So we know it is not "officially" winter; however, with the chance of snow tonight and tomorrow we know it is coming. Our Director of Golf, PGA Professional, Dennis Clark shares golf tips for the winter season.
There are things you can do to keep your game sharp in the off-season. Short of going to Florida on a regular basis, let’s consider a few of them:
- Stay in Shape: The best thing any of us can do is stretch and strengthen our bodies. Pilates seems to be a very popular thing on the PGA Tour these days. There are a number of golf specific stretches within that discipline.
- Train New Habits: Hitting into a net is effective if and only if you are practicing the right way. Many golfers groove BAD habits by practicing their old, flawed swings. The off-season is a great time to train NEW habits by doing drills. Take a fall lesson and seek efficient drills from the pro.
- Television and magazines are fun but not always helpful. Knowing which of the tips applies to YOUR swing is vital.
- If you purchase new equipment, make sure it is fitted properly!
- Stay warm, healthy and safe.
I’ll see you in the spring!
