The hardest shot in golf is always the next one. While lessons help us improve, the real key to getting better lies in the mind. Our mindset is the most powerful tool we have to improve every part of our game. We need to believe that what we’re learning is truly working. This explains why […]

Start by standing a few steps behind the ball, visualising the line to your target and how the ball will fly towards it. Approach the ball from behind and secure a solid grip on the club, choose something on the ground inline with the target about a 30cms infront of the ball. Set the club […]

The turn in a golf swing should be really simple. Just turn your back to the target, then turn your belly button through. Your weight should naturally follow your center of gravity—if it’s not, you’re swaying instead of turning.

Dont overlook how much foot positioning can affect the length of the golf swing. Try this experiment: Take your normal stance and make a backswing, with the shaft pointing toward the target. Check your position in the mirror. Now set up again, but this time, turn your left foot outwards, as if cutting a slice […]

Having had the chance to use and buy all the latest golf swing tools, from impact bags to speed sticks, I can confidently say few things work as well as slashing a large area of grass by hand. Big swings, proper striking, and speed to cut through are essential components of a good golf swing. […]

I was taught to swing the club, not hit the ball. This distinction is crucial because it emphasizes using your entire body to generate power, rather than relying on your hands.

The best ball strikers all move their head during the golf swing, though some more than others. The key is that at the moment of impact, their heads are consistently behind the ball. This position is only temporary, as immediately after impact, their heads move up and through the ball along with the rest of […]

This takes on a whole new meaning when applied to the mental game of golf. Having played Division 1 golf for 10 years, I discovered that the most powerful tool in match play was not just my swing or strategy, but my words—both those I used with others and those I used with myself. It’s […]

The power of positive thinking in golf can’t be overstated. I’ve often been told that the brain doesn’t hear “don’t,” and this idea rings especially true after witnessing countless times when someone says, “You don’t want to go over there,” only for the ball to head straight in that direction. Our eyes tend to guide […]

When people tell you to relax on the golf course, it’s usually well-intentioned advice. However, most golfers never reach a level where their focus is solely on the one thing they can control—the next shot. Golf is an emotional game, and maintaining balance on the course is essential. This balance can lead to moments of […]
