Do Not Think Too Much Just Hit It Don’t Let Slow Play Spoil Your Game

This is a good idea, hire a professional and make sure that he is a great player and teacher as well. If they just stand there and watch you without actually showing you the swing that can get you out of the sand trap, or hit the Fade or the proper way to putt then what are you paying for. The best teachers will try to understand what you can do first, and then adjust the advice to suit your needs.

If you’re ready to play, it’s important not to think too much before taking your shot. I have played with people who have taken so long over the ball trying to remember everything the pro taught them, you wonder how you ever got through 18 holes. It is impossible to think of a dozen things while thinking about the grip, where your feet are, where the ball is, keep an eye on the ball, keep your head straight, and so on.

My advice is see the shot first feel the shot and then do it. (pull the trigger)

As you’re learning the game there are certain principles which must be respected.

Here are two basic tips to help you improve your personal game.

An important foundation you need, no matter what shot you make, no matter what club you’re using is balance. You must be balanced when you swing the club..

And do not forget, of course; always keep an eye on the ball. Make sure that the stance allows you to see the ball at every point of the stroke.

Take your time and develop methods that work best for you. Unless you’re playing golf for a living, you have all the time in the world to get it right.

Like everything else in life, golf, takes time and practice and, if you take your time, and try to do everything as natural as possible, you will quickly get the first birdie and before you know it you will break 80 regularly.
