Getting Ready for your Round
July 2nd, 2007 | Written by Editor | Category: Golf Tips |
Before you play, you should warm up on the driving range and the putting green. The final thing to do before teeing off is putting. Because the practice green is usually near the first tee, you won’t have to rush to make your tee time. Rushing is a poor way to begin your round.Putting is crucial to scoring. Gauge the speed of the greens with some long putts. Proper speed prevents three-putts.
Use just one ball. It will force you to concentrate on each putt so you can learn from each stroke. You’ll be prepared when you take your first putt on the first green.
Got five minutes?
Sometimes, you only have five minutes before your tee time. When you’re pressed for time, limit your warm-up to the putting green. Hit a few long putts to get a feel for the speed of the greens. Then hit four- to six-footers-makable putts. You want to go to the first tee with the confidence born of having seen the ball go in the hole.
