Do you suffer from a sick feeling in you stomach when your ball settles down in the deep rough either greenside or within 100 yards? A chip shot is necessary when you are a few yards from the putting green or surface. This shot is usually played with a low-lofted club in order to get the ball rolling on the green as quickly as possible. Proper Golf Setup and Posture for this Shot, Follow this Procedure: 1. Select a club with low loft (usually anything from a 6 iron to a pitching wedge. The idea is to allow the ball to just carry onto the putting surface and roll the proper distance to the hole. 2. Select a target on the green to aim for ( this is usually a slight discoloration of the grass or some mark on the green ) and estimate where you would like the ball to stop. 3. Grip the club down towards the shaft, close to the end of the grip or wherever you feel comfortable choking down to. Typically the more you choke down the more control you will have but the shorter the distance the ball will roll. 4. Step close to the golf ball so that it is no more than a few inches from your feet. 5. Place most of your weight to your left side or left hip socket (your right side if you are left-handed). 6. Use a putting stroke to swing the club back and forth placing a descending blow on the back of the ball. 7. Rock the shoulders up and down by swinging the arms, while keeping the lower body steady and the wrists quiet. Tempo is most important. Do not rush the stroke, same distance back as through, just like putting. Other Chipping Golf Setup Tips: You should try to keep your hands in front of the ball so that the hands lead the ball into impact. Keep your wrists firm, especially the left one for right handers. If you are in deep rough make this adjustment. The deep grass can make the golfball behave unpredictably because the grass gets caught between the clubface and the ball. This will call the ball to either jump out of the grass with no backspin or loft so expect the flight of the ball to be lower than normal. Grip the club firmly so that the rough doesn&#39;t twist the club on the swing. Tip the club angle up so the toe is the only part touching the ground. This will minimize contact with the grass as much as possible. The best way to handle this shot is to place the ball as far back in your stance as possible and make a steeper angle of attack with the ball by hinging your wrists slightly but very quickly. The timing of this shot requires some practice. Select the club that will the ball rolling on the green as quickly as possible. When it is windy or you are faced with a downhill shot, or on fast greens, you should chip the ball instead of pitching it to better controll the distance. &lt;/span&gt;</description><link>http://geocitiescommialinam.blogspot.com/2008/07/golf-tips-on-how-to-chip-golf-ball-from.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (HAUMI CONSULTING)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014389634689458877.post-7856058231898601258</guid><pubDate>Tue, 01 Jul 2008 08:34:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-07-01T01:35:20.194-07:00</atom:updated><title></title><description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Common Swing Faults With Physical Fixes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:lucida grande;&quot;&gt;All the above are reasons why a player&#39;s swing faults are hard to improve long term. Aside from blatant lack of skill, muscle imbalance is by far the most common source of altered neuromechanics and both poor and/or inconsistent swing mechanics. Teaching pros need to be able to identify and correct length-tension relationships. Length-tension relationships (the balance between muscles and groups of muscles) represent and dictate both the real-time function of the working joints and how well the body executes the brain.s swing command. In the presence of muscle length-tension imbalances, what may be a very good motor engram leaving the brain often manifests as a swing with notable faults. A player with muscle imbalance is most easily identified by his/her poor posture. Altered spinal curvatures disrupt spinal mechanics, leading to compensatory movement at other joints. When the player.s muscle balance and postural alignment are optimal, there is minimal engram (motor command sequence) disruption. In this state, good motor programming results in long term correction of swing faults and minimizes chances of orthopedic injury. One of the main reasons for muscle imbalance is the way our muscles are designed. We have muscles that are classified as TONIC and muscles that are classified as PHASIC. The physiological reality of how these two muscle types react to both physical and mental stress is what underlies many chronic swing faults that persist despite having spent large sums of money on elite coaching and high-tech clubs! Tonic muscles are ideally suited to postural duties such as holding an address posture and an optimal swing axis. Tonic muscles react to aberrant physical or mental stress by shortening and tightening. Phasic muscles are more suited to dynamic movements such as actually swinging and accelerating the club. Phasic muscles react to aberrant physical or mental stress by lengthening and weakening. One of the key reasons for the difference responses between the muscle types is the threshold of stimulation; tonic muscles have a low threshold of stimulation, while phasic muscles have a high threshold of stimulation Additionally, as we age (beyond 40) our phasic abdominal and gluteal (butt) muscles tend to weaken, further encouraging muscle imbalance. Experienced golfers often have a very good mental image, or consciousness of the ideal swing, and try with all intent to execute one. Because tonic muscles have a lower threshold of stimulation than phasic muscles and tend to override commands to antagonistic and synergistic phasic muscles, which have a high threshold of stimulation, the physical image or expression of the motor command may not represent the mental image used to generate the movement. Here the tonic lumbar erectors and hip flexors