MANAGE YOUR GOLF GAME EP 1: OFF THE TEE

Trying to hit as many fairways as possible which is extremely difficult and every player from world no 1 down to your novice player is always working on this.

But as long as you have a clear view to the green, your not in the jungle rough, or in a bunker and your within 20 yards of your expected average drive that’s good enough. 

As you can see the number of fairways hit is just over 50% so please mange those exceptions so you stay calm

Now if you want to improve then you need to work on this which takes time, but in that process stay positive and realistic.

So we have 2 easy adjustments you can make at set up –

1 –  Strike (adjust the height of the tee peg – higher or lower
2 – Controlling the club angle (ball position – forward or back)

These adjustments are very minor and will affect the launch direction and strike so try a few different positions over a minimum off 10 balls each time and things will change.
