  What distractions have you been allowing into your golf game? Do you know how to eliminate them? I’m sure you could think back to your last round of golf and identify a few distractions that might have affected your golf game.

  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 […]

  Ball Flights

  Posted on January 2, 2014 by Grant in Golf Fundamentals, Golf Set-up, Swing.

    I pay close attention to my ball flights on all shots. Based on what I see the ball doing in the air, I can diagnose swing flaws before they become habits. The flight of the golf ball always tells me what my club-face and swing-path were doing at impact. “Slices” and “fades” curve to […]

  My Journey: My first win

  Posted on November 27, 2013 by Grant in My Journey.

  The first time I played in the final group of a tournament was in September of 2009. It was a two-day Pepsi Tour event at Ocotillo Golf Club in Chandler, AZ. Going into the final day, I was one shot behind after shooting a 71 the first day. This was my first real opportunity to […]
