Tweaks that make big difference

» Stand tall and align your posture. A golf swing is a full-body motion and this is the huge difference between a new golfer and one with experience. The efficient transfer of energy during a swing is the main movement that identifies a good and useless golfer. Those who can play well are able to harness all of their rotational power from their hips, shoulders, and legs. Your spine should align with your knees, and the balls of your feet when hitting a tee shot. Keeping your posture straight will allow more consistent drives and longer shots.
Follow through is vital for a smooth and fluid swing

» Follow through completely and don't stop your swing abruptly after making contact with the ball. Allow the club to release naturally through impact, following the path established by your setup and body rotation. Trust your swing mechanics and focus on maintaining a smooth and fluid motion through impact.
Emotional control is the golfer's true handicap
Sports, Brett Brasier, Published on 30/04/2025
» During a round of golf be aware of your emotions during different stages of the 18 holes. Try to monitor your feelings and your attitude towards how you're playing and towards your playing partners. Try to practise self-awareness during your round, so that you don't allow any emotions to cloud your judgment, that might initiate negative golfing thoughts. Recognise that a bad shot or hole will naturally trigger a sense of a feeling of loss, because you've added one or more shots to your score.
