Practice makes Perfect!

Joel Tadman, Instruction Editor, 02 February 2012 16:55

There are two types of practice, both of which are crucial in transferring perfectly executed shots from the range to the golf course more often. The first involves working on your movements and improving your technique while the other involves simulating game-like conditions and making practice harder than play as much as possible – working on the routines and the ...

How to stop fatting your chips

Noel Rousseau, 02 February 2012 14:56

If you suffer from fatting your chip shots, one reason for it could be that you are focusing too intently on the ball during the swing. It may sound daft, but diverting more of your attention away from the ball actually has a positive effect on the strike of your chip shots, as TG Elite Pro Noel Rousseau explains in ...

Tiptoes pitching drill

Gareth Johnston, 02 February 2012 14:52

One of the reasons you may strike pitch shots poorly is because you don’t achieve enough body rotation in your swing. A great drill to increase the amount of turn through the ball and improve your angle of attack is to hit some shots with the right foot up on its toes, as TG Elite Pro Gareth Johnston explains in ...

Understand ‘parallel’ alignment

Adrian Fryer, 02 February 2012 13:26

Many amateurs think they’ve got to aim their body and club at the target but in actual fact the shoulders, hips and toes need to be aimed parallel left of the target, the two lines should never converge. When you aim the body at the target the club will usually aim right of it as a result, for a right-handed ...

Pitching Sharpie drill

Adrian Fryer, 27 January 2012 16:18

Golfers that thin their pitch shots often make a conscious effort to keep their head down to stop this from happening. But the head actually needs to move with the body in order to strike pitching correctly and accurately. A great drill to improve your pitching consistency is to place a pen in your mouth. Intrigued? Then watch the video ...

Skid don’t dig when chipping

Noel Rousseau, 27 January 2012 16:13

Successful results when chipping, especially from a tight lie, rely on us using the bounce on our wedges correctly. By this, we mean gliding the club underneath the ball using the loft on the club to get the ball in the air. So in your pre-shot routine, try to both hear and feel your wedge skidding along the ground. The ...

Cure chipping yips

Noel Rousseau, 27 January 2012 16:09

One of the main causes of the chipping yips is when the arms and body become locked trying to over-control the action. This increases tension and has a detrimental effect of the strike. As TG Elite Pro Noel Rousseau explains in this golf video tip, the key to curing the chipping yips is to have a free-flowing action. This practice ...

Combine a picture with a feeling

Adrian Fryer, 27 January 2012 09:17

Research has shown that learning becomes up to 80 per cent more effective if you combine a picture with a feeling. You can optimise your time working on your movements by better understanding where your body is in space. This also increases the chance of the skill being retained so it’s well worth incorporating this in your future practice sessions. ...

Baseball slice fix

Steven Orr, 10 January 2012 16:04

When the clubhead works up and down on a neutral plane during the swing, that increases your chance of hitting the ball squarely with the clubhead working down the target line. The slice occurs when the player applies a glancing blow to the ball with the club working across the target line from out-to-in. As Steven Orr explains in this ...

Set up for launch

Steven Orr, 10 January 2012 16:00

Your typical driver comes with around 10 degrees of loft on the clubface but if you look at the stats from the top Tours, players actually launch the ball at around 15 degrees. So how do they acquire this extra height? The answer is that they set up much differently with their driver than they do with their irons, as ...
