Develope Your Own Set-up Routine
How to golf for beginners and having your own set-up routine is important. Whether your a beginner or intermediate player you have to have your own unique set-up routine that you use to prepare yourself for every shot.
Everyone has their own perspective and outlook about golf. It is how you approach the game that will determine how good a golfer you will become. You have to be prepared to experience failure when playing golf because it will happen. It is the greatest game there is and if your willing to put in some practice and develop your own routine while your playing you can become very good at this game.
I will explain how I approach my set-up and hopefully it will help you as well. For myself, golf is a very relaxing game. It doesn't matter if I shoot a great score or a lousy score, I just enjoy playing. I enjoy the beutiful scenery, the smell of the fresh cut grass, but the one thing that attracts me to golf the most is the fact that this is a game that can never be mastered. You always have room to improve.
I always go to the golf coarse early enough so I have time to warm up on the practice tee. I cannot stress enough the importance of getting loose and warmed up before you start play. This is when your mental preparations will begin. I
have been playing for so long that I have developed my own personal routine from addressing the ball through the completion of the swing. You should develop your own personal routine as well.
While on the practice tee I usually place an iron on the ground help align me with my target. This helps me when I set my feet to make sure they are placed properly. I will stand behind the ball and visualise in my head what I want the shot to do. When I am setting up for a shot I start out with my feet together and I check my distance from the ball. Once that is done, the next thing I do is position club face behind the ball making sure it is square to the ball and in line with the target.
I then set my left hand first making sure it is in the proper position. If my left hand is in good position than my right hand fits right into place. I then spread my feet apart starting with my left foot first. I always start with my left foot because my left foot determines where the ball is placed in my stance. This will also allow me to adjust the ball in my stance when I need too.
After my feet are in place, I slightly open up my left foot. This will allow me to clear my hips easier since my flexibility has tightened up over the years. it is not that easy for me to turn my body through the swing as it was when I was younger.
My set-up is done and I am ready to complete my swing. If everything is done correctly the ball will go where I want it to.
Golf is all about repetition and repeating the same swing over and over. If you develop your own set-up routine this will take you one step closer to being a more consistent golfer.