override the phasic abdominal and gluteal musculature, pulling the player into an over-swing; not only does the player frequently not realize he/she is doing this, back pain is a common byproduct. Note that muscle imbalance is most easily identified as poor posture (the key is recognizing what is poor posture versus good posture!). When a player develops any degree of muscle imbalance, the swing motor engram that leaves the player.s brain is altered in proportion to the degree of facilitation and muscle imbalance that exists in the musculoskeletal system. Additionally, each time a player executes a swing in the presence of muscle imbalance, the engram is progressively altered and the muscle imbalance is further facilitated. This is one reason that golfers play for five or even ten years with minimal improvement in their handicap; even though their understanding of the game is improving, their level of neuromechanical imbalance is of greater influence on their game! THERE IS A SOLUTION! You can make significant gains toward a better swing by simply stretching the shortened tonic muscles just before you play. &lt;/span&gt;</description><link>http://geocitiescommialinam.blogspot.com/2008/07/common-swing-faults-with-physical-fixes.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (HAUMI CONSULTING)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014389634689458877.post-2346969347464619927</guid><pubDate>Tue, 01 Jul 2008 08:04:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-07-01T01:34:03.982-07:00</atom:updated><title></title><description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:georgia;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Golf Swing Tips To Improve Your Golf Game&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;The following golf swing tips will help you to build your skill level and your confidence to hit the golfball more consistently. These are high level or big picture tips so be sure to check the rest of our site for more low level specific tips Golf swing tip &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;#1: Maintain a positive image of hitting the golfball. Remember the last time you played this hole and made a good swing at the golfball. Negative self-talk will adversely impact your game. Golf swing tip &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;#2: Develop a good tough mental attitude. Confidence in your ability to put a bad shot behind you and move on, turn the page in the book in your head to hit a good golf shot. Golf swing tip &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;#3: Practice does make almost perfect. You do not need to go to the driving range to lower your scores. You can practice putting and chipping on your carpet in your house. Chipping and pitching to a close target in your backyard are proven to be effective ways to drop strokes from your short game. Practice your full swing in front of a mirror, or in the back yard. Go through your preshot routine many times untill it becomes second nature. When you practice your fullswing check to see if you finish the swing in balance, if not make some adjustments in your setup. Golf swing tip &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;#4: Learn how to play competitive golf with a playing partner by having a match. This will help you become a tough competitor and ingrain the kill instinct that you need to win. Golf swing tip &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;#5: Purchase golf swing aids or a golf training aid to help groove your swing. My favorite is the speed stik, and the medicus. Golf swing tip &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;#6: Take a lesson with a golf pro. Ask to have your golf swing videotaped. This will help if you are a visual learner to see the weaknesses in your swing. If you do not care for the style of the teaching pro then find another. There are many pros and many styles of teaching - find the one that is right for you. Golf swing tip &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;#7: Reading a golf swing tip website such as http://www.golfgist.com will help learn new golf swing tips to practice. Look for new articles and tips that may work for you. We are all different and find different tips work well for some and poorly for others. Golf swing tip &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;#8: Watch golf video(s) or a PGA tounament and learn from the pros. By watching a pro you will come to realize the importance of the preshot routine to consistent play. The pros do have many diiferent swing and setup keys, see if you can identify them and then try them out for yourself to see if it makes a difference. Golf swing tip&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt; #9: Work on a few golf swing tips each week until you have mastered them. Pay special attention to putting tips and practice your putting the most. This is where most matches are won and lost. Golf swing tip #10: Focus on your swing Tempo - say 1,2,3,4 to yourself during your swing. 1 is the target, 2 is the golfball, 3 is the backswing, and 4 is the downswing. Try these golf swing tips and keep a journal of those that seem to help improve your game. &lt;/span&gt;</description><link>http://geocitiescommialinam.blogspot.com/2008/07/golf-swing-tips-to-improve-your-golf.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (HAUMI CONSULTING)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014389634689458877.post-7602291155894922689</guid><pubDate>Mon, 09 Jun 2008 03:39:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-06-12T02:50:49.921-07:00</atom:updated><title></title><description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:courier new;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://cnn.com/&quot;&gt;Golf Tips &lt;/a&gt;on How to Chip a Golf Ball(from Deep Rough) &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:courier new;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:courier new;&quot;&gt;Follow these simple steps to making your chip shots roll a more more reliable distance more consistently.

