  • Golf Set-up: Towel Alignment Aid

    Posted on February 14, 2014 by Grant in Drills, Golf Fundamentals, Golf Set-up.

      A great swing that’s pointed in the wrong direction is a bad shot. Training to align properly is a skill that doesn’t come naturally; most right-handed golfers tend to aim too far left with their shoulders and too far right with their feet at address. To break these bad alignment habits, you can use […]

  • Keep your Eye on the Ball on the Backswing

    Posted on February 12, 2014 by Grant in Golf Fundamentals, Swing.

    When hitting golf balls, make sure to keep your eye on the ball during your backswing. In these pictures, my 3-year old Nathan is demonstrating this fundamental. (I might be just a little bit proud of him!) Some golfers develop the habit of watching the club-head go back because they are trying to check their […]

  • Mental Game: Enjoy the intimidating golf shots

    Posted on February 10, 2014 by Grant in Golf Fundamentals, My Journey, The Mental Game.

    Every round of golf usually holds at least one hole or shot that can intimidate you. Whether it’s a forced carry over water, or a tee shot with out-of-bounds lining both sides of the fairway, inevitably you will face an intimidating shot. When I first started playing tournament golf, I found myself not enjoying those […]

  • Taking the Club Back Correctly on Pitch shots

    Posted on February 8, 2014 by Grant in Golf Fundamentals, Short Game.

      Taking the club back correctly during the first part of your pitch shots sets you up for success on the downswing and follow through. Here’s what I look for during the first part of my backswing: I set up with the grooves of the club-head square to the target and I make sure that […]

  • Long Putts: How much wrist action is right for you?

    Posted on February 5, 2014 by Grant in Golf Fundamentals, Putting.

      When it comes to long putts (60 to 100 feet), I have found that using a little wrist action helps me hit the ball in the center of the club-face every time. In the picture above I am using some wrist action on my back-swing for an uphill 90 footer. And, in the picture […]

  • Check the Alignment of your Feet

    Posted on February 3, 2014 by Grant in Drills, Golf Fundamentals, Golf Set-up, Practice.

      Proper alignment is a critical part of the golf set-up. A perfect swing will be wasted if you aim in the wrong direction. Here’s how to quickly check the alignment of your feet: After you address the ball, grab the club at both ends and hold the shaft level with the ground. From this […]

  • Chipping Drill for Solid Contact

    Posted on January 31, 2014 by Grant in Drills, Golf Fundamentals, Practice, Short Game.

      To perform this chipping drill, you just need a shag tube, a business card and a club to chip with. To set up the drill, I place a ball about 20 yards from the pin making sure that I have just 4 or 5 feet between me and the edge of the green. This […]

  • Full Swing Finish

    Posted on January 27, 2014 by Grant in Golf Fundamentals, Swing.

    The finish and the set-up are the most important parts of my golf swing. If I set up correctly every time and finish correctly every time, I stand a pretty good chance of making a good swing every time. When I come to a correct full swing finish, I: 1. Let my right foot rotate […]

  • Putting with Correct Speed

    Posted on January 24, 2014 by Grant in Golf Fundamentals, Putting.

      When I am preparing to putt, I choose my speed first, and pick the line second. In the picture below, you can see what an impact different speeds have on each of the three putts. All three putts started on the same line. However, the softest putt (red line) broke too soon, and the […]

  • Steps to the Full Swing Set-up

    Posted on January 22, 2014 by Grant in Golf Fundamentals, Golf Set-up, Swing.

      Here are my steps to the full swing set-up: 1. Standing tall, I take my left hand grip and hold the shaft out in front of me with the toe of the club pointed up at the sky. 2. I put my right hand on the grip of the club. 3. While keeping my […]
