If you could take just one golf tip, this would be the one. It’s all about your head, and more specifically, keeping your head on the course. Hitting straight shots and putting the ball close to the pin is all well and good, but a key golf tip is to make sure that you are thinking your way around the course. Far too many players leave shots out there just because they failed to think things through.

So you’re in the woods, and you think you can shoot a 4-foot gap between some trees. Sounds nice in ideal, but how realistic is that going to be? Don’t make huge mistakes, and your score will look at a lot better at the end of the round. The big numbers are what kill rounds.