It&#39;s not possible to gain Hogan&#39;s accuracy from just a single golf tip because Hogan&#39;s secret was in the process he used to control his golf swing to become one of the most accurate golfers of all time. This is also the very reason his secret has been an enigma for over 40 years. Ben Hogan&#39;s secret was his extraordinary ability to focus. This was not a gift from heaven. No, Hogan spent long hours perfecting his focus technique. Hogan would take hours to hit just forty balls. He would hit a ball and spend a few minutes to rewind the shot in his mind and go over every aspect of it. Before he hit the next ball he knew everything he did right and wrong with that shot and was ready to hit the next one even better. Hogan fine tuned every swing until it was perfect. He didn&#39;t want any bad swings to creep into his system and create any bad habits. His swing is not one to emulate unless you are built like him, but his methods will make any golfer strike the ball well. If you read very carefully, you can see in Hogan&#39;s books just what he did. The problem is that you must understand the swing and his process before you can properly interpret what he wrote. It was only after discovering and perfecting Hogan&#39;s system that I re-read his books for probably the tenth time, and realized that he did share his secret, but that he was looking at it from a stand point of someone who already understood. Hogan&#39;s swing secret was not just the balance and setup...it&#39;s about how he achieved and controlled balance during his swing and how you can get similar results using his control methods. The key phrase is how he controlled his swing movement. Anyone can make a great swing once in a while, but Hogan was known for doing it almost every time. Hogan said that the game is played keeping the weight on the inside halves of the feet, but that is as far as he went. It&#39;s too bad because this statement is the key and the starting point for understanding Hogan&#39;s secret of control. His secret? The swing is controlled from the feet. I have taken pros and blindfolded them, leaving them to monitor their swing completely by feel and been able to get them to not only to strike the ball purely, but to shape their shots accurately using only feedback from their feet. Most of the pros on tour use his methods, except they use them subconsciously. Hogan took the process to the conscious level so he could monitor and correct his swing in motion. Today&#39;s pros have been convinced that they shouldn&#39;t think about anything during the swing, but it has been proven that the mind will not think about nothing. Like it or not, your mind works all of the time, as shown in your dreams. The trick with the golf swing is to focus in such a way so that those thoughts are completely visual, thereby never bothering the brain with any distracting conscious thoughts. Do you wonder why Tiger no longer uses a guru? It&#39;s because he is working on the same process. When he perfects it, and he is close, he&#39;ll be unstoppable. Anyone who wants to give Tiger a game in the future will have to know this information or fall by the wayside. How fast does it work? I have shown high handicap golfers the very first balance routine right on the golf course and watched as most of them immediately started hitting their shots more accurately.(GolfGist.com)&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>http://geocitiescommialinam.blogspot.com/2008/06/ben-hogans-real-golf-secret.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (HAUMI CONSULTING)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014389634689458877.post-533039508066458156</guid><pubDate>Fri, 06 Jun 2008 06:17:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-06-06T00:04:42.985-07:00</atom:updated><title></title><description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:courier new;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Seven Technology Factors to Improve Your Golf Game&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:courier new;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:courier new;&quot;&gt;We are all looking for that little extra something that is going to make this wonderful game a little bit more forgiving. Here are a few suggestions: Technology Factor #1 . Shorter Driver Length and More Loft Today.s drivers that are sold .off the rack. are made in lofts from 8-11 degrees, and in lengths of 45. to 45 1/2.. However, only 10% of all golfers have the required swing mechanics and athletic ability to warrant playing such equipment. If you swing over the top or have an inconsistent tempo, and your wrist to floor measurement is less than 40., then a 45. driver is probably too long for you. If you.re swing speed is less than 95 mph and you are using a driver with a loft of 9-11 degrees, then you are probably not maximizing your distance off the tee. If you hit a 3 wood better and more consistent than a driver, you can definitely take advantage of higher lofted drivers. Technology Factor #2 . Closed Wood Face Angle Wood face