Golf Equipment Isn't Working

Golf equipment doesn't work? Did that catch your attention? I hope so. Now keep reading.

Tip: You can improve your swing by using your entire body. Beginning golfers often assume that the swing is all in the arms, but if you use only the strength in your arms, then your drives will literally come up short.

Just the other day I was watching the Golf Channel and they were talking yet again about the latest and greatest drives and irons. This golf equipment (new technology) that has gotten totally out of hand, is making these companies a ton of money.

Why?

Because they prey on vulnerable, frustrated golfers looking to play better through golf equipment.

Here’s my beef!

Tip: It doesn't matter if you are a golf novice or seasoned pro, you will hit sand traps and bunkers from time to time. Getting your ball out may result in a destroyed sand pit.

It’s not working! I don’t care what these companies say…I see golfers everyday, buying new golf equipment and STILL not playing any better. It’s a known fact that the average golf handicap has not gone down in over 20 years!

It’s NOT the equipment that’s going to improve your game…it’s YOU!

Tip: Remember to keep going when you are playing golf. Other groups of golfers need to use the same greens; if you or someone in your group is wasting a lot of time, the people behind you may get annoyed or angry.

You swing that club. You show up to the range or course. It all depends on your current physical condition how well you will swing…and especially for 18 holes.

Is that registering with you yet?

Tip: Your focus needs to be at 100% for your next shot. Do not let water hazards or unsuccessful shots intimidate you when making your next shot.

How many new clubs have you bought lately? Did it allow you to play better…consistently? Be honest. Don’t let your pride answer that question. Just state the facts. Are your scores lower? Do you swing with better consistency?

These are questions to constantly ask yourself to make sure you are seeing progress. If you’re not…then save your money and get working on YOU!

It’s always fun to see the new golf equipment that’s coming out…but your game is dependant on your physical capabilities, not compensations with golf equipment.
