Why Talking A Golf Training System Isn't Always The Answer Part 1

Golfers will do anything they can in hopes to play better golf and hit the LONG ball. Am I right?

Tip: Ensure that the back of the foot in front is lined up with your ball when you do a drive shot. During any other swing, the golf ball should be almost dead center between your feet when you swing.

Are you in this group of golfers? If so, I’m quite confident to say you’ve taken a golf training system / lesson or or two. Golf training lessons can be very effective in getting you back on track, if your swing has gone south. But, not always....

Why is that so? Let me explain...

Tip: Use a light, neutral grasp on all of your golf clubs. Holding your club too tightly will veer your shots to the right of where you want them to land.

How many golf training or lesson have you taken, only to be more frustrated, disappointing at your scores & performance and hitting the ball worse than before that golf lesson?

Tip: It is important to always ensure that you have adopted the proper stance. Try tapping your toes without your feet moving to see if you are in the right stance.

Do you know why this is happening even to veteran golfers? It can be many different reasons, such as too many swing thoughts and possibly your behavior; making drastic changes that require hours at the range and hitting thousands of balls; or lastly, your body just can’t effectively move in the way it needs to, to make a mechanically correct golf swing, and many more hidden reasons....

Tip: If you are considering purchases used golf clubs, always make sure to examine the head of the clubs. If the club has a worn, shiny spot near its center, it has been overused by its previous owner.

I’m inclined to say that for the majority of golfers, especially the older golfer, it’s the last reason above. Your body just can’t move the way it needs to. The question now is, why is that so?

Tip: It is a good idea to skip the golf cart and walk the course when you are golfing. Golfers who walk significantly increase their physical exertion and, therefore, the health benefits they enjoy from golfing.

Why can’t your body do what you know it needs to do to swing the club correctly? It can drive you to the point of quitting the game. But there is hope. There is an approach that will almost 100% of the time correct this problem. Do you want to know what it is? It’s addressing your “physical body and your mind limitations”. That’s what’s keeping you from a great game of golf. Do you know that hypnotherapy and even the misconceived NLP can improve your game of golf?

Tip: Shake things up a little the next time you are playing golf with friends by adding a reward into the mix. Make the prize a round of drinks, or even a full meal.

Do you ever get on the course and just feel like you can’t make a full backswing? Or, it just feels impossible to maintain your golf posture and “stay in your swing”?

No amount of golf training systems or lessons or hitting balls will correct this.

Tip: Make sure you are playing with others of your level to keep your confidence up. As a novice golfer, you should play simple courses with partners at your skill level.

The reason is your "physical and mind” issue, and until you work on it, it will never get better. I’ve seen it time and time again. Golfers walking off the course in pure disgust. They’ve taken many golf training systems or even paying tons of money for lessons that they already knew, hit balls at the range, and even bought the latest, greatest titanium drive; and yet still can’t play like they think they are capable of.