angle is the BEST equipment correction device for driver accuracy. Face angle is the direction the face points when the head is placed in playing position or soled. It is a design factor that helps correct minor swing path faults or the inability of the golfer to square the clubface at impact. How many golfers do you think have that problem? Most golfers with driver problems either push or slice the ball off the tee. Yet, when you purchase .off the rack. drivers you have very little opportunity to alter the face angle. They just don.t offer that as an option. Most drivers will only have a closed face angle of 1 degree. A face angle with a 2-4 degree closed face angle will cut down a slice from 5-15 yards. Technology Factor #3 . Set Make-Up Today.s 7 iron has the same loft as a 5 iron of 15 years ago. Ever wonder why it is so difficult to hit today.s 3 and 4 irons? With today.s stronger lofted long irons, many golfers are going to higher lofted woods or hybrids. Which one is best for you? That depends. If you are currently having success with higher lofted woods, then staying with woods makes perfect sense. However, if you are not consistent with the fairway woods, then the shorter lengths of the .hybrid. clubs may make you more consistent. Each option has its pros and cons. The lower and deeper center of gravity of the wood heads will tend to hit the ball higher and are easier to hit. But the shorter lengths of the hybrids should be easier to hit on center and with more control. Either way it is probably time to get rid of your 3 and 4 irons and take a serious look at higher lofted fairway woods or hybrids. Technology Factor #4 . Use the Most Flexible Shaft You Can Control. By using a more flexible shaft, you will probably hit the ball a little higher, the shot will feel a little bit more solid, and the face might close a little more at impact. These are all things that will allow you to score better. By using a stiffer shaft you will probably hit the ball a little lower and with less distance, and the impact will be slightly harsher while the clubface may remain slightly open. Therefore, consider dropping down a flex and you might just be rewarded with a tighter shot dispersion and lower scores. Technology Factor #5 . Use Cavity Backed Irons Cavity backed irons truly are more forgiving on off center hits. You have probably heard this before, but take a cavity-backed iron and muscle-backed iron to the course and take a 10 shots with each and plot the results (when the greens keeper is not around). Plotting these shots will show you which type of iron performs best for you. I.m sure you will see better results with the cavity-backed iron. Technology Factor #6 . Go With a Wider Sole on the Sand Wedge If you tend to leave the ball in the sand from digging too deep under the ball, look for a sand wedge with a much wider (thicker) sole than on your current sand wedge. Also, if you tend to have a very steep downward swing plane, look for a wide sole angle and more bounce to get out of the sand more consistently. Sole angle will allow the club head to create lift as it travels through the sand to get the ball out. Bounce allows the leading edge of the head to glide through the sand because the trailing edge is actually lower than the leading edge. Having a wider sole angel and more bounce together creates favorable conditions to get out of the sand consistently. Technology Factor #7 . Add weight to your Putter . In the Grip More golfers are starting to notice a more consistent stroke with a heavier putter. But not just by adding weight to the head. I.m talking about counterbalancing your putter by adding weight to the grip end. I will be talking more about this in future articles, but many of my customers are noticing huge performance gains by adding weight to the butt end of the putter. The method is called .Balance-Certified Golf. and Custom Clubs of Frederick is one of only a few shops in the area that can perform this service.(GolfGist.com)&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>http://geocitiescommialinam.blogspot.com/2008/06/seven-technology-factors-to-improve.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (HAUMI CONSULTING)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014389634689458877.post-3065487991893921767</guid><pubDate>Fri, 06 Jun 2008 06:15:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-06-06T00:05:33.922-07:00</atom:updated><title></title><description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:courier new;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;A Good Golf Pre-Shot Routine: Necessity for Every Golfer Ian Hughes&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:courier new;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:courier new;&quot;&gt;PGA Teaching Professional, GolfTEC You might ask yourself, &quot;Why do I need a pre-shot routine?&quot; Or for that matter, &quot;What is a pre shot routine?