5 Things to Do When Your Golf Stinks

Every golfer experiences a bad day on the course at some point.

It is, unfortunately, inevitable.

There are, however, things that you can do to prevent a bad day from turning into a horrible day.

It helps knowing your tendencies and being aware of them when they creep into your game.

LET ME GIVE YOU 5 MAIN REASONS YOU START STINKING ON THE GOLF COURSE AND WHAT YOU CAN DO:

1. 1. Speed – You swing too fast and your rhythm is out of sync. Step to the side and take some swings without a ball and try to find some tempo to your swing.
   2. Swing Too Hard – Usually this comes from trying to hit it longer. You squeeze the club hard and you swing at the ball. Take it easy and swing at 3/4 speed.
   3. Check your aim – Being misaligned, first leads to an offline shot that then turns into an unconscious swing correction which means you it is less repeatable.
   4. Ball position – If the ball is not in the correct spot, you can hit fat or thin shots.
   5. Play your favorite club – Quit hitting clubs that you don’t hit well. This may seem like common sense but just because you own a 3 wood that “should” goes a long way doesn’t mean it does.

The biggest thing to remember is that no matter how bad of a day you are having…

You did not suddenly lose your golf swing in a day.

Tomorrow is a new day..
