Get Rid Of Your Slice Forever!

I was a big slicer and did not know how to draw the ball.

Someone told me a simple trick and it has completely changed my game. Now I can drive the ball right down the middle with a nice draw on the end. If I need a hook I can get that, too. It not only works with the driver but all of my other clubs as well.

This simple technique is easy to learn. It won't take long at all to get comfortable with it.

Here it is! When you draw the club back, make sure that you keep your elbow inside. You may slightly rub it against your side as you go back. Then, just come through the ball and you've got it. I guarantee you it will draw the ball. If you want a little more hook, just roll your wrists over slightly as you hit the ball.

That’s it! Simple, easy and it works! All for better golf!

Golf Is A Game

If you forget this you will never enjoy it. In fact, it may ruin your life. I got my neighbor interested in playing golf. It wasn't long until he was taking off work, neglecting his family and spending all of his time on the golf course. Fortunately, I was able to talk with him and get him to see what was happening before it was too late.

A game is something you do as a diversion. It is not your life. It is not what you live for. It is not the most important thing in the world to you. It is not the only thing you ever think about.

Games are for having fun, relaxing, having a good time. If you take the game too seriously, you will only get frustrated and quit. There goes all that money you spent on clubs! Take it easy and see what you can do. Don't worry if you're not as good as Tiger Woods. Who is?

Forgetting that your playing a game may cause you to lose the friendship of your golfing buddies. You will start telling them to be quiet and stand still. You will argue about every little thing. You will be more concerned about your score than how you're treating your friends.

Learning that playing golf is just a game will give you many days of enjoyment for a long time. Take in the beautiful views that you will find at most golf courses. Wait for the excitement of making that long putt. Smile when you hit the green with your 4 iron. Who knows you might be lucky enough to get a hole in one!

Golf is a game. Play it for better living!
