Working The Ball – Fade, Draw, High, Low

Working The Ball – Fade, Draw, High, Low

Although at times it seems like the golf ball when hit chooses its own flight path, this is not true the ball only responds to how it was hit. Was it hit by a square, closed or open club face, was it hit with 21 degrees or 34 degrees of loft, was the club head traveling at 80 miles per hour or 100 miles per hour. It is really all a matter of physics.

What if those different ball flights and the conditions that created them could be controlled? The good news is they can, and once you know how to create the exact ball flight you need for the shot at hand, you have many more weapons at your disposal to put the ball where you want it. The better news is it only requires small variations of the your regular full golf swing to create these shots.

These are the nine different ball flights you would want to know how to create;

Straight with normal trajectory, this is the shot you want to use if there is no trouble to avoid, you just need the ball in the middle of the fairway. Straight with higher than normal trajectory, this shot could be used if you had some obstacle, such as a tree you wanted to go over.
Straight with lower than normal trajectory, maybe you need to stay under some branches, or you want to keep it lower going into the wind.
slight movement to the right, highly skilled players who use this shot can control how much it moves to the right. Possibly the pin is on the right side of the green, you might want the ball to start at the middle of the green, but work to the right.
A fade with a high flight, might be used if that right pin placement is behind a front trap.
A fade with a low ball flight, how about trees with low branches in front of you and the fairway or green to your right.
Moving to the left this is called a draw, (again for a right handed shot) not to be confused with a hook, the draw is a controlled movement to the left and is said to produce the most roll.
A draw with a high flight, now the pin is to the left and tucked behind a sand trap.
A draw with a low flight, same scenario as the low fade, only you need to get to the left.

You see these shots attempted every week on the pro tours, not always as planned. Some of the players are not adept at creating all of these shots, those who are have more weapons to choose from.

Investing the time and practice necessary for learning to execute these shots as needed will make your game better and lower your scores. You will have much more confidence in your golfing ability, and be part of an elite group, not many recreational golfers are skilled at working the ball effectively.

The Top 3 Ways For Federer to Beat Nadal

The Top 3 Ways For Federer to Beat Nadal

It’s not enough for Federer that Rafa Nadal is a great tennis player.

It’s also a challenge because Nadal plays left handed.

The problem is that most people Federer (and you) play are right handed, so he and you become used to certain patterns of play and positions on the tennis court.

When the lefty comes along, everything you know about the game seems to go out the window and if you are not careful your strong shots are dealt with easier and your weaknesses are more exposed.

Here are the top 3 adjustments you need to make to your tennis game when coming up against a left handed opponent.

Adjust Your Position On The Return Of Serve Position

Because the natural path of the ball from a lefty’s tennis serve like Nadal is to your left, you need to adjust your returning position.

By moving over to the left to return serve (on both sides) you will be in a better position to return their best serves as well as forcing them to try to hit what for them is the slightly harder serve.

In the deuce court the harder serve for them will be the kick serve out wide and the sliced serve down the centre from the ad side.

The most overlooked aspect in all of this is the fact that you will be showing them that you are aware of what’s happening on the court and you will force them to do some thinking of their own and not just serve their favourite serves and play on autopilot.

Believe me, with most players that will lead to an increase in double faults and free points for you!

Work On Your Backhand Up The Line

Because Federer and us rightys tend to want to play our backhands cross court, this can cause a problem when we play leftys as we tend to hit into their strength – the forehand.

Also, leftys are happy to get the ball on the forehand and hit it crosscourt into our backhands.

By working on the backhand up the line you can switch play so that they hit their backhand cross court into your strength (your forehand).

You may even get the chance if they try to go back up the line on your backhand to run around the ball and hit an inside out forehand.

One word of caution here, you will find many left handers (esp. Nadal) are quite good at creating wide angles from their forehands to your backhand.

If that happens, don’t try and go down the line as you will be way out of position for the next ball – you must try to go deep and cross court!!

Don’t forget When They Come To The Net

One other thing that you also need to do is to adjust what you do when a lefty comes to the net.

Because you often don’t have a lot of time when this happens it’s easy to play on auto pilot.

The problems arise when you try to put up a lob.

You should know that a lob over the backhand side of your opponent is the most effective.

Well, when you put up your normal lob for your right handed opponent this ends up going to the leftys forehand and gets crushed!!

Not only do they win the point but it pumps them up and gives them extra confidence – NOT GOOD!!

You can just see Nadal pumping his fist after dispatching an easy overhead.

Conclusion

These adjustments may not help Federer to beat Nadal as I’m sure he is aware of them, but they will most certainly help most of the club players out there when they come up against lefty opponents.

Start using them today!

Also try to search out some left handed people to practise with.

This will prove invaluable when you have to play one in a match.

