Approach Shots: What it takes to master them
Basically, your approach shot is your shot onto the green. One of the things I like to say is this, "You know your game is improving when you start fixing more ball marks on the green". To fix a ball mark on the green most likely means that you hit...
How Important Is Your Golf Swing Release
An optimal golf swing release has a lot to do with the way the golfer controls their body and makes use of their muscles right from the back swing to the impact and follow through. And the muscles involved are not just those in the arm. The feet,...

Strengthening Your Golf Swing Muscles Will Greatly Improve Your Golf Game

Better Golf Solutions Start With One Simple Approach
Better golf solutions is a mystery for the average golfer. Finding the magic bullet that's going to cure your game overnight isn't going to happen. In looking for better golf solutions, you've got to think about what's the main reason you're not making a sound, repeatable golf swing that generates power and accuracy?
Common approaches to better golf solutions are taking more lessons; buying new golf equipment that will hopefully make up for your swing faults (such as offset/oversized drivers and irons); purchasing training aids that promise the world, but end up in your garage gathering dust or being sold on ebay; or going to the range with a new level of practice commitment.
The six million dollar question! Did it help? Are you happy with your results?
If the answer is yes, congratulations on your success! If the answer is no, than what in the world is left? You've done everything right?
I want you to think real hard for a second.
What one thing is critical in swinging a club, hitting the ball square and long, and producing results?
YOU!
You dictate your outcome!
Let me explain.
You body has a current level of physical capability. It is what it is. Whatever that level is, will be your outcome. No ifs, ands, or buts about it! You will never consistently play to what you think your
potential is until you improve your "physical capabilities"!
If golfers knew this little secret, they'd save hundreds, if not thousands of dollars a year on lessons, gimmicky training aids, equipment and range fees.
You are an athlete! A golf athlete! You've got to "prepare your body to perform".
What other athletic event do you know of where the athlete just shows up without working on his/her physical attributes?
None!
I hate to be so blunt, but it is a fact. Only until you realize this, and take it to heart will you achieve your golfing goals. Your BODY determines your outcome. Your BODY makes your golf swing. Your BODY physically plays for 18 holes. Your BODY dictates your confidence. I hope you're getting the point here.
I can't say this strong enough!
Take the approach like an athlete and you will never have to think of better golf solutions.
