Golf Equipment Isn't Working
Golf equipment doesn't work? Did that catch your attention? I hope so. Now keep reading.
Just the other day I was watching the Golf Channel and they were talking yet again about the latest and greatest drives and irons. This golf equipment (new technology) that has gotten totally out of hand, is making these companies a ton of money.
Why?
Because they prey on vulnerable, frustrated golfers looking to play better through golf equipment.
Here’s my beef!
It’s not working! I don’t care what these companies say…I see golfers everyday, buying new golf equipment and STILL not playing any better. It’s a known fact that the average golf handicap has not gone down in over 20 years!
It’s NOT the equipment that’s going to improve your game…it’s YOU!
You swing that club. You show up to the range or course. It all depends on your current physical condition how well you will swing…and especially for 18 holes.
Is that registering with you yet?
How many new clubs have you bought lately? Did it allow you to play better…consistently? Be honest. Don’t let your pride answer that question. Just state the facts. Are your scores lower? Do you swing with better consistency?
These are questions to constantly ask yourself to make sure you are seeing progress. If you’re not…then save your money and get working on YOU!
It’s always fun to see the new golf equipment that’s coming out…but your game is dependant on your physical capabilities, not compensations with golf equipment.

| Golf - Golf Swing Tips That Really Work
Great golf swing tips - enjoy! Do you know that a good golf swing has almost nothing to do with your arms? This is why practicing the No Arms drill makes perfect sense.
Don’t forget to cock your wrists! This is more important than taking the golf club back straight—which is what everybody out there tells you.
The experts will also tell you to let your left arm roll slightly clockwise at the start of your back swing. But this is not something you actually have to think about. It will happen naturally if you let it. So don’t sweat the small stuff!
Next, don’t be daydreaming. Keep your feet on the ground. So you won’t forget to do this, keep in mind t... | |
