What are some of the best books on golf for beginners?
And as mentioned above, TIGER WOODS: How I Play Golf also contains the chapter, How to Master the Mind, which covers some very interesting aspects of Tiger's mental approach to the game. This is an outstanding publication for any professional or would-be golfer.
Is Tiger Woods'book a rehash of Old Golf Digest articles?
I don't see why Tiger was supposed to exclude (or re-write and re-photograph) great pieces previously included in issues of Golf Digest (which probably represents less than 1% of the book). To say this book is a rehash of old Golf Digest articles is flat-out wrong (I also subscribe to Golf Digest).
Where can I read golf books while on the road?
Besides eBooks, golf websites such as Golf Digest and Golf Week, forums on Reddit or The Sand Trap, and golf blogs from our website and others can all help you get you golf fix in while you[re on the road.
Did Tiger Woods practice hitting flop shots into blackout drapes?
Well, you might think so, however, Tiger Woods was frequently known to practice hitting flop shots into the blackout drapes of his hotel rooms while he was on the road.

How to find inconsistencies in golf swing?
By recording and analyzing your swing multiple times you can compare shots that feel and look good with ones that dont. This can be as simple as watching yourself stand up during your backswing, or as complicated as analyzing the swing plane of your shot. Either way, the person who knows your swing the best is you, and you might be surprised how much you can learn by just watching yourself swing a club at the range. While this is often not a one-stop-shop for perfecting your swing, discovering something at the range makes it much easier for a golf pro or a friend to look for the same problem when they watch you play. Sometimes getting someone elses insight on a problem you found in your swing can provide the small reminder needed reinforce a new swing change.
How many tees to sink in a golf cup?
Materials: 3-5 golf tees, golf ball, a golf cup Works On: Reading greens and breaks, confidence and composure on longer putts Process: Sink 3-5 golf tees in the green forming a line that gets incrementally further from the hole. Increments are discretionary but 1-2 feet or half a club length are what I tend to gravitate towards. From here, begin at the closest tee and after each made putt, move to the next tee back until you[ve sank a putt from each distance. However, on each miss, return to the starting tee.
Does the number of putts matter?
Well, technically, yes. But the number of putts, similarly to the number of swings at the range is not what matters when it comes to improving. The two thing that will truly drive your improvement are your focus and the quality of your time spent. We can convince you of this using a situation outside of golf. Have you ever been in a conversation with someone where you just had something else on your mind? Or maybe you[ve caught yourself responding or acknowledging someone else without thinking about it? Ill bet this has happened to just about every one of us and I want you to think about what happened during those moments. Can you what was said, or what you did during that time? Ill bet you can[t. This is exactly what happens to your mind and body during an unfocused practice session. I mean let[s be honest, you[ve set aside your valuable free time to go practice, so go one step further and make sure you actually get something out of that time. If you head to the putting green and slap putts at all the holes around the green while you think about your weekend plans, whats for dinner, or anything else, you will notget anything out of your practice session. This, is exactly why we use drills. Drills, or at least the ones I have included later in this guide, are all designed to ensure you get quality reps. This means the drill constantly forces you to focus on what youre doing. This keeps you engaged and facilitates the improvements that you are looking for. So how do these drills do this? Lets go over what makes a drill so effective, so you can evaluate new ones you come across.
Is chipping harder than putting?
conditions that you otherwise may not have since good chipping is often times, much harder to quantify than good putting. Thankfully, this drill helps minimize that problem.
Is golf a time intensive game?
I get it, golf is a very time intensive game to play. And while you might have crafted the best practice plan in the world and found the perfect set of drills to improve your game, sometimes theres nothing you can do when life gets in the way. So, what should you do if you find yourself outside of your normal practice groove? Well, assuming youre still looking to work on your game while youre away, you need to find a creative way to get your practice in. If you[re having a hard time coming up with ideas here are a couple easy things you can do to get your golf fix in while youre on the road.
