Top 10 Golf Tip Videos
High Soft Bunker Shots
Stand slightly farther from the ball, widen your base, lower your hands and use a lob wedge or opened face sand wedge
Setup: The Universal Fundamental
Go through this systematic process to make sure your set up is proper, consistent and aligned
Putting Beat And Rhythm
Your putting swing should be balanced back and through with no unnecessary acceleration; the best way to practice this is to use a metronome
Slow Motion Swing Practice
Working on your swing in slow motion will allow you to analyze what you are doing on each part of the swing, which will help you fix your flaws but also get away from swinging segmentally
Training: Stress Release
Train under circumstances that exaggerate the stress you would normally feel on the golf course, hit off of bad lies on the range, practice when it is windy and inoculate yourself against stress
