Why Stop at Hole 18 When You Can Play 27 Holes

Why Stop at Hole 18 When You Can Play 27 Holes

Golf course editorial review presented by John Schneider in www.FirstLightSports.com

Located in Sussex, Wisconsin, Ironwood Golf Course is a venue that contains 27 holes of beauty, enjoyment, challenge, and frustration. The course has three different sets of 9 hole courses that are assembled in several clever combinations to help make each golfing adventure unique. Ironwood was first established in 1995 with the completion of the “Callow” course. Over the next several years the “Meath” and “Birr” courses were added. Each of the 9 hole courses start and end at Ironwood’s large and comfortable clubhouse. While Ironwood has 27 separate holes, it is not a course where you feel like you are playing repetitive or cookie-cutter holes; no two holes are alike.

Ironwood will challenge the experienced golfer, while making sure the day still is full of fun moments for golfers of all levels. Callow to Meath has a rating of 71.5 and a slope of 126, Meath to Birr is 71/124, and Birr to Callow is 70.9/125.

The Callow (Riverside Meadow) course has several holes that allow opportunities to score, but then it wraps up with a three hole bang of demanding doglegs and elevation changes. Hole 7 is the toughest hole of the entire 27. This 500 yard hole is tree lined the entire way on both sides. If that is not enough to scare the dimples off your Titleists, the fairway that takes you uphill is only a skinny 20 yards wide. Getting past this hole with a bogie is definitely a good day for me. Double digit scores on hole 7 are an unfortunate, but not uncommon, reality. When you reach the green on top of hole 7 you are rewarded with a panoramic view of most of the Meath course. Hole 8 takes you right back down the hill and carries forward the tree lined fairway theme. This hole, however, has a sharp dogleg left. A good tee shot will come to rest in the landing area, roughly 200 yards downhill (don’t hit it too far and find the trees). From there you will have a good look at the green and you should be home free with a good chance for par or better. After several holes of seemingly forested play hole 9 takes you out of the trees. Before leaving you need to hit your drive up the tree lined fairway. If you crush your drive with a slight fade the dogleg right fairway will give you a nice view of the green.

The Meath (Middle Place) course flows in, out, and around a wide valley. Many of the holes on this course have great risk / reward opportunities and some repetitive experience will help you to determine your best targets. Number 3 would be my choice as the signature hole; an elevated tee placement will give you an opportunity to go for the green for this very drivable down hill par 4 (roughly 275 yards). The green, surrounded by water, sand traps, and waste area, is a tough golf shot. The safe play is a 200 yards shot down to fairway for a chance at an up-and-down birdie. However taking the 3 wood out for a chance at the eagle (or double-eagle dreams) is very tempting. Par 5 hole 6 takes you 550 yards back down into the valley, while the next hole, par 3 #7, takes you right back up to a multi-tiered green surrounded by several deep sand traps. Hole 8 is a dogleg left par 5. If you can hit a high and long drive you might consider going over the forest; a great drive will place you only 150 yards from the green (for a true eagle opportunity). But, if you miss your mark you will be hitting 3 from the tee box.

The Birr (Water Place) course was the most recent, and last, addition to Ironwood. Water comes into play on all but two holes here. To add to the fun and frustration the fairways tend to slope to the water often causing what initially was thought to be a great drive into a penalty. With that said, there are many scoring opportunities on this course as well. If you have managed to lose that nasty slice and have not replaced it with a pushy hook, your straight drive is going to help you record a lot of pars here. Bogies and beyond might be in your future if your drive is slicing. On an earlier occasion, in the same day, I carded a score of 50, but after seeing the light finished in the round in the high 30s. Hole 2 is a short par 4 where big hitters might be able to reach the green. The next hole, par 5 #3, is a long straight hole with water running down the right side the entire way. Bombing the drive might give you the opportunity to reach the green in 2, but water is on the left, right, and rear of the green. Hole 7 is a 460 yard par 4 where reaching this green in 2 is a very nice accomplishment. Finally hole 9 is a dogleg left that is begging you to hit over the old barn/silo.

