Tips On How To Buy A Used Golf Cart
More and more golfers in recent years are choosing to buy their own golf cart instead of just renting them when they play. Many feel that owning their own cart is actually cheaper in the long run.And for some, there are clear advantages to owning their own golf cart.

And considering that golf carts can easily last 10 years or more, you should be able to recover the cost of your cart many times over in...

Sports Handicappers

Why I Quit Playing Golf
After listening to my friends go on and on about their experiences playing golf, I finally decided to take up golf again. Except for sporadic forays with rented clubs, I had not played golf since I caddied with my dad in the forties.

Golf Tips: How to Play Bunker Shots
Bunkers - How to Play Them Fairway Bunkers The fairway bunker shot can be an intimidating shot for many inexperienced golfers. For starters, when playing out of fairway bunkers, it is wise to take one to two clubs more than normal.

Right before you begin your backswing, lift your chin off your chest. That raises your center of gravity and increases your ability to hit the ball first, which is crucial in executing the shot. Swing at 70 percent of your normal speed and there's a good bet you'll hit a clean...

Junior Golf Clubs- What To Do?

The head was extremely heavy, and he couldn't really swing the club, he sort of picked it up and hacked down at the ball like the club was an axe! The kids both had fun, however, and they always lit up when I suggested going to the driving range to hit balls. These days parents have many more options, and they can find decent junior golf clubs...