The Golf Swing Slice

The Golf Swing Slice

Article by Garry Booton







The slice is often a very common problem among golf players and once you have an understanding of what creates the slice you are in a better position to remedy your golf swing slice.

The slice is caused by the face of the club looking to the right of the course the club is moving through at the time of impact with the ball. This leads to clockwise spin on your ball making it curve towards the right. Typically the club will also be travelling towards the left significantly increasing the angle on the glancing contact even more.

To begin with we need to distinguish between a slice and a hook shot. If you happen to be right handed and the ball is going to the right when you hit it that’s known as a slice. If the ball is moving too far to the left then this is a hook. One of the causes of your slice is that you may have been trying to hit the ball far too hard and you had no feel for what the club face was really doing.

So what can you do to cure the slice shot?

You will need to have a feel for squaring the club and there is an easy exercise you can apply to achieve this. You need to use a 5 or 6 iron and hit the ball softly so that it travels no more than 30 yards. You need to make sure that you square the face on the shot so the ball goes straight. When you can achieve this you need to use the same club and hit the ball so it is travelling about 100 yards. Remember to be sure that the club face squares up with every shot and that the ball is moving straight.

Keep carrying out the same exercise in time moving up to your driver. Do exactly the same procedure as before by hitting the ball no more than 50 yards in a straight line. It will pay off if every now and then you move through your downward swing in slow motion and slow it right down so that you stop right behind your ball, feeling and seeing the position of the club face at that stage.

By taking some time to generate a feel of squaring your club your body will adapt for the swing you are working on, and soon it’s going to become second nature for you to present the club face correctely to the ball consequently preventing a golf swing slice.

Helpful Tips for Finding Your First Apartment

Helpful Tips for Finding Your First Apartment

Article by Heather Kraus







Getting your first apartment is a wonderful experience but it can also be a bit frightening and overwhelming. There are so many options to choose from, so many factors that come into the equation. You want to chose the right apartment so you can fully enjoy being on your own but you don’t know where to start. To help make the process of finding your first apartment smoother I have compiled a list of what you should look at when getting your first apartment.

The Room Itself: How large do you want the apartment to be? Are you planning on sharing it with someone in the future or is just going to be you? Are you bringing a pet with you? Do you want one bedroom or two? And how many bathrooms do you want? All of these questions need to be carefully considered when searching for your first apartment. It all depends on what you need in the present and what you feel you will need in the future. It also depends on how much stuff you are going to be moving into the apartment, you want to make sure you have enough room for everything that’s important to you. It can be hard to determine exact size by simply hearing the measurements or looking at a picture of the apartment online. Your best bet would probably be to look a few apartments first and get an idea of what size you want.

Amenities: Every apartment and apartment complex is different so before you start looking you should make a list of what your new apartment “must” have and what you would like it to have. For example do you want it to have a washer and dryer in the apartment itself or do you care if the complex uses a shared laundry room? Do you want a full kitchen or is half a kitchen alright? Other amenities include internet, if the apartment has a patio, new kitchen appliances vs. old ones, cable hook up, air conditioning and possibly a shared fitness center. You have to pick which of these you can’t live without and which ones aren’t that important. Once you have the list made it will narrow down apartment options significantly.

Pets Allowed: Are you going to bring a pet with you? And if so you need to find a apartment that allows pets and that would make living with your pet a comfortable experience. For example if you are going to have a pet with you there is a good chance that you’re going to need a patio. It doesn’t have to be huge just enough so that your dog or cat can get some fresh air and not get stir crazy being in the house all day. Also having a pet requires more money so you have to make sure that is feasible for you. Some places want a extra deposit up front and that’s it while others require a monthly fee.

Location: This is huge and covers a lot of territory. Location is about wanting to be where you are and safety but it’s also about what you need close to you. If you have a dog you may want a dog park or just a part nearby so you can easily take your dog there. You may want to be in walking distance to the places you use most often like grocery stores, cafes, hospitals, restaurants, even a movie theater. If you don’t care about walking distance you probably want to be at least centrally located so you can get to all these places in a 15 minute drive or less. Again it’s about deciding what’s important to you, what you can and what you can’t live without, and what you want your first apartment experience to be like.

Price: This is a pretty obvious one. You need to get something that you can afford each month without breaking the bank. You want a nice place in a good part of town without going broke. Those can be hard to find but not impossible.

Management: I recommend meeting the management before you decide on a place. I have seen complexes that were beautiful but the management were very cold and uncaring. You may think it doesn’t matter as long as your place is nice but you’re wrong. If something breaks in your apartment and needs to be fixed you want to have confidence that maintenance is going to take care of it and not let it sit for months before getting to it. Plus you want to feel safe and comfortable in your house but if you have management who is harsh you may not feel that way. Essentially since you are going to be living there for awhile you want the management to be a friend, someone you can count on not the opposite.

