Have You Been Offered This Golf Tip?

How many times, when you were struggling out there on the golf course, have you been offered a golf tip?

It seems that there are a whole bunch of golfers who just cannot help themselves from passing on their own personal favorite golf tips when they see a fellow golfer struggling.

For one friend of mine this got so bad that he actually refused to play with a particular golfer who always passed on golf tips whenever they played together.

The problem with the golf tip is that it only affects one small part of your swing. And the golf swing is a very complex series of movements that have to be carried out precisely, in a correct sequence and at a given speed. If the golf tip you are given upsets that sequence or throws another part of your swing out of its normal place it can have a disasterous effect on your shot.

The reason why I like Mind-Movies is that they string together, in the correct sequence, all the different positions and moves of a good swing. A good golf Mind-Movie is in effect a whole series of golf tips correctly strung togther.

What I am saying here is that any single golf tip can damage your swing no matter how good that tip may be. Any golf tip you are given may be a perfectly correct part of a good golf swing but if that golf tip does not fit in with the rest of your swing it can spell disaster.

Smart golfers learn to visualize all the different bodily positions in their golf swing. They then groove those pictures into their mind in the form of Mind-Movies. These Mind-Movies show them exactly what they have to do in order to swing the club in a way which consistently produces long and accurate shots. Then, when they’re ready to play, all they do is run their Mind-Movie and let the movie send precise what-to-do instructions to the different parts of their body.

The trick with Mind-Movies is to build them correctly and then groove them into your mind so that you can see them whenever you need them. Then, if someone offers you a golf tip you can check it out against the pictures in your mind before deciding whether it will be likely to improve your swing.

It took me a lot of time and a lot of trial-and-error to learn to do program my Mind-Movies correctly. But once I’d mastered the art it had a magical effect on my game. In my e-book The Golf Mind Movies Power Pack I describe in detail how to install a golf Mind-Movie which will quickly get you playing more consistent golf.

If a golfer you know is suddenly hitting the ball further and straighter it is probably not because of some simple golf tip or because they have purchased the latest big, big, great big enormous driver or a new set of irons; it is far more likely that they have pieced together a whole set of golf tips into an effective golf Mind-Movie that works for them.

Refining Your Golf Swing

Refining Your Golf Swing

One of the most important aspects of playing golf is refining the golf swing. The golf swing is a vital tool that is used to deliver the golf ball down a fairway and it can be used by a golfer to find a way out of a sand trap or two. The golf swing should be practiced more than putting because there are certain places on a golf course that can not be attempted with a good golf swing to clear it.

Most golfers will practice golf at a driving range because the golf swing is what drives the golf ball down a fairway. The golfer has many choices in irons and woods that they can use throughout the course of a game of golf and must perfect the use of each of these instruments to ensure that the best score is achieved during any golf game. Some days at the driving range might be used to perfect the use of a putter too.

Some of the areas that a golfer must work on to perfect the perfect golf swing are the placement of the arms and legs when holding an iron and the posture of the entire body when making many types of golf shots. The golfer will mainly be concerned about the direction of the body when it is over the ball when it is sitting on a golf tee ready to tee off.

Some golfing enthusiasts will feel the need to dress for the occasion and will spend a considerable amount of time selecting golf clothes at the pro shop before practice. They might get some forms of instruction from the golf pro about the correct method to hold a golf club and which methods of teeing off work best.

The golf pro is likely going to pay particular attention to the way the golfer folds the fingers around an iron and the particular position the elbow is end at various stages of the golf swing. The golf swing can be hindered dramatically if the golfer is not following through on the delivery and the pro can tell them how to correct any type of problem they have in a matter of minutes.

Simple corrections in posture and the amount of force used to hit a ball during various phases of a golf swing can make a dramatic difference on improving a golf swing and in most cases the position of the hips have a lot to do with why the ball is not going as far as the golfer intended it to. A golfer always has to practice and consider a lot of things when perfecting a golf swing whether they are on a golf course or at a driving range.
