Thin Shots

By admin, November 30, 2009 2:03 pm

Thin shots are usually a huge problem with bad lies. Getting solid contact on the ball is so important to accurate distance and clubbing that failure to do so throws an entire round off kilter. Thin shots aren’t the worst miss a golfer can endure from a bad swing, but it is certainly not the ideal way to strike the ball. Some of the pros actually practice thinning the ball out of certain situations when it is the most effective way to advance the ball. Amateurs should really try to stick to the basics and focus on squaring the clubface at impact while keeping it in the hitting zone as long as possible. A nice, level base to the swing will result in more consistency and less thin shots.

Playing ‘The Game’

As anyone who has ever casually picked up a golf club for the first time can tell you, playing golf is far more difficult than one imagines. It takes more than owning a professional set of clubs to be able to become skilled at the sport. Regular golf instruction is vital for all who someday aspire to play a killer game. Initially you will have to learn the basics: correct grip, proper stance, and the right club. Later the golf instruction will consist of adjusting technique, realizing bad practices and improving consistency and skill. The more you make an effort to look for and accept expert golf instruction, the more quickly your game will improve.
