Golf Instruction

My latest read was The Golf Book by Steve Newell, which sells new for about $40, but which you can purchase used for less than $5. However, that discount is not indicative of what awaits you inside The Golf Book. Newell begins with a riveting history of the game itself, and then he smoothly transitions into the history and details of the game’s most prestigious tournaments.

That serves as a launching point for discussing the various famous courses around the world and considering the key events played out on them. I think what I love most about the book is the diversity of the material. I consider myself quite knowledgeable about the game’s history, but there were many interesting stories here that I had never heard of. All golf fans should add this book to their queue.

Many golfers want to know what the single most important thing you can improve upon is at any given point in time. In answering those golfers, it should be noted that your golf swing plane is the factor that most closely impacts your handicap and scores in any given round. When your swing plane is on point, you will be able to consistently find the fairway. If it’s not, you will have a significant amount of trouble.

So how do you improve your golf swing plane? That depends upon what is wrong with it. Some people come over the ball, which causes a massive slice. Other people have a tendency to swing around the golf ball, which can produce a hook. The best approach is to swing straight through the ball, as this produces clear, consistent results.