The three separate courses, driving range, and large clubhouse make Ironwood ideally suited to host group outings and leagues, while at the same time allowing space for the general public to play. Ironwood offers a full-service clubhouse with a variety of room venues for gatherings and banquets. The largest banquet room seats 220. The open-air party barn can hold 150 people. Both venues provide great views of the courses, Holy Hill, and the surrounding countryside. On any given day you can plan on seeing some sort of group outing in progress. If you are located in the Milwaukee suburbs and are planning a corporate or charity golf outing I strongly recommend you give Mike Lehmann, Ironwood’s Director of Golf, a call (262-538-9900; http://ironwoodgolfcourse.com/ ) to give him the opportunity to win your business.

Golf prices at Ironwood generally fall inline with the other privately owned / publicly played courses in the Lake Country area. Tee times are usually available due to the existence of the 27 holes. I recommend that you make some time during the golf season to give this wonderful course a try.

Long Distance Spin Casting

Long Distance Spin Casting

You read up on it. You become sure you can do it. After all, hitting a good tee shot seems a lot harder than casting a spinning rod.

So you march to the lake with visions of hooking and landing a faraway lunker. You set up your fishing rod and step up to the bank and cast. Your lure, however, flies off to the right and not very far. You cast again and again. The results don’t change.

Golf didn’t seem this frustrating! So you think all you need is some practice.

But after hours and hours of it, you’re still in the same, going-nowhere casting boat, so to speak.

How discouraging! Even makes you think about giving up fishing.

Yes, I know!

But instead of giving up, I wondered, what if there’s a lot more to casting a spinning rod than what I read? What if I experiment with using other techniques, the techniques of throwing a ball and of casting a fly rod?

So I began a year of casting trials and errors. Lots of errors!

Then finally it happened: consistently, I felt the beauty of loading the rod, of watching the lure streak over the water, and land right where I wanted it to.

Here’s how I got there.

THE STANCE. I want to use one that helps me shift my weight so I get as much leverage as possible, and helps me increase the length of my casting stroke, and therefore the bend, or load, in the rod. I’m right handed, so I put my left foot forward and point it straight ahead. I turn my right foot outward about thirty degrees. My feet are shoulder-width apart. The front of my right foot is in-line with the front of my left heel. (If my right foot is too far back or too far pointed outward, I’ll lock my hips and not be able to fully rotate by body and shift all my weight.) I square my hips and shoulders to the target, slightly bend my knees and shift my weight to the ball of my front foot. My right heel is off the ground. I flex my thumb and put it on the top of the rod handle. I hold the rod loosely and point it anywhere from nine o’clock to ten-thirty. My elbow is even with the front of my waist. The lure hangs down about a foot.

THE POWER GRIP. I start with two fingers in front of the reel stem and two behind. I pick up the line with my right index finger, and then move my hand back so only my line finger is in front of the stem. Next, I pull the line up and back, then press my fingertip against the stem, but not against the line. (I like to feel the weight of the lure to cast it accurately.)

I hold the line this way for the same reason a good fly caster doesn’t let slack form in his fly line: to keep constant tension on the line so as soon as I start the cast the lure pulls on the rod, and therefore fully loads the rod. Holding the line the conventional way made it impossible for me to keep enough tension on the line. Even worse, I found it very difficult to keep my index finger from prematurely straightening and releasing the line.

No wonder my casts were short, and high and off to the side.

(Until I got my timing down, I used a golf glove or a Band-Aid to prevent the line from cutting into my finger.)

MOVING THE ROD. I initially assumed the faster I moved the rod the farther I’d cast. For two reasons I was wrong. First: a pitcher achieves maximum power and velocity only when his arm moves in sync with his body rotation. If his arm gets ahead of his body he becomes an “arm thrower.”

No wonder major league pitchers seem to throw as if not using all their might! Maximum arm speed is reached only at the release.

Fly casters will tell you the same thing, and also for the second reason: to fully load the rod it must accelerate. If it moves too quickly the speed of the line, or in our case the lure, moves almost as fast as the rod, and therefore doesn’t fully pull on and load the rod. The cast dies well short of its target.

(A stiffer rod loads better with a shorter, faster stroke, but the stroke must still be accelerated.)

THE CAST AND POWER SNAP. I begin the cast by opening the bail, raising my elbow and slowly accelerating the rod up and back. As I move the rod, I rotate my shoulders backwards and shift my weight to the heel of my back foot. When the rod points to about one o’clock I break my wrist back. My elbow continues to point forward. (If it points out to the side, I’ll not be able finish the cast without lowering the rod tip from the target line, and prematurely unloading the rod.) When my forearm points to about one o’clock, and my upper arm points parallel to the water or slightly upward, and the rod points parallel to the water or slightly downward, I immediately and quickly start my forward cast.

