Free relief, OB stakes and the one-club drop
Sports, Brett Brasier, Published on 11/02/2026
» Please allow me to try and explain what is an immovable obstruction once more. They are basically artificial, fixed objects like cart paths, sprinklers, or fences -- they allow for a free, one-stroke relief drop if they interfere with a player's lie, stance, or swing. Relief is not permitted for line-of-sight interference. Players must find the nearest point of complete relief, not closer to the hole, and drop within one club-length.
Old tricks and new science in green reading
Sports, Brett Brasier, Published on 27/08/2025
» I have to be honest and say that the 'Feet Feeling Method' for finding the break in a putt has never excited me. This involves using your feet to feel the slope of the green while you walk around it. The Plumb Bob Method in finding the line of any putt involves using your putter as a plumb line to judge the slope. To do this, you need to stand behind your ball, at a right angle to the hole, and hold up your putter so it covers the ball. Then, you align the shaft of your putter with the ball. If the shaft seems to tilt to one side, it indicates that the green also slopes in that direction and you then allow for this.
Out of bounds: Mastering thoughts for better rounds on course
Sports, Brett Brasier, Published on 27/11/2024
» The following is from Dr Brasier's experiences of many rounds of golf with many strange people. Golfers don't have a particular tool for creating good rounds, or from their thoughts as they create a good score. All thoughts we have in our minds are not ours. Hidden things from the subconscious are just thoughts. For example, fear is a thought, blocking something out is a thought, habit is a thought, apprehension of a particular course, shot or opponent is a thought. Several kinds of anxieties, any "What if" -- these are also thoughts.

The science behind ball positioning
Sports, Brett Brasier, Published on 08/05/2024
» The position of the ball is second only to the grip, and mistakes in grip and ball position are mistakes made before the swing that may ruin any thoughts of a good swing even before you've swung. Many golf coaches teach that the ball should be played off the left heel for all shots however, I'm not a fan of this doctrine as only very good players can do this off good lies. But if you play the ball off your left heel with a 9-iron, you must have a very fast hip shift to meet the club with the ball on the downswing.
