Golf Tips from the Pros

以下是高尔夫和学习中心的首席高尔夫专业人士提供的建议:

Stretch for Success

Because your golf swing utilizes so many different muscle groups, 在比赛前花点时间做拉伸和热身是很重要的. 如果可以的话,早点到球场,打一小桶球热身. 先用楔子和短杆慢慢放松,然后再慢慢练习.

记住,你只是在感受你的挥杆动作和放松. 这不是开始改变挥杆或练习力学的时候. This is a warm up, not a practice session.

If you can’t get to the golf course in time to hit a small bucket, 考虑买一根加重的球杆放在包里,这样你就可以在等待开球的时候挥杆,伸展你的高尔夫肌肉. At the very least, 拿出你的8号和9号铁杆,用球杆一起挥杆,增加重量,促进肩膀和背部的伸展.

如果你经常做这些事情,你的身体会感觉到不同,并为此感谢你.

Target Line Awareness

As you head to the practice range, 打距离球有一个非常重要的方面,你应该记住:总是有并意识到你的目标线.

It happens to all of us, 我们去练习场是为了练习挥杆, 然后我们开始思考我们的转弯,支点或者10个中的一个,在前一个周末的电视高尔夫锦标赛上,一位高尔夫球分析师让我们相信,这是一个稳定的高尔夫挥杆的秘密. All the while, 我们忽略了比赛中最重要的一个元素,它将帮助我们把球导向我们想要的目标:目标线.

Remember, the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. That straight line ought to be your target line. 在你的球和你的目标之间的那条假想线就是你的目标线. 这是我们的杆面目标,它对我们的发车位置有巨大的影响.

当你在练习场击球时,把你的铁杆或雨伞放在与目标线平行的地面上. Always have a reference to your target. If you don’t , you really can’t fairly judge the shots you hit.

Setup Properly for a Free Swing

Many times when we start to hit the ball poorly, 我们脑海中闪现的第一件事是“我一定没有正确地挥拍球。.” Sounds logical enough, 但是很有可能秋千不能正常工作,因为你的设置不允许它正常工作.

这种设置占挥杆有效或无效的80%左右. 当你遇到麻烦时,永远记得回到你的起始位置.

Here are some things to consider when checking your setup position:

  • Grip pressure – keep it light, not tight.
  • Weight more on the balls of your feet than on the heels.
  • Keep knees flexed.
  • Back should be straight, 但要从臀部开始向前倾斜,使手臂可以自由地悬挂在肩膀上. 
    你的右手应该比左手低,因为你的右手在球杆上比左手低.
  • If you need references or some pictures of what a good setup looks like, almost every golf book written has a chapter on the setup. Don’t overlook this very important factor to making a good golf swing.
Develop Small Success Patterns First

Small success patterns lead to big success patterns. That’s how you should view your development as a golfer. It’s that way in just about every other aspect of life. First we learn to crawl, then to walk and then to run. In golf, everybody seems to want to start out running. Everyone wants to hit the ball further, and they think the longer they hit it the better they will play. Not always true.

Golf is a game of distance and direction. Direction should be learned and practiced first. By doing that, 你给了自己一个控制高尔夫球的机会——这不是很多人可以吹嘘的. 学会直击你的球(可能一开始放弃一些距离)应该会帮助你发展一个正确的挥杆形状. Once you are able to repeat that swing consistently, 你可以开始挥快一点来提高你的挥速,同时保持相同的挥型, and that should help to produce straight shots with more distance.

Test yourself. 看看你的球能在你瞄准的线上打多远. Start by hitting five three-foot putts. If you can get them to go perfectly in the direction you aimed, move back and hit five six-foot putts. If you have success there, try five nine-foot putts. If your putting is good, hit five chip shots from just off the green to a pin about 10 feet away, then 20 feet. If direction is still on line, 进入练习场,向一个特定的目标打5个半挥杆楔形球. Go to a ¾ swing with the pitching wedge, and if you’re still on line, 开始用你的9号铁杆打全杆,然后一直打到整组.

通常,球杆越长,保持球在线上就越困难. Find out where in your set you start to lose direction, and that’s where you need to target for practice. 这时,你可能需要一个你信任的人看着你的挥杆,帮助你找到如何进入正轨的方法. Remember to develop your direction first and your distance will follow.
