Golf Tips To Help Sweeten Your Golf Game

Now, these are simple golf tips. But that doesn't make them any less powerful. I'm going to talk about golf equipment/clothing and it's importance in the game of golf. This is important to everyone, from beginners, to regular golfers. I played a while before I even payed attention to some of these details. I was a rebel when it came to these things. I know better now. If you are on the course to play good golf then you need these tips.

Ok, so here are the golf tips. They are in no particular order:

1) Wear golf shoes. Yes, I know to some it may not seem that important, as far as golf tips are concerned. But, once you play a while, you realize that your feet can slip when you are trying to hit the golf ball. This, of course, can cause problems with your accuracy and ability to hit the ball correctly. You meant to hit toward the green, but you lost your footing, and you hit it into a tree. See, this is one of those important golf tips.

Buy used golf shoes, or borrow a pair from a friend if you don't have the money right away to buy a pair. But, you can buy a pretty good pair at Wal-mart, for example, for around $40 (last pair I bought). Not bad. I would recommend buying something that is comfortable on your feet. You will be the person wearing them. If you have to, though, you may have to start out with tennis shoes until you can do better.

2) Wear a glove. Here is one of the areas, like with the golf shoes, that I had to play for a while to realize it probably is a good thing to wear a glove. This is one of the golf tips some people might tend to ignore, but don't do it. The club can slip in your hand and cause the ball to do things you didn't really plan on. The golf glove helps keep the club from slipping.

3) Keep your golf clubs clean. A clump of dirt on the head of a golf club can send a golf ball off in a different direction other than what you wanted, because the club face is no longer flat. So, have a towel and golf club cleaning accessories handy.

4) Keep your golf balls clean. This can also have unwanted affects on the balls direction and flight. Again, this is one of those golf tips you don't want to ignore. In fact, all of these tips are important.

5) Wear clothing that allows you to move freely, but doesn't get in your way. If you can't swing the club right because of your clothing, then you risk messing up your shots.

6) Have a ball marker and divot tool handy. A ball marker is a handy way to mark where your ball was on the green. And, be respectful and clean up your divots. This is one of those golf tips that not only can affect your game, it can affect the game of others.

7) Keep your equipment in good shape and replace or repair broken clubs. Things like a loose club heads can create problems with you golf game, like not getting solid contact with the ball, again, causing unwanted ball direction and flight.

Follow these golf tips and you will be on your way to some great golf games.
