Equipment Tips

are swung back and thru while being anchored to the player’s sternum or even sometimes their chin while
belly putters are anchored just above or near the belly button. . . more
Driver tech
The technology in today's new drivers has made one of the
toughest shots in golf much easier. If you struggle with hitting tee shots
you should start by hitting some 460 cc volume driver heads. They are the
biggest allowable by the rules and also the most forgiving when hit on other
than the center of the clubface. . . more

big key to distance control in putting is the swingweight of the
clubhead. This is an important criteria because the swingweight of the club
will have some influence on the distance the ball will travel. . . more