(During the back cast I never move the rod too fast. If I do, the lure will bounce at the end of the cast and prematurely unload the rod.)

My eyes are focused on an imaginary target in the sky, about forty-five degrees above the water, but higher if the wind is from behind or lower if it is from in front.

Leading with my elbow, rotating my shoulders and shoulders I accelerate the rod and soon move the tip in a straight line that points to the target and move the rod butt at a right angle to the line. (Fully rotating our hips and shoulders allows us to increase the length we can move—and therefore load—the rod at this angle.)

When my arm is about three-quarters extended, I increase my grip pressure and my acceleration and shift all my weight to my front foot. I reach maximum arm speed then, as if I’m hammering a nail, I snap my wrist without lowering the rod tip from the target line. Abruptly, I stop the rod.

My front leg is now straight. My right shoulder is all the way forward. My arm is fully extended. My weight is on the ball and toes of my front foot. I hold the rod still so I don’t lower the tip and pull the line down.

AS I DESCRIBE ALL THIS. Learning to cast a spinning rod seems a lot easier than it was. Well maybe if, like most skilled golfers, I had learned the right techniques from the start it would’ve been.

But better late than never.

I’m a native New Yorker. My writing has appeared in many publications, including The Flyfisher, Flyfishing & Tying Journal and Fishing And Hunting News. I’m also the author of the historical novel, The Fly Caster Who Tried To Make Peace With the World.

Much of my writing is about the techniques of spin and fly casting and about the spirituality/recovery of fly fishing. I often fish the streams of Westchester, the piers of New York City and the lakes of Central Park.

Not Against Wind Golf

Not Against Wind Golf

A lot of golf amateurs are worry about playing golf in the wind; however, greater golf players know the way to make use of wind to play better. For example, greater golf players understand that it doesn’t matter what kind of golf shot you’d normally play with your taylormade r9 driver, no matter it’s a draw, fade or whatever, the way the wind blows alters all the things. You need to generate adjustments to get the wind work to suit your needs, rather than aiming to hit a golf shot to struggle against it. I have observed that occur time and time again with golf amateurs.

Place it this way, it doesn’t matter how large a fade or draw you are capable of striking; it is most likely the wind will usually win. What exactly do you do? Enjoy it with your clubs! In the picture above, I have got a inflexible wind blowing from right to left. Rather than battling it, I have elected to strike a drawing tee shot with desires that the wind functions alongside me to transfer the golf ball from right to left. Additionally, since I am playing with the wind and not against it, it is most likely my draw could be more pronounced; therefore I have to make certain I target farther right to permit for it. And in addition, if, by chance, my normal golf ball flight would be a fade, rather than hitting a draw, I would play for a straight golf shot and target a little less right of the goal. No matter what, I am enabling the wind move the golf ball back towards the fairway.

Not certain? Great, had I played a fade, I’d have work a greater risk of pulling the tee shot with the golf ball not fading enough or at all. And also with that right-to-left wind, things would simply get even worse. I’d be hitting my 2nd golf shot from the bear grass! If the wind were blowing another way, a much better golfer is aware of never fight a slice wind with the titleist ap2 irons from golfstore365.com. The golf playing is to focus on left and allow the golf ball drift to the right back to the fairway.

At last, when actively playing with your clubs in the wind, you never thought you can use your money to make money, whichever way it’s blowing, do not believe you have to swing any harder than normal. Simply accept the truth that wind is blowing, and even though it might be in an unwanted direction, the main element is to prevent going to war with it. It could foul up your rhythm and tempo, never to say your scorecard.

Simply accept the truth that wind is blowing, and even though it might be in an unwanted direction, the main element is to prevent going to war with it.

Tricks to Become a Better Player-3-5

TRICK 3: Don’t Change Your Stance

Instinctively, you might assume that the stance changes, depending on the golf clubs. Not true! When it comes to full shots (not pitches, chips or putts), maintaining a consistent stance is critical to becoming a better ball striker.

