Golf is such a great game but it can be so frustrating when you’re having one of those days. Here are 5 basic tips that you can do now to help you play better golf on a consistent basis

1. Although training aids can be tremendously helpful in working out the kinks in your game, the importance of good equipment can’t be underestimated. A good set of golf clubs will help you play your best, but if you can’t afford a new set, you can always opt for brand name pre-owned golf clubs. Used golf clubs often come with a certification and warranty, so you can be assured of their quality.

2. Study the experts and follow their advice, there’s a simple reason why certain golfers are so successful, it’s because they know what they’re doing. But so many golfers don’t regularly learn from other golfers, they try to improve their game on their own and it often is a much slower process this way, read, learn and study other golfers to improve your own game and especially your swing, if you’re slicing.

3. Keep you club faces clean. If you have the slightest dirt or grit on the face of the club, it can affect the flight of the ball. Be sure to clean your clubs after every round. It can make a difference.

4. Your Stance – The important point to remember with the stance is to keep your weight balanced and your feet position getting wider up to shoulder width as the club you are using gets longer. So for the driver you will want the most stability thus a wider stance with your legs shoulder width apart is ideal. Also the ball position should start at the center of your stance for a wedge and move up to the heel of your left foot for the driver.

5. Warm up and gently stretch your muscles before starting a round, and it is equally important to cool down properly after your game. Just a few stretches after a round of golf can help reduce the risk of any injuries, particularly to the back and hamstrings. Walking can tighten your hamstrings and that makes them more susceptible to tearing and injury. A good golf swing also requires a lot of back movement and if you haven’t warmed up properly before your first swing, you could do some severe damage.

The tips above are simple and not too technical – but very effective at improving your overall game. So give it a go and play better golf now.
