What Makes You Think You Can Play Well?
Many people take up golf and think they can play well from the outset.
Although golf is a highly technical game that can take years to master,most people think they should be playing a lot better than they do in a short space of time.
We expect to play consistently well with little or no practice, which is very strange because we would never expect that from most other sports.
All sports require skill, and none more than golf where a top round needs consistently good play on many holes and being in the right state of mind to allow that to occur.
Beginners luck is precisely that and unfortunately it is unlikely to return to the golfer who doesn't put the time and the effort in to play regularly, practice regularly and learn from the professionals on the golf course and from the best books, DVD's and videos.
Taking shortcuts will land you in the bunker or the water and that is a fast way to put a damper on your game.
As with any sport, the better your performance, the more fun a round of golf will be, and the only way that will happen is by improving your levels of skill.
You may not be able to afford a personal pro, however there are other ways to obtain instructions from the best golf pros in the world. Much of this information is available relatively inexpensively. There are also various golf aids available to help improve your swing even when you can't get outdoors.
Check out the major online golf stores and see what they have available, you might be surprised to see the help you can get with very little money down.
Also consider getting some good tapes to help you with mind control as all things being equal, the person who has the top few inches of their head in the right place on competition day will always win.
To a lower score!
