The Secret to "Monster" Drives.





Golf Weekly Deal repeats as a clear winner again this week.  They are always top performers in the BS category with all their unbelievable claims for their products and they have gone back into their warehouse full of “secrets” that only top tour players know about and if you will pull out a credit card they will “share” this one with you.


Every time I open one of their emails the same question comes to mind – “Do you really think golfers are that stupid?”
 
This week you can go to their website and watch the video or rather listen to their presentation of why buying this new secret pill from them is going to make dramatically better without doing anything else - no practice, nothing..........

All you have to do is "Take Two-Capsules Twice A Day On An Empty Stomach, Every Day, No Matter If You’re Playing Golf Or Not. (It Needs To “Build Up” In Your System.) If You Will Be Playing Golf, Take A Dose Of Golf Fuel 30 Minutes Before Playing And Another Dose At The Turn."

This came in email box yesterday:

Golf Practice Routine.

Three Questions to Ask Yourself About Your Practice Routine.

Do you need to practice your golf swing in order to improve? How much should you practice? What should you be practicing? Of the Golfers that stay inconsistent, regardless of what they do to improve ... I have found that they fall into one of the below three categories:

#1 Do you don't practice enough?


I'd like to use an analogy to make a point about improving your golf swing. Does a Professional Football Player need go to practice each week before a game?

Silly question ... but also it applies to your golf game. Because even though that Football Player is one of the top athletes in the world and one of the top skilled athletes ... he still needs to practice just to maintain his/her skill level. I’m not even talking about improving ... they need to practice just to maintain.

Now let’s take this analogy to the Professional Golfer ... do they need to practice? Oh sorry - that probably is another silly question - as the answer is “of course they do!”

Yet, if the best Golfers in the world need to practice at least 2 times a week just to maintain their skill level ... and their skill level is already high ... how much do you need to practice just to maintain what you have?

The question isn't whether you should or should not practice to improve your golf swing.  The question should be - how much do you need to practice just to maintain your current level?

#2 Do you practice too much?

How much is too much practice? Too much is when you go out to the driving range with 3 or more things to work on in your golf swing.  This often leads to Golfers drifting from golf tip to golf tip – trying new things each swing until they find something that works.

Once they find something that works … they usually stick with it until it stops working.  Yet, once it's not working anymore … it’s on to finding something else that helps you to hit the golf ball better.

That is until that next golf tip stops working and the whole process of “Fiddling” with your golf swing starts over again.

As there’s no doubt that it’s better to practice 1 time a week and play 1 time a week versus playing and not practicing.  The former (play once and practice once) is probably better for you than practicing 4 times a week and not playing at all.

However, you need to find what your perfect ratio of practice to play is.  Each person is going to have a different ratio of how much to practice and how much to play. 

And although some Golfers will have a ratio that’s perfect for them – I often see many Golfers that practice too much.  So when you do see the Golfer that practices much more than they play ... you usually see a Golfer that struggles taking their golf swing to the golf course.

Why?

Because if a Golfer practices their swing too much – they often carry that practice mentality onto the golf course where they aren’t in the right frame of mind to play golf.  They become too focused on working on all the things they worked on while on the driving range – and their golf swing and their scores suffer.

Try to find your optimum ratio of practice to play.  Yes, you need to practice … however, just as importantly – you need to be able to play without thinking about your practice.

#3 Do you don’t know what to practice?

Perhaps the worst of all is not knowing what to practice.  Many Golfers hit the practice range – just for the simple fact of … hitting golf balls.  Or because they just read about a new tip and they want to see if it works.

However, when a Golfer goes to the driving range just to hit golf balls without a PLAN – they’re setting themselves up for disaster. Do you think a 1 handicap or a PGA/LPGA Tour Player goes to the driving range just to hit golf balls? Of course not. They have something specific they’re going to work on.

Do you know any Golfers that say - "I don't practice anymore because whenever I practice ... I get worse."

I hear that every day in emails from Golfers that are struggling. They have stopped practicing because practice doesn't help them.

Not knowing what to practice turns your golf game into a rollercoaster of highs and lows – that ends just like all rollercoasters end … in the same place it began.  Golfers that go to hit golf balls without knowing what to practice stay inconsistent Golfers for the rest of their lives.

Swing Plane Explained Wonderfully in This Video.

This is the best explanation of the swing plane I have seen.  I have explained on many occasion that the golf swing is a baseball swing tilted.  Charlie King demonstrates this beautifully.  Watch this and you will finally understand what swing on plane really means.

Charlie King is as dedicated as I am to trying to getting people to understand that the golf swing really can be explained in a simple fashion and there are no secrets, much less secrets that you need to pay for.

I love the motto for his blog "Simple Solutions for a Complex Game".

The Golf Channel and Michael Breed Win The BSOW Award This Week!



My BSOW Award goes to Michael Breed and The Golf Fix on The Golf Channel for this video on how to shape your golf shots.





I don’t pretend to know more about the golf swing than anybody in the world, but after 35+ years of studying it, teaching it, and applying logic to it I have learned a few things.  I also played well enough to play in a couple of PGA Tour events and several PGA Club Professional Championships so I had to know something about shaping a shot and I can tell you right now that to fade or draw the ball there is no reason to change your entire swing path.  Slicing and hooking are something different.


To fade the ball you simply grip the club with the club face slightly open and to draw the ball you grip it slightly closed and take your normal swing.  The last thing you want to do in the heat of competition is to be reshaping your path.


Has anyone ever talked about Ben Hogan swinging from outside to in?  No!  He was very particular about how he gripped the club to achieve his fade.


Michael Breed is excellent at putting on an entertaining show, but his knowledge and teaching ability are a little suspect.


Now that I’ve blown off steam for the week, I hope everyone has a great weekend and between the PGA Tour, The European Tour, and the LPGA Tour there is a lot of great golf even without Tiger.

Haney: Woods' chipping yips not going away!

Haney: Woods' chipping yips not going away

Paul Azinger said on Saturday that Tiger Woods' short-game woes could be corrected "in minutes." Hank Haney, one of Woods' former swing coaches, doesn't agree. He says Woods has the yips with his wedge game. “When you have the yips, you have issues,” Haney said. “This isn’t going away."
Haney made his comments on his show on Sirius/XM PGA Tour Radio.
Haney said watching Woods use a 4-iron to hit bump-and-run shots rather than lofting a wedge convinced him Woods has "a serious issue and he knows it."
Mis-hitting several chips and pitches at TPC Scottsdale, Woods shot 73-82 - the second round his worst as a pro - and missed the cut in the Waste Management Phoenix Open.