&quot; A pre-shot routine is quite simply the habits or actions one takes in the few seconds before the golf swing is made. So, why is a good routine necessary? It is important because it allows us to relax, and it enables us to develop something that is repeatable in a game where even the best players in the world struggle with constancy, accuracy, and repetition. The next question to ask yourself is, &quot;Do I have a pre-shot routine?&quot; If the answer is &quot;yes&quot;, is it a good one? If the answer is &quot;no&quot;, your golf game will benefit from developing one. Let&#39;s take a look at some components of professional&#39;s pre-shot routines vs. amateur&#39;s routines to see how yours measures up. The difference that I see between most amateurs and professionals lies in the quality of their pre-shot routines and their ability to repeat their routine time in and time out. Most amateurs will hastily walk up to the ball and then make two practice swings, then one time they will make no practice swings, and then waggle three times the next. These random actions breed inconsistency. Meanwhile, professionals will go through the same repeatable course of action each time. This enables them to put their mind at rest. By knowing you have done your routine thousands of times, it allows the mind to focus on the actual shot at hand, thereby eliminating negative thoughts, which wreak havoc on most amateur golfers. A good pre-shot routine will also distract you from the pressure of each shot. You can concentrate on repeating your routine, rather than worry about the possible negative outcomes of the shot at hand. A great example of this would be David Toms&#39; performance during the 2001 PGA Championship at the Atlanta Athletic Club. Toms had a 12-foot putt on the 72nd hole to win his first major championship. Toms was able to focus on the task at hand by relying on his pre-shot routine. It enabled him to put his pounding heart and shaking hands aside and concentrate on his speed, line and stroke. When the ball was halfway to the hole, Toms knew he had sunk the putt and won his first major championship. A good pre-shot routine is beneficial to players of all abilities. Not all pre-shot routines should be the same, but yours should be one that is repeatable and relaxing. Here are a few tips to work with to develop a good pre-shot routine. Start behind the golf ball and envision your target. Once you have focused on a target, make a practice swing with your eyes remaining focused on your target. As you swing, envision the perfect result from your shot. Now step up to the ball and take your address. Once you are comfortable with your address, take a deep breath, releasing the tension in your body as you exhale. Finally, take one last look at target to improve focus and let it rip.

To get out of a bunker in the fairway you should hit the ball not the sand first. If you hit the ball cleanly and pick it, it will fly far, if you hit the ball and pinch it against the sand, the golfball will come out and fly lower than normal. If you should hit the sand and then the ball, you have played a greenside bunker shot. Pot bunkers are the name of the game in Scotland, and they are not easy to get the ball out. Imagine staring at a wall of sand or railroads ties 8 feet high, and a pin 150 yards away! How in the @$%@$% are you going to get out of that one? Quite often players will have to reverse course and pitch the ball out either sideways or back towards the tee. A guaranteed lost stroke on the hole, and quite often the majors are won or lost by a single stroke. Fortunately for us state side, pot bunkers are uncommon hazards, especially when it comes to fairways bunkers. Occasionally you will see pot bunkers around the greens, and if you ever have played PGA West Stadium course you know what I am talking about. Fairway bunkers tend not to be to deep and have a small lip if any. But what is the best way to advance the ball forward? It actually is quite easy. Phil, Corey, and a few other pros have told me how and it works! First off, a fairway bunker is completely different than a green side bunker. Green side bunker shots require you to open the clubface, open and place the ball forward in your stance. You will .bounce. the club and hit sand before the ball. This is not the case in fairway bunkers. A fairway bunker requires you to hit the ball and not the sand. Here is an easy way to set up properly for a great fairway bunker shot. Select the normal club for the distance of the shot you are hitting. I would suggest staying away from fairway woods unless you are a very low handicapper. Place the ball in the middle of your stance. Plant your feet firmly in the sand. Thick sand will require you to choke down on the club slightly to compensate for your feet digging in the sand. Align your clubface, feet, and shoulders towards your target. You are now in the proper position to hit a fairway bunker shot. At this point take your normal swing path and attempt to hit the ball only. The key to the swing is hitting the ball first and not the sand. Jack was a great fairway bunker player and quite often he would be able to hit the same shot from a good lie in a bunker as from the fairway.
