If you need help on the golf course to score better and play your best round, consider thinking about strategy before you play your round. You will need to learn where to be aggressive and where to dial it back, depending on your level of skill in golf.
For example, on a par 5, if you are a powerful and long driver of the ball, you may consider hitting the driver to give yourself a chance to go for the green in two shots. However, if driving is not your strong point, consider leaving the driver in the bag and taking a shorter, more consistent club. More than likely, you will have to lay up anyway, so it makes no difference if you add twenty yards to your shot with a driver.
What makes a perfect golf swing? Is it a technical motion where your elbow bends at just the right angle, your shoulders turn so far and the club head is taken back a specified distance? Is it any fluid motion that produces consistent, solid contact with the golf ball?
We all know a perfect golf swing when we see it. Ernie Els is considered by many to have a perfect golf swing. Players short in stature and weighing 50 or more pounds less than their counterparts are able to drive the ball just as far. Must be they have a perfect golf swing. Getting enough clubhead speed, being able to hit the ball in the right direction and being able to do it over and over again, makes a perfect golf swing.

Few things kill a golfer’s game off the tee box is much the slice, an affliction that makes an otherwise great tee shot bend to the right (for right-handed hitters) as it flies. Understanding why a shot slices is easier than fixing it, but a standard tip says to check your back swing. Often, the slice is a result of an outside-in swing. Put into layman’s terms, that means that during the back swing, the golf club head is further away from the player’s body than it is when it strikes the ball, creating a spin that makes the ball curve during flight. During your next round or trip to the driving range, pay attention to the path your club head takes during your back swing and see how your slice is affected.

A quick golf swing lesson to improve those drives involves that most difficult of clubs for the amateur to hit: the driver. This is the lightest club in the bag and should have the greatest swing speed for maximum length off the tee. However, many players that that swing harder will produce a faster swing and the ball will consequently travel farther. They fail to realize that everything has to be in harmony and once the timing is thrown off, the ball tends to visit places besides the fairway.
By teeing the ball higher and playing it forward in your stance, a normal golf swing will propel the spheroid much farther than trying to kill it. This is how the professional do it and the reason why amateurs fail often.
