How To
Five Simple Steps to Lower Your Golf Scores
- Start with the right equipment. You will need to purchase quality clubs and balls. To find the right club for you, it is best to learn from someone who plays golf. If you don’t know anyone who plays, then ask around at the local driving range. They might even give you a free lesson just because they like seeing new faces!
- Practice makes perfect. It’s obvious that practice is key to improving your game. No matter what level you play at, practicing is important. And when you do start practicing, make sure you keep track of your progress. Note everything that you do in order to track your progress.
- Play more. When you first get started, it’s probably going to feel like you’re spending too much money on golfing gear, so you won’t go out nearly enough. But once you get into a groove, you’ll realize that you actually enjoy it quite a bit. You can increase your play frequency. Try to play at least three rounds per week. This would mean that you play one round 18 holes on weekends and two rounds 9-holes during the week.
- Don’t forget to eat well. A lot of people think that they’re doing their bodies a favor by skipping breakfast and eating only after lunch. This isn’t good for your health. Instead, eat something before you go out of the house. Ideal is to have a small snack that contains protein, carbohydrates, as well as fat. Then, when you arrive at the course, you can have a light meal consisting of lean proteins and vegetables.
- Make sure you drink plenty of fluids. Drinking lots of fluids helps prevent dehydration, which can lead to headaches and muscle aches. Drinking water is important for optimal performance.
