A Few Great Golf Courses To Play

When you look around at some of the golf courses in Golf Digest or online, you will see that the courses are well groomed and offer different levels of golf.

Bay Hill Club and Lodge

Arnold Palmer is a well known professional golfer who has many golf courses around the country. One of his famous golf courses is the Bay Hill Club and Lodge down in Orlando, Florida. This course is remarkable. This eighteen hole golf course was designed by Dick Wilson with hills and no surprise holes. It is a straightforward golf course that many find very inspirational to the world of golf.

The Hampton Cove

Trent Jones is another designer of a spectacular golf course in Huntsville, Alabama. The Hampton Cove is very different than his Highlands Golf course, but the imagination is still seen. The River course is a delight to play and it has no bunkers to be seen. The golf course is a golfer’s delight and many professionals come to this course for leisure golf if there is such a thing with them. The Hampton Cove has three different courses to play. There course are well groomed and many golfer’s plan their vacations at this golf course.

Whistling Straits

Whistling Straits in Haven, Wisconsin has been the home to the PGA games. This course was designed on the lakefront and the terrain is somewhat hilly and sandy, but the course is a challenge to play. On a windy day, the winds coming off the lake can be tedious for golfers, but that makes the challenge even greater. Herbert Kohler owns the golf course that was designed especially to attract the PGA tournaments. When the golf course opened, it was necessary to play the course for area golfers and visitors to the area. Everyone wanted to experience the challenge that the course brings. This is a walk only golf course.

Carambola Golf and Country Club

Trent Jones designed yet another golf course in the Virgin Islands that has a tropical appeal. St. Croix is where you will find the Carambola Golf and Country Club. This is a signature golf course and has yet more imagination than some of his other creations. Golfer’s find this course demanding in the way of fun and excitement. The golf course does offer a spectacular view as well as a beautifully groomed course. Robert Trent Jones is a master of design when it comes to unbelievable golf courses.

These are just a few favorites when it comes to golf. Every state and county has a golf course that is great to play. For the most part, all the courses are well groomed and offer eighteen holes of golf. You can enjoy a day of golf and then relax in the clubhouse with a few drinks and some stories about why you missed that shot. There is nothing better than spending a day golfing when you take a trip. Many people find this a reason to visit certain areas. The golfing is great and the drinks are wonderful. However, you can be the judge of that when you visit some of the best courses around.

How To Develop Confidence in Your Golf Swing Today  P.2

In order to gain confidence you must believe in your golf swing.

If someone feels negative, sad, angry or frustrated with their golf swing when they enter certain circumstances, events or situations, especially when taking to the golf course, it is very likely that they are going to feel lacking in confidence and this leads to lacking in competence with the golf swing. You need to change your self-image and paint a better picture of yourself in your mind as to how you believe your golf swing to be and what you feel capable of doing and being. No other person can reach inside us and change our feelings for us. If you really want to feel more confident about your golf swing, your self-image needs to be changed in relation to your golf swing. If you see yourself as successful, skilled and confident, you can enter any golf course with your head held high and standing tall and feeling safe and protected by it. You are feeling good about yourself and your golf swing.

We all react automatically to life according to our inner sense of ourselves. Our self-image is our inner sense of ourselves and we refer to that part of ourselves all the time to see how to behave or perform in certain circumstances. In other words, your reactions are founded in your self-image. Building and developing and creating a progressive, positive self-image with regards to your golf swing ensures that your automatic reactions come from a sense of freedom, confidence and are powerful.

I once attended a course whereby the facilitator had devised a wonderful technique that I use a lot with many of the individual clients that consult with me to better their golf swing. The reason I like it so much is because it makes you instantly feel good about your golf swing. This simple technique can be done absolutley any time that you are in a room with a mirror.

So many people I meet condition themselves to feel uncomfortable or bad when they look into a mirror by looking into it and thinking about fat, wrinkles or a blemish or how poor their golf swing is! I have noticed several of my friends look into a mirror and “tut” at themsleves while reminding themselves of all the bad things that attack our confidence. So this technique interupts that process and allows you to recondition yourself to feel better and more confident about your golf swing.

Ok, so first up, take a seat or position yourself comfortably in view of a mirror so that you will be able to see your entire self, however, do not look into it straight away. Just wait and look away for a moment.

Then, think about an occasion when someone you know was being sincere when they paid you a compliment following a shot you played. It can be any compliment what so ever of any kind related to your golf game.

Thirdly, remember what it was that they said and hear it again in your mind and remember how it made you feel. Locate where abouts in your body those feelings were. Really tune into them.

Now, imagine that feeling of being complimented, feeling good about your golf swing and feeling talented spreading through your system, working its way into your cells and into your mind, really imagine it spreading and travelling through you. Imagine that the more it spreads, the more intense the feelings become, this is going to make your golf swing awesome.

Now, turn or look up and into the mirror. Really look at yourself while feeling that feeling.

Spend some time enjoying this feeling.

Lastly, imagine taking a picture of yourself just like that image in the mirror. Imagine taking that picture right into your heart. Keep it there, right there, so that you can look at it whenever you want to remind yourself of how good you can feel about your golf swing.

Please remember; self-confidence is innate. It is built into us from the day we were born. We can often lose touch with it and learn to worry or lessen it, however, confidence is simply hard-wired into you. It is there all the time underneath your worries. Worries and lack with regards to your golf swing are things that can go up and down, can be learned and unlearned. Your confidence is always there beneath all that. Let it permeate in to your golf swing.

It is like when a baby keeps on wanting to walk and keeps on falling down and keeps on at it. However may times they stumble, they get up and they learn and they benefit from it. The persistence is rewarded. Your confidence is hard-wired into you. We all have it. Every technique in both parts of this confident golf swing article are just ways of reminding you all of what you already have.

Good luck with getting that confident golf swing.
