Can A Golf Tip Online Help Your Game

A golf tip online can save you hours out of your schedule, but can it really help your game? With more and more people getting Internet connections, golfers are flocking to the Internet in hopes to find tips, techniques and even total golf performance programs to save their golf game.

Tip: When addressing each putt, it is important to have your hands slightly ahead of the line between your head and the ball. Maintain your stance while swinging your club.

There are many concerns with taking a golf tip online and hoping it will be the silver bullet to your game. Always consider the source of this golf tip. If you read an article like this one, or find some resource online, make sure to read the resource box at the bottom of the article.

Tip: When striking the golf ball, make sure the club's face is square with the ball. Correct club and ball alignment assures the ball will be propelled straight ahead.

Usually the article or resource will have a mini-bio of the person who authored the information with a link to either their site or some kind of indepth explanation of who the person is and what their credentials are.

Tip: Before starting the round, check the brand and number of the ball you will be playing, and share that information with your golfing partners. This helps disambiguate multiple balls that land near each other, so that no one has to take penalty shots.

Any golfer no matter what their ability or certifications can post a golf tip online via website, blog or article. On the Internet this is rampant! There are more so-called gurus than ever before. Every golfer probably has some valuable information they have to give, but if they are not qualified to give it, they should probably keep it for their own game.

Tip: If you don't have much practice in, concentrate more on the short game. Develop your ability to put and chip balls.

With the Internet turning into more of a “pay-for-content” vehicle, there are many qualified people who are putting valuable golf tips online, along with reports, ebooks and even complete membership sites like my Golf-Trainer.com site that has been on the net for over 5 years now. Since then, I have seen many imitation sites and products, which is one huge drawback of the web.

Tip: You cannot swing properly without having a good grip on your club. By having a solid grip, you put yourself in the best position to work the club in order to strike a wide variety of shots.

Web surfers would never know what reports, ebooks and membership sites are the most credible and original in format and effectiveness. I am always hesitant with reading any golf tip online until I thoroughly look into the person behind the product. How long have they been in their profession? What successes have they helped create? And if you can personally talk to several people who have purchased and benefited from their products?

Tip: Before you go to the course, be sure to choose the one with the best deals by doing some research on discounts. Check the promotions section of their website, call the pro shop personally, and even check the sports section of your newspaper to see if there are any special discounts or coupons.

In researching these products and programs, read all the copy on the site. You will read some pretty amazing stuff that’s hard to swallow. These claims seem impossible when you look at how long they’ve been on the net and how many so-called golfers they’ve helped. Just do some math and you’ll find that these numbers are most likely false.

Tip: Try making the next round more interesting by offering a reward. Try creating a prize of lunch or drinks to spice up the game, and increasing what's on the line with every putt versus individual score.

The bottom line with any golf tip online is if it does in fact help your game. If it does, you will most likely tell other golfing friends about it and the website and business will be successful just from word-of-mouth.

Tip: When you are swinging, you may notice a slip in your hand-to-club connection. This may or may not be caused by an old golf glove.

And one last piece of advice. Any person or business giving golf tips online should be reachable. You should easily be able to find their contact information, including phone number. When I answer my phone, people are shocked! I ask them why, and they say they didn’t think there was a “real person” behind it.

Tip: The best way to improve your overall golf game is to improve your stance. Your position can influence how far the ball goes.

That’s a sad situation that shows the skepticism of web visitors. If you have to look hard for the contact information, I would not recommend using or purchasing any golf tips or programs online.

I don’t want to deter you, but just do a little homework when searching for a golf tip online.
