Golf Lessons

With the good weather we have had recently it doesn’t seem like the season has ever finished but we all know the season starts with the first major of the year, the Masters.

Why not get your game into shape before then, I see so many people that would benefit from an annual check up (Just like we do with our cars) there could just be minor problems with your game but they eventually turn into major problems.

By taking some coaching now you could enjoy the golf of your dreams all summer long.

Hybrid Clubs?


Hybrids are now so popular that almost every golfer has one in their bag but are you getting the most out of them?

I see so many people trying to lift the ball in the air or trying to sweep this club with very little success. Hybrids are designed to perform like iron clubs they have a relatively shallow sole, additional loft and ...... More Here

So how will Tiger do this year?

Tiger is already the favourite with the bookies to win all 4 majors this year but is he really the great threat he once was?

Randall Mell, from the golf channel, gives his view after last week’s event from Abu Dhabi where Tiger openly admitted he played there because of the huge appearance money he received.

Tiger Woods may be getting some nice form back, but nobody’s going to give him tournaments anymore.

Robert Rock didn’t blink with Woods aside him Sunday at Abu Dhabi, even after Woods birdied two of his first three holes.

In days gone by, Woods' little starting burst might have been enough to shake and rattle his fellow competitors. Not anymore. There’s no longer this sense Woods won’t beat himself, that you have to do something extraordinary to beat him when he's got the lead on a Sunday. Woods will beat himself now, as most mortals will, but Woods so rarely did at the height of his powers.

Woods missed five consecutive greens on the front nine on Sunday, didn’t make a birdie on the back nine, hit just two fairways all day long. That’s beating yourself on a Sunday in contention.

None of this diminishes the fact that Woods is getting a lot more comfortable with his new swing, that his putting looks good again, that he’s definitely on an upward track again.

Woods will win again, soon, but nobody’s going to hand him that win. Courtesy of the golf channel.
