game and master it. Here are some tips that can
help you get a solid foundation for golf
improvement.
3. Tip #1 - Grip
Different from grabbing the club and gripping it like a
baseball bat, you want your thumb to run along the top
of the grip going down. (see the picture above)

4. Tip #2 - Posture
The right approach, how you stand in front of the ball, is the key to a
successful golf player. Always remember that you want to find a
approach you feel comfortable with. A standard approach is slightly
bent knees, upper body leaning over the ball, but not hunched, arms
out in front of you, but not overly extended, and your feet should stay
shoulder width apart. (see the image above)

5. Tip #3 - Swing
Three steps for a good golf swing are the take away, impact and follow through.
• During take away and impact, it is best to keep your feet planted, and keep your head and
upper body still.
• During the follow through, look at where the ball. As you bring the club back, try to keep
your lead arm as straight as possible, rotating your hips and transitioning your weight to
your back foot.
• As you come down for impact, your hips should begin forward rotation while your weight
should shift to your lead foot.
• Keep your eye on the ball and allow your hips to continue rotating.
At the end of your swing, your upper torso should be facing the hole. (see the image above)

6. Tip #4 - Lessons
It can be quite challenging for a beginner to pick up the game and play it in the
proper way, especially for the posture and swing. Therefore it is always a good
option to take a golf lesson or two before going out. Remember if you start own
your own and do it in a wrong way, you might get some bad habits that early golfs
have. Most golf courses have a pro shop with a golf pro that has the necessary
skills and qualifications to help you start on the right foot in the game of golf.
