Easy Golf Tutorials

Tiger Woods has been very popular because of this wonderful sport he masterfully plays - golf. Scotland was the venue for the earliest golf game ever recorded. The very first time golf was recorded when James II stopped it in 1457 because it interfered with archery. The earliest compilation of golf regulations were put together for Edinburgh Golfers in March 1744. The first ever golf tournament is the Open Championship, which started in October 1860 in Ayrshire, Scotland.

So if you're thinking about getting into golf, you need to get yourself to a driving range and start familiarizing yourself with the game. You can also opt to be coached by a professional if you like. Choosing this would be quite expensive but its a good venture.

One thing that you must learn before jumping into the golf wagon is the basic regulations. You can actually get a copy of the official rules of golf at the USGA website and have it printed so you can browse through it in your spare time. After reading the rules, there's a big possibility that you'll improve with your swing. To even make your game better, check out the advises that follow.

Number one on the list is you should be aware how to align the clubface. Alignment of the clubface that is not proper is what most first time golfers fail at. You can check the alignment by looking behind the ball. This way you can see the whole hole and you can make the perfect shot.

Then, you must be able to get the right club. Having the perfect club on hand will make you feel confident that you'll make the right swing.

Finally, you must have that great grip. This basically translates to a strong grip. You'll have this solid grip if you hold the club with your gloved hand and emphasize the handle's placement in the fingers between the first knuckle and the palm. Then, you should apply the ungloved hand so it wraps comfortably around the handle. Once this is done, the thumb and index fingers of both hands must create two Vs that should point the right side of the chest or right shoulder.

Now that you are already packed with all these relevant golfing information, you'll surely be playing golf like a pro in no time.
