What is a good way to practice golf over the winter?
Winter's here and the golf season is over, but I have tryouts for the golf team in March. Since no courses will be open until after then, how can I keep from getting "stiff" over the winter. What are some good ways to practice?
You can find a indoor driving range or even an outdoor because they have turf instead of real grass and then you can practice your drive. You can also go to Putt-Putt and this is like the BEST way to practice your putting because you have to read the greens and negotiate harder slopes/turns. Use your real putter though. Go to a pro shop and use their swing analyzer and this can tell you if your swing is wrong. I recommend the Medicus Dual-Hinge driver and the 5-iron. These have helped mold my swing and I hit longer, straighter shots consistently. You'll have to get out there on the course some time in the cold if you want to really practice. Just don't play a full 18 or even 9. You can use the practice greens and bunkers even the driving range if you club has one. Just focus on the fundamentals of golf and try not let yourself get too wrapped up in details. Go for control, and in golf Less is More. Hope this helps! Happy New Year and good luck to you in making the golf team in March!
