Pressure Is Part of the Game Every round of golf includes a pressure putt. A must-make for par. A short putt to save a great hole. A final-hole putt to break 90, 80, or 100. These moments create tension, even for experienced players. Your hands tighten. Your thoughts speed up. You feel the weight of…
Is Your Clubface Really Square? Most golfers have no idea where their clubface is pointing during the swing. They make a good move, strike the ball cleanly, and then wonder why the shot starts left or sails right. What they don’t realize is that face angle—not swing path—is often the real culprit. Elite ball-strikers don’t…
If you’re consistently shooting in the low 80s, you’re already a solid golfer. But breaking through into the 70s — and doing it regularly — requires a different level of precision and discipline. It’s not about hitting five more perfect shots. It’s about thinking differently, managing misses better, and executing under pressure more consistently. In…
The green is where the scorecard gets written — and it’s also where some of the most specific and misunderstood golf rules come into play. From marking and cleaning your ball to dealing with the flagstick or another player’s ball in your line, it’s easy to get tripped up if you’re not sure what’s allowed….
The scoring zone—20 to 60 yards—is where rounds are saved or lost. These aren’t full swings, and they’re not chips either. Too many golfers guess their way through these shots, relying on feel alone. That leads to inconsistent distance control and blown opportunities to get up-and-down. If you want to shoot lower scores, you need…
The Silent Killer of Good Putting You’ve practiced the stroke. You know the read. You’re standing over a putt you’ve made a hundred times before. But then it hits you: What if I miss? That tiny thought changes everything. Your grip tightens. Your stroke shortens. Your body hesitates. Fear doesn’t just affect your mind—it alters…
If you want to swing faster, hit farther, and generate more clubhead speed without changing your technique, plyometrics might be the missing link in your training. Plyometric exercises — explosive, jump-based movements — train your muscles to fire quickly and efficiently, mimicking the same kind of rapid force production needed in the golf swing. These…
The Face Controls the Flight Most golfers think their slice, hook, or push comes from swinging over the top or dropping too far inside. But if you really want to understand your ball flight, you need to look at one thing first: your clubface at impact. The face angle—not the path—is what determines the majority…
If you consistently shoot in the 90s and want to start breaking into the 80s, you might think the answer lies in hitting more perfect shots. But that’s not where the real difference is. The jump from the 90s to the 80s isn’t about massive swing changes — it’s about refining your habits, making better…
Most amateur golfers experience the same miss over and over, yet they chalk it up to “just a bad swing.” In reality, that miss is a symptom — a clue your swing is sending you. The direction, height, and contact quality of your shots can tell you exactly what’s going wrong in your mechanics, from…
