Making A Par Five

Making a par five in regulation seems easy enough for most amateur golfers. After all, aren’t we striving for a birdie on all par fives? Good preparation and the right positive mental attitude will go a long way in making a par five each and every time.

Taking the average amateur golfer through the important things required to improve their golf game is an important thing to watch. Mike Pedersen continues his excellent teaching method on this par five hole as he watches and comments on the necessary warm up exercises.

Getting the golfer on the green in regulation three strokes is essential in making a par five every time. Watch the video a see for yourself.

Daly show to make it a memorable Masters

FORMER US PGA and British Open champion John Daly has been given a late invite to next week’s 30th anniversary Australian Masters - but will he remember his one previous visit to Melbourne’s Huntingdale layout?

Daly, who is playing this week’s Hong Kong Open, which is co-sanctioned by the Asian and European tours, contacted Masters organizers at the weekend seeking a start at the tournament.

IMG Australasian vice-president David Rollo said yesterday: “I had no hesitation in giving John a sponsor invite. He is a major winner and will add to our field.”

Daly has expressed an interest in joining the European Tour, which started its 2009 schedule with last week’s Singapore Open, and is looking for a swift start in the Race to Dubai, the Tour’s season-long, $US10 million ($15.5m) competition which concludes with the Dubai World Championship next November.

“I’ve enjoyed all my previous trips to Australia,” Daly said in a statement.

Choosing The Right Golf Clubs

Choosing the right golf clubs is critical to improving your golf game score. If you are a true beginner and haven’t really decided whether or not you will be pursuing golf as a sport, then buying a medium priced set of off-the-shelf golf clubs will do just fine. This will supplement the need for choosing the right golf clubs while you are learning how to play.

After playing a few rounds though, you will know if you will be someone that will want to learn how to play golf well or that it just isn’t the game for you.

If your trips to the driving range and the gold course proved to be encouraging, then choosing the right golf clubs will be the next step for you.

Good Golf Practice Makes For A Good Golf Game

Many golfers can’t be bothered with the preparation necessary to have a good round of golf. After all, Good Golf Practice Makes For A Good Golf Game. Every practice session or golf round must be started with a specific exercise regime designed to loosen the muscles used in swinging a golf club.

Because of the effects that stretching can have on your muscle conditioning, it will most likely be necessary to make some adjustments in your swing to compensate for your new found physical condition. If we think about this, the reverse is actuall true. Becasue of your lack of muscle conditioning before a practice session or game, you have been compensating for the lack of looseness in your body. Once you routinely perform some warm up exercises your swing will become more fluid and therefor more consistent.

In this latest video lesson, Mike Pedersen explains just how this happens and how you can become more consistent with your golf game. Remember that good golf practice makes for a good golf game.

Choosing the right competition level in golf is very important yet some golfers have difficulty recognizing their proper level. It’s too easy to say you play better then you actually do, yet the proof is usually in the actual way you play (your score).

Bob Skura has written a good article that does a good job explaining this golf phenomenon by using Michelle Wie and Tiger Woods as two examples of choosing the right competition level.

I enjoyed reading this article and how Bob suggests peeing into your future to get mentally prepared.
