Golf Ruins Boredom

So you decided to just sit around for another year and watch the television for that ever expectant something. What ever it is that we are actually watching for is a surprise to me every time I think about it.

Not only does T/V steal precious time from us but eating, drinking and nearly everything else does as well. Now every golfer knows these things are not needed. Because there is GOLF!

An invention by the most intelligent of men of our past that not only fulfills all of our needs but also helps us enjoy television when and if we ever get to see it again because they show golfing on it as well.

Who would possibly think that walking around seemingly aimlessly looking for a little white dimpled ball somewhere in that sand , mud, grass or forest is remotely more enjoyable than being bored. Well it just is.

Take my word for it because the only option to that would be to go to your local public golf course with a friend or two or even your partner and play a round yourself. We know that will never happen as long as there is digital information flying through the air to give you something to watch on your precious box. Or will it? Go make me wrong.

What to Spend Time On When Chipping In the House

By Jamie Faidley


Most players do not like to practice and no golfer likes to be on the course when it's pouring down rain or when it's below freezing. So practicing when the weather isn't ideal is virtually out of the question. What do you do then if you are located in a place where winters go on for a couple of months and it's too cold to head out to the course? Well, you can keep your short game sharpened with only a few minutes a day working on your chipping. Here is how I practice chipping indoors:

If you are not a great chipper to being with, then probably you need to develop a better address position. A correct setup will make it easy for you to make a good swing on the ball. A bad one will lead you to make alterations during your swing to get back on track. Sound like a very bad idea? That is because it is.

The Easiest Way to Practice Your Set up IndoorsIndoors

It all starts with alignment. Check to be sure that your club face is pointing square to your target. On chip shots you've got an open position, so for a right-handed golfer your shoulders, hips, knees, and feet will all be facing left of your target.

Next, make sure your ball position is correct. You have got to hit the ball on your downswing. Don't try to get in contact with the ball when you're on the way up, or at some wondrous point where you downswing and upswing meet. How does one do this? By placing the ball 2 inches back of the center of your position. You actually won't have any choice but to hit the ball on the way down or move roughly to keep yourself from making a proper swing.

Your weight distribution is the final piece of the puzzle. Ensure that 60% of your weight is on your front foot, while 40% of your weight is on your back. Again, this guarantees that you hit the ball coming at a downward angle.