That’s not to say there are minor adjustments in spine angle, ball position and stance width, but generally, how you stand over an iron should not be far off from how you situate yourself with a driver. Notice the similarities in the photos above? This is what you want.

TRICK 4: Make A Good Grip

Better players always, and I mean always, have a fundamentally solid grip. To start, grip the golf club with your gloved hand and emphasize the handle’s placement in the fingers between the first knuckle and the palm. Then, apply the ungloved hand so it wraps comfortably around the handle. From there, the thumb and index fingers of both hands form two Vs, both of which should be pointed somewhere around the right side of your chest or right shoulder. Follow this advice and you’ll have a solid grip.

TRICK 5: Play With The Wind, Not Against It

Many amateurs fret about playing in the wind, but better players know how to use wind to their advantage. For instance, better players know that no matter what type of shot you’d normally play, whether it’s a draw, fade or whatever, how the wind blows changes everything. You have to make adjustments to make the wind work for you, instead of trying to hit a shot to fight against it. I’ve seen that happen time and time again with amateurs.

Put it this way, no matter how big a fade or draw you’re capable of hitting, it’s likely the wind will always win. So what do you do? Play with it! I’ve got a stiff wind blowing from right to left. Instead of battling it, I’ve opted to hit a drawing tee shot with hopes that the wind works alongside me to move the ball from right to left. Also, since I’m playing with the wind and not against it, it’s likely my draw will be more pronounced, so I need to make sure I aim farther right to allow for it. And by the way, if, by chance, my natural ball flight was a fade, instead of hitting a draw, I’d play for a straight shot and aim a little less right of the target. Either way, I’m letting the wind move the ball back into the fairway.

Still not convinced? Well, had I played a fade, I’d have run a greater risk of pulling the tee shot with the ball not fading enough or at all. And with that right-to-left wind, things would only get worse. I’d be hitting my second shot from the bear grass! If the wind were blowing the other way, a better player knows to never fight a slice wind. The play is to aim left and let the ball drift to the right back into the fairway.

Lastly, when playing in the wind, no matter which way it’s blowing, don’t think you need to swing any harder than normal. Just accept the fact that wind is blowing, and although it may be in an undesirable direction, the key is to avoid going to war with it. This will foul up your rhythm and tempo, not to mention your scorecard.

Learn to Hit a Low, Penetrating Stinger Shot Like Tiger Does

Learn to Hit a Low, Penetrating Stinger Shot Like Tiger Does

The best time to play the Stinger shot is when you are faced with a very narrow tee shot and there is a lot of trouble bordering the fairway. The last thing you want is for your ball to miss the fairway and land up in one of the multiple hazards.

So what should you do? The first thing is too not hit your driver as it is definitely not worth the risk. This type of shot requires a three wood or even a two iron for you to execute it successfully. Once you have selected the appropriate club follow these steps.

Step 1: Tee the ball very low to the ground.

Step 2: Ensure that you grip the club firmly with your left hand. This is extremely important as your left hand is the most responsible for controlling the movement of the clubhead.

Step 3: Bring your right hand on to the grip, but make sure you grip the club lightly with this hand as it will allow you to increase your hand-arm speed and will also add significant power to your shot. Which you will definitely need to compensate for the distance you will be losing for not using the driver.

Step 4: Position your hands ahead of the ball so that the clubface is still pointing at the target, but is slightly closed.

Step 5: Start your backswing, keeping it as flat as possible until you get to the parallel position. At this point your right hand should be hinged slightly.

Step 6: Start your downswing, but keep your right hand hinged and then unhinge your wrist at impact. You should also ensure that the back of your left hand is turned downward to keep the clubface closed at impact.

This should help you to significantly reduce the loft of the club and will help you hit a long, low flying shot that will split the fairway and consequently have a lot of roll. Make sure you practice this shot on the driving range first as it is a bit unorthodox and will take some getting used to. I hope this helps.

Learn to Drive a Golf Ball Far

Learn to Drive a Golf Ball Far

If you want to know how to drive a golf ball far, you don’t have to look beyond your own mirror. Don’t blame your clubs. Don’t blame your pro. Don’t blame your golf ball. Or, the harassing your golfing buddies give you on the tee. There’s only one thing keeping you from hitting the ball far. Can you guess what it is? If I’ve eliminated the above there is only one thing left.

