Some Tips To Improve Your Golf
Score
by: Edwin Shackleford
In all sports, it is essential that you warm up properly
to attain the best performance. If you go to any
professional or even amateur sporting event, you will
see competing athletes doing pre-game warm-ups. Golfers,
especially those in the professional level, are not
different from them. When tour professionals are about
to begin their first tee, they would have made full
warm-ups to be able to make their best swings.
However, most amateurs have their “warm-ups” done by
racing from their autos to the shop and check in, then
dashing to their first tee, in just about five minutes.
Most of the time, this is followed by an unsteady and
inconsistent play for the first holes, ending up with
another lackluster round. The result: Disappointing golf
scores.
Here are some tips for you for improving your golf
score.
• First, go to the golf course as early as possible. You
need time in taking care of your matters in the shop, in
using the restroom, changing clothes and shoes, among
others. It is crucial that you do not feel pressured or
rushed, allowing you to get warmed up at a relaxed pace.
Remember that your warm-up time sets your mood and tempo
throughout the day, so just relax and move slowly. A
minimum of an hour or two before you begin hitting your
first tee would probably help you get a nice and relaxed
warm-up.
• Start your warm-up routine at the putting green. By
spending some time on warming up on the green, you will
be ready for the speed of the greens. More importantly,
you will start up your day with a nice, deliberate, and
smooth tempo.
• Spend about 10 minutes or so trying to hit the chips
around the green using a tee as your target. First test
the greens’ firmness to see how much or less the golf
ball will roll. In general, the ball tends to move more
on hard greens than the soft greens. In addition, there
are various kinds of rough which make the ball move
differently when it touches the green. Spending some
time around the green helps you to have some thoughts on
choosing the great greenside shots during your round,
and also, the spots where you are landing the golf ball
on the putting surface.
Remember: If you do not get enough warm-up, you should
not expect to have an optimal performance, and
consequently, a good golf score.
