Short Game – How to Gain Control Around the Greens

Posted on by GLA

Short game improvement is the key to lower scores on long, saturated golf courses.

Dear GLA Family,

Need some short game tips to navigate swampy course conditions?

It’s rained and rained and the courses are playing longer.

Playing from further away makes it more difficult to hit the green. 

Watch this video and get better at getting up and down!

You’ll learn some easy plays to get the ball close to the hole:

  • Identify your landing spot.
  • Gauge your air time / roll time. 
  • Choose the right club.
  • Learn from what the ball does.

You’ll turn those 3s and 4s around the green into 2s.

And you’ll enjoy slopping through the mud as you shoot lower scores and win more cash from your friends!

Golf Expectations vs. Reality

Posted on by GLA

Dear GLA Family,

Sometimes you hit great shots all day and post a high score.

Other times you score lower when you don’t strike it well.

How can this be?

Watch this video and clear your mind.

Controlling what you can control will help you:

  • Align your expectations with reality.
  • Reduce stress and tension.
  • Eliminate doubt and uncertainty. 

Your time on the golf course will be more enjoyable and your scores will begin to trend lower.

Sincerely,

Managing Tension on the Golf Course

Posted on by GLA

Dear GLA Family,

Are your golf shots short and shrimpy?

We’ve got a great play for you.

Here’s a spoiler: it’s probably not your golf swing!

Watch this video and gain control over your tension levels.

Managing tension will help you:

  • Grip the club to use it most effectively.
  • Swing the club to One Motion and not many pieces. 
  • Eliminate hitting and guiding.
  • Improve directional control and center face contact. 

Your time on the golf course will be more enjoyable and your scores will begin to trend lower.

Sincerely,

Ben and Chad

Trajectory Control

Posted on by GLA

Trajectory control – hitting the golf ball high and low on demand – is crucial to lower golf scores. Controlling the flight of your golf ball is essential when playing golf in the wind and escaping from trouble on the golf course like the deep trees or tall grass.

There’s nothing more damaging to your score than taking a bad shot and making it worse. Big numbers are always lurking if you complicate trouble situations. 

If triple- and quadruple-bogeys show up too often on your scorecard, you need to watch this video!

Kyle Bogey from the Metro Detroit Golfers recently came to GLA and addressed trouble shots. 

You’ll learn to simplify situations in the woods or tall grass and get the ball back in play.  You’ll align your expectations with reality and discover that easy bogeys really aren’t so bad. And you’ll stop compounding mistakes with costly decisions that send your scores to the moon!

Sincerely,

Ben and Chad
