Shot dispersion and where to aim.

Traded in my golf spikes for hiking boots this week.

Hole-in-one tries today!! No luck at Diamond head golf course in Hot Springs, AR.

Hole-in-one tries today. No Luck.

Practice to different targets. Don’t just hit the same club, over and over to the same target. That isn’t what we do in the course. Practice like you play.

Alter your practice. Try to hit to different targets with each swing. This is quality practice. Takes longer to do, but will help you play better on the course. If you just hit the same club over and over to the same target, that is not realistic to how we actually play the game. That is quantity practice and is needed if learning a new movement or skill, but once the skill is acquired, switch to quality practice and hit one shot to one target and then switch clubs and targets. Use your full routine and try to simulate what you do on the golf course.

When it is a tight lie, soft and muddy, not a lot of green to work with. Shallow out and hook it, so you don’t cut across it and stick it in the mud!!

2 in 1 day!! Are you kidding me? Two hole-in-ones in one day!!! That is crazy!!

When your “in between clubs”, take the longer one, choke up 1/2 inch and take a normal, committed swing. ,

Choo Choo Putting Tip. Line it up and let it go!!
