Well the weather forecast this weekend has given a cold one! Some local areas are actually due snow!
Therefore we want you all to be prepared. We have a winter wall full of goodies including hats, gloves, snudes, hand warmers, plus much more winter essentials to make you enjoy the winter golf! So this week when you come up, grab yourself 1 item to prepare yourself, even if its a hat come and get ready. You will see what difference it makes just being prepared.
Have a look at out tips to help you get through:
Winter Golf Tip #1 - Walk don't drive
Don't use a cart in winter, you will get cold and your swing will suffer. Walk to stay warm
Winter Golf Tip #2 – Warm hands
Ways to keep your hands warm - Velcro or otherwise, attach mits to your trolly so you can put your hands straight in as you push. Become Tommy Two Gloves for the winter. US PGA Tour player Tommy Gainey always wears a glove on each hand regardless of the weather. Winter gloves have improved considerably in recent years, I use a pair of Forgan winter gloves and find I still have good feel.
Carry some hand warmers in your pocket.
Winter Golf Tip #3 – Know your winter club distances
Check your club distances now in readiness for winter - go to the practice ground or GET GAPPED IN THE STUDIO and use the practice feature on your golf GPS to accurately measure your distances for each club.
You will find your distances are significantly less in cold winter weather and little ground run.
Winter Golf Tip #4 – Ensure a solid set up on winter tee mats
Widen your stance slightly to form a more solid base on slippery tee mats. Don't assume the mat is lined up correctly for the hole. Pick your line and address accordingly ignoring the line indicated by the position of the mat.
Winter Golf Tip #5 - Allow for soft greens
Unless it is frosty then you will get little if any run on green approaches, so factor this into your club choice.