Once you have thought about what you want out of all these options it’s time to find a real estate agent. You tell them what you want in the apartment, what location you would prefer ect. and they will help you narrow down the choices so you can find the right one. I hope this article has helped you know about what to look for when getting your first apartment. If you follow these guidelines and realize what you truly want from this experience you should be finding your perfect apartment in no time.

Repair the Golf Slice – the Major Key You Must Follow To Cure a Slice

Repair the Golf Slice – the Major Key You Must Follow To Cure a Slice

Article by Sean O’Kelly







The golf slice is among the most irritating challenges to correct for some golfers, but if the factors behind why a golf ball slices are plainly comprehended, solution is not very difficult. But before we give you the answer to remedy that slice, please take a few deep breaths and SLOW DOWN your swing. All will fall into place if you think three-quarter speed.

The foremost key now that we will deal with to correct the golf slice is correct swing path. Since your golf swing is circular, that is, the club head begins behind our head, swings around our body and ultimately ends up behind our head, it might appear physically impossible to not impart spin on a ball. But at the point of contact tend not to think circular. Ok, I’ll explain.

When looking down at the golf ball, picture the ball moving in flight. For the right handed golfer, if the ball is rotating in a clockwise course the ball will slice, or move in the direction toward which the ball is spinning. Naturally, for the left handed golfer the opposite holds. The aim to correct the golf slice would be to eliminate this spin.

How can we accomplish this? If, by looking straight down on the ball, we were to imagine it as being a clock with twelve o’clock being the direction we’d like the golf ball to go, if we were to make initial contact on the ball at seven o’clock and hit through the ball to the one o’clock location, we’d impart minimal spin on the golf ball, and thus giving the ball a straight flight, or possibly a counter clockwise, or hook spin.

Of course this would not be hard if not for the fact we are swinging, to some extent, around the body in somewhat of a circular action. So prior to impact and just right after, we should think about the club taking a virtually inside out path. This isn’t as challenging as it seems. To correct the golf slice, practice accomplishing a couple of things:

1. Close the stance somewhat. Basically, ensure that the front foot is a bit closer to the golf ball than the back foot.

2. Position the ball further back in your stance. Many of us have the propensity to move the ball forward, frequently even past our front foot, which makes it extremely hard to reach that “one o’clock” position on the golf ball. Regularly sticking to those two swing keys will do wonders for the fix the golf slice. Of course some practice to fine-tune those techniques for your swing will be necessary.

Putting Drills – Lowers Your Golf Score

Developing putting drills that work is one of the fastest ways to lower your score. Many golfers lose a significant number of strokes once they get onto the green. By utilizing putting drills, you can learn to get the ball into the hole in fewer strokes.

Any seasoned golfer will tell you that the short game can be stroke-hungry, and that what happens on the green can wreak havoc on an otherwise good score. 3-putts, 4-putts, and even 5-putts are more common than you might think—but there is good news. Putting drills can dramatically help golfers hone their skills on the green, resulting in fewer total strokes.

When it comes to putting drills, spend time concentrating on the three essentials:

  • Keeping the face square
  • Maintaining a smooth swing
  • Achieving distance control

Keeping the Face Square – putting drill:

If you are in the habit of hitting the ball with your blade open or closed, try this:

Place a ball on the practice green and put a tee in the ground about twelve inches behind the ball. Put a silver coin on the ground about six inches in front of the ball. Bring your putter back until it taps the tee and then swing it forward, watching to ensure that the face stays square as it passes over the coin.

Maintaining a Smooth Swing

Putting drills should have a specific purpose and specific goal. With this next tip, you can learn to swing the club smoothly, which is key to maintaining your tempo and striking the ball solidly.

Again, place a ball on the practice green and stick a tee into the ground about 12 inches behind the ball. Bring the club back until it just barely nicks the tee and then immediately go into your fore-swing.

Keep your arms moving in a pendulum fashion and keep your hands still.

Achieving distance control – putting drill:

One of the most crucial putting drills is learning distance control. The only way to master distance control is through your own touch or feel. Nothing else can replace hands-on practice time when it comes to honing your skills on the green.

There are dozens of practice exercises for distance control, but one of the best is to simply stake out five tees, four feet apart, with the last tee being 20 feet away. Then, concentrate on getting the ball to each of the tees consistently.

If the ball rolls a few inches past the tee, that’s fine. What you don’t want to see is the ball stopping short of or rolling well beyond the target tee.

Notice that you are not aiming at a flag or a cup with this exercise, as this could distract you and cause you to focus more on accuracy than distance. While it’s true that distance and accuracy must work together, there are times when they should not be learned together.

These are only a few of the many putting drills that are available from golf pros and golfing websites. To master your skill on the green, you will need to invest time and energy. Learn to read the green and how to lag a putt, but most of all, learn to love putting drills. They really do work.
