How to Adjust Your Golf Game

Here are some basic tips and techniques to help you adjust your golf game and improve your

score.

Putting

• A large percentage of your score comes from putting.

• Adjusting your set up position can go a long way towards improving your score.

• Make sure your alignment is set so the putter hits the ball squarely.

• Grip the putter more with your palms while keeping a light grip pressure.

Putting

• Stand directly over the ball, with your eyes lined up inside of your target line.

• This will help to prevent pushing or pulling the ball during the put.

• Lean the shaft of the putter a little forward to the left and make the put.

Chip Shots

• Chip shots are used when you've missed the green and you need to get the ball near the hole.

• Start with a narrower stance than you would use with short irons.

• Positioning your hands just ahead of the golf ball when you begin your swing will give your swing an angle that will get the golf ball into the air.

• Make your backswing short, and swing through the ball with a steady rhythm.

Hooking and Slicing

• Having the right stance will help in preventing hooking and slicing.

• Place your feet in a wide stance in accordance with the club you're using.

• Use a relaxed posture while keeping your body movement balanced.

• Practice keeping the club correctly in the swing plane. • The club should be parallel to the target line at the top

of the swing. • Deviation on either side of the target line may result in

a slice or a hook.

Driving

• Start with a good stance, with feet about shoulder width apart.

• Bend the knees and bend forward until the arms are hanging straight down with the club directly under the chin.

• Start your back swing smooth and slow, keeping your forward arm straight to provide a complete extension.

• The distance you'll get will be determined by the length of your backswing.

• Follow through with the forward swing right down the target line while concentrating on posture, balance, and your swing rhythm.

Practice

• Increase your confidence and improve your game by practicing basic golf tips.

• Make adjustments to your swing to determine what works best for you.

• Establish a complete approach to golf by becoming proficient in all the aspects of the game.

• Adjust your basic skills by following a guide or system that works well for you to better your performance.
