Pitching – the ball should come out high in trajectory and fly further than it runs on the ground. Clubs to use – sand wedge, pitching wedge, gap wedge or lob wedge.

We can pitch or chip anywhere on the course but it is mostly done around the green.

See you next week!

Practice keeping your arms extended to a finish position.  Hold the finish position until the ball finishes rolling.

The angle of your back needs to stay the same during your swing.

Have fun practicing!!

See you next week.

The LOFT is the angle of the club face.  The higher the number on the club indicates the loft is high as well.

The LIE ANGLE on the club is the angle between the shaft and the ground.

The three parts on a club are the GRIP, SHAFT and CLUBHEAD.  The grip is put on over the shaft with double sided sticky tape and solvent.  The shaft is glued into the hozel part of the club head with epoxy.

The way that you hold a golf club is referred to as YOUR GRIP.  Your left had grip should be taken by your side.  Let the club fall into your fingers then lift the club up with your wrist.  If you can see some of the clubs grip then your hand is not far enough to the right of the shaft.  Place your right had on the thumb of your left hand and then wrap your fingers around the shaft.    THE CLUB IS HELD IN AND CONTROLED BY YOUR FINGERS..

Taking your POSTURE is done at the hips.  Bend forward from the hips to one o’clock then flex your knees.  Practice in front of the mirror so you can see what you look like.  HEAD UP AND TAIL BONE UP..WITH A STRAIGHT SPINE YOUR SWING BECOMES DEVINE!!!!!

Keeping your posture while you swing helps the club get back to the ground consistently.  The shoulders swing at an angle to the ground.  Practice with the club across your shoulders in the mirror at home to remind yourself of what it should feel like and look like.  Keep practicing your grip and posture at the start of your swing as well!
