Whether hitting into the wind or flying into the wind, the resistance of the wind has a great effect on the flight. In fact, without that resistance, flight would be impossible.

Those Weekend Golf Guys ·

2020/10/25

Some folks seem to be surprised that Golf has flourished so well during this Covid-19 quarantine period. We really shouldn't be surprised.

Anyone want to hazard a guess the penalty for landing a ball to close to unexploded ordinance? We also share the labeling code for ProV1 balls so you can tell just hpw

Don't write any checks your abilities cannot cash! We all know the guy who hits a decent drive to start a par 5. He strikes it 210, right down the middle. Now he stands there taking multiple practice swings with his 3 wood because he's 240 from the green and he's waiting for the group ahead to clear. They finally move off the green. He addresses the ball and takes one of those swings. The ball goes about 50 yards, never getting more than 10 feet off the ground. "We waited for that?" you

Do You Have A Half Fast Golf Swing? Probably. In the search for more distance we try many things from buying new clubs that promise more distance, to golf balls that promise more distance, to swing techniques that promise more distance. See the pattern formining here? we all want more distance and too often fall for scams that seem to good to be true. There is one fool proof way to guarantee more distance: a faster head speed.

I once saw a sign that read "We aim to please. You aim too, please". The sign was in a men's restroom but the sentiment is the same here. Most of us do not hit the ball where we think we are going to hit the ball for one simple reason: our aim sucks! Aiming is not as hard as we make it out to be so follow Jeff's few simple suggestions and be amazed now that you are hitting shots right to where you thought they should go.
