Important Information for Golf Newbies

By Athena Hunter


It seems that everyone who has played golf at least once gets bitten by the golfing bug and can't wait to start playing this very popular game. It is a competitive game that suits a lot of people, but it is not laborious.

If you have never played golf before but are excited to start, you might be tempted to rush out and buy the most expensive and snazzy-looking golf clubs you can. However, this is the not the right thing to do, especially if you have never played the game. To be quite honest, when you start out you should use rental golf clubs until you even know that you will continue playing. Why throw money out the window before you are absolutely certain that you like the game and actually want to play regularly? If you have a real liking for the game and have actually played a few games then you might want to take a look at getting a set of professionally fitted clubs. Although they are not cheap, they can be valuable because of the thickness of the grip to the length and the stiffness of the shaft

You might not know it from the start, but being physically fit is a very important factor if you want to be a good golfer. The five components that will have an impact on your game are balance, control, posture, strength and flexibility. For instance, balance is very critical to your swing. As is strength, which will help you generate the power needed to get the ball where you want it to go. Before you start any form of exercise routine, you need to make sure that you choose exercises specific to golfing. By getting in shape physically, you can not only improve your golf game, but you can reduce your chance of physical injury. This will make the experience more enjoyable and reducing the likelihood of you wanting to give up.

Of course, the key to a great golf game is having a great golf swing. Having the perfect golf swing consists of many things. But, one thing you need to do is to have the right aim.

A lot of golfers put feet to the right of their target and eventually swing too far to the left. The best way to position yourself is to have your toes parallel to the target line, with the club head aiming in the direction you want the ball to go. On the same note, if you really want a good distance swing, then you will have to get some force behind it. While strength is essential to getting the right power, your swing also plays a part in this. The way to generate the optimum amount of power is to turn so that your left shoulder is over your right foot on the backswing. So as you can tell, changing into a good golf player is just as important as playing the game itself. However, no matter what anybody says to you, you must believe that you can do it because anybody can do well at golf if they practice a lot.
