to warm up for the match. People warm up
for their chosen sports all the time, as it reduces the
risk of injury; golf is no different. By the time
professionals step up to the first tee, they are fully
prepared to give their best from the first swing onward.

To get a good exercise round in, you will need to warm up;
that will mean getting to the course early. You may need
to take care of things in the golf shop or anything else
that you have planned, but you must not feel rushed to get
all these things done just so you can get a good warm up
in. Get there early and get everything done so that you
can get a nice exercise session done in time.

Putting is a big part of golf and as such, you will need
to do some warming up before you start putting. It is the
slowest and smoothest of all strokes in golf, which means
you will need a different warm up. So set some golf balls
down, starting  putting; and you should be ready to tackle
any greens that come your way when golfing.

Stretching can improve your game radically, especially if
you stretch properly. It will also help you avoid injuries,
which are often the result of tense muscles.

Time your warm up so that you will make it to the first
tee in time with everyone else. You do not want to stand
there for a few minutes after you just finished warming up.
If you do have a delay, stand by the side of the tee,
make slow swings, and stretch so that you can stay loose.

If you choose not to warm up before a game, then you are
starting the game with a severe handicap.
