6 Golf Tips For Beginners “Wet Behind The Ears”
By admin | February 11, 2008
Are you a complete novice? Here are 6 very basic golf tips for beginners who really are completely new to the game:
1. The objective of the game of golf is to get your ball into each of the 18 holes on the course in as few shots as you can.
2. Each hole has a par number indicating the maximum number of shots you should take to remain at par. In other words, the number of shots which a good golfer is expected to take for the hole.
3. Each golf course includes a number of obstacles which are designed to make your game more difficult. The majority of these obstacles are man-made, such as sand bunkers, but there are normally also a number of natural obstacles like trees, bushes, streams and ponds.
4. Whatever your budget, there will normally be a golf course in your area which you will find is reasonably priced. The majority of courses will have 18 holes, but you will also often find 9 hole courses, which are perfect for beginners.
5. An excellent place to tweak your technique is at your local driving range where practice shots can be made at. Make sure that you practice both long and short shots, as well as putting.
6. Make the most of every shot at your driving range by aiming for a specific target. This will help you to gain both better distance and greater control over the ball.