The tee shot is the ego shot in golf. Learning how to drive a golf ball far is way up on the list for most beginning golfers. The only problem is most amateur and beginner golfers drive it way shorter than they want to, because their golf swing technique is not proper to encourage longer golf drives. I know you don’t want to hear that, but it’s the only thing left. I think you would agree your body swings the golf club right? If you don’t agree, you might want to pick up ping pong. One very effective way to quickly improve driving distance is to have a proper golf grip. The preference is a strong one so you can rotate the clubface over through impact encouraging a draw and more yards when it hits the ground.

It’s time to wake up and “get real” as Dr. Phil says. A body that is more limber and stronger. And nourished is a body that will hit the golf ball far, given you know how to swing a golf club, which most of you do. A body that is broken will have much inefficiency, causing a lack of distance, dozens of mishits per round, and a much higher score at the end of each round. This is where beginner golfers screw up. Instead of a spine angle away from the target at impact, many have either a vertical one, or even worse, one that is more towards the target, encouraging a descending blow resulting in pop ups. Golf is a sport that to play you need to buy a lot of golf equipment. So it’s very important that you must own some resources of golf discount superstore, because they can save your money on the equipment fees. If you are not careful, golf clubs are the single biggest expense that you face. I strongly recommend Callaway Big Bertha Golf Ball in golf store shop. So discount golf clubs can go a long way toward making this expensive game more affordable.

How to Hit Your Golf Tee Shots Long and Straight

How to Hit Your Golf Tee Shots Long and Straight

Article by Golfdiscountsale2

The golf tee shot is your first shot on each hole out on the golf course. Typically, on par 4s and par 5s, you’ll hit your driver for your tee shot. Many golfers want to be able to hit the ball farther off the tee. Added distance with your driver will allow you to hit shorter irons into greens and generally help you score better.One helpful tip for driving the golf ball farther off the tee is to setup up with your spine angle tilted slightly to the right. With the driver, you want to hit the ball sligtly on the upswing. Setting up with your spine tilted back will help you launch the golf ball high and give you more distance off the tee.Setting up with your weight a touch more on your back foot can also be helpful with your driver. Play the ball all the way off of your left or front heel for best results. If you play the ball too far back in your stance with your driver, you’ll end up de-lofting the club even more and may have trouble getting it up into the air.The pros on tour average 61% driving accuracy with hitting the fairways. The key with your tee shots is to hit it relatively close to the fairway so you are still in play and can manage a decent approach shot to the green.Some people struggle with their driver off the tee and are even afraid to hit it. The reason the driver tends to be a harder club to hit is because it is longer and there is the least amount of loft with this clubhead. The more loft the golf club has, the higher it will go but it the golf ball won’t go as far.You need a proper stance and ball position to learn how to drive a golf ball straight. According to Tiger Woods, there are two reasons golfers do not know how hit the driver straight off of the tee box. He says golfers either place the ball too far back in their stance and/or too far away from their body. Bottom line, you need to have a proper golf stance to learn how to hit a tee shot straight and drive the ball like Tiger.Let’s discuss how to get the ball the proper distance away from your body. This is essential to learning how to hit a golf ball straight off the tee box.1. Your grip should hang beneath and slightly forward of your shoulders at address. 2. Any further forward and you are likely to have a pronounced inside to inside swing that will lead to strong draws or hooks. 3. Any closer to your body and you will tend to have a pronounced outside to outside swing that will lead to strong fades or slices. many golfers have trouble figuring out how to aim a golf shot. You should aim a drawn line on golf ball down the target line. This ball then help your body align from top to bottom starting with your golf foot position on up to your golf shoulder alignment. It also helps you with your golf club head position at address. Then, during the setup you can place the golf club so that the aiming mark on the driver, wood or hybrid lines up with the drawn line on the ball. (Mizuno JPX Fairway Wood) Then you can know that my club is aiming down the target line. This is essential to learning how to drive a golf ball straight. Really, it is an unfair advantage for any situation where you can place the golf ball before you hit it. However, master your driver and you’ll take tons of pressure off the rest of your golf game. It’s a whole lot easier playing from the fairways than it is playing from in the trees. (TaylorMade R9 Driver) When you’re hitting from the fairways, you’ll tend to hit more greens than you would from out of the rough or not in the fairway. Get some basic driver fundamentals worked into your golf swing and start playing better golf today.
