Lining Your Putts

November 29th, 2007 at 12:42am Under Drills+ Setting Up

Most of the time, it is very hard to aim your putts correctly. I will be sharing a little trick with you to help you aim your putts better. It’s called “Lining the Ball”. To do this, you mark your ball wherever it is on the green with a ball marker, and then you’ll notice that there is some company logo on your ball like, “Nike”, “Loco”, “Noodle”, etc. Using the line with the company logo, get on your knees, and position the ball right behind the ball marker so that the company’s logo line is pointing towards the pin. So if there is no break on the green, aim it directly at the hole, but otherwise aim it right or left depending on whatever way the break is going. Then, on your putter head, you will see a mini line in the center of it. Align that line with the logo’s line on the ball. Then after taking your ball marker out, go ahead and hit your putt. This should help you get your putts closer to the hole.

Setting Up to Drive a Ball

November 28th, 2007 at 12:41am Under Driving+ Setting Up

On a regular golf course, on most of the holes you play, you will be needing to hit your driver. Whenever setting up your shot to use your driver, there are two simple rules you must remember. One is to never have your golf tee with the ball leaning one way or the other. Try to make it as straight up as possible so that the ball won’t pop way up or just roll on the ground (It happens to the best of us). The second thing to remember is when you line up to hit your ball, make sure the ball is lined up with your big toe on your front foot. That is probably the most important thing to remember.  These simple rules will make or break your drive.
