Jack’s Note:

===================================================
1) The One-Hop-and-Stop Shot
===================================================
If you’re like many weekend golfers, you have difficulty deciding what to hit from about 30 yards out and the pin cut close to the front. The lie may be ideal for a pitch shot. But if you hit your normal pitch shot, the ball will hit the green and run past the hole, costing you strokes. Try the one-hop-and-stop pitch shot instead. It hits the green, takes one hop forward, and bites.

Below are five tips on hitting this shot:

* Open the face of a sand wedge
* Play the ball off your big toe on your front foot
* Lean your weight forward
* Make an abbreviated backswing
* Accelerate through the ball

The key to this specialty shot is the set up. Use a sand wedge and open the face a little to generate extra loft. You’ll need it to carry distance with a faster swing. Also, play the ball off your big toe, lean your weight forward, and pull your hind foot back. To make sure your weight remains forward, roll the ankle of the hind foot slightly.

On the downswing pull the club down and into the ball. Try trapping it against the ground. It’s the key to generating the spin this shot needs. Also, make an abbreviated backswing. Your hands should go no higher than your hips. Accelerate through the ball and dig up some turf. Stop your hands on the follow-through when they reach hip high. When hit correctly, the ball lands, takes a hop forward, and then checks up.

Mastering this shot takes practice. But it’s time well spent, especially if you typically run your pitches past the hole. The one-hop and stop shot eliminates the indecisiveness you face when 30 yards out. More importantly, it saves you strokes.

===================================================
2) Chipping From A Trap
===================================================
Hitting an explosion shot 50 feet from the hole is one of the most difficult sand shots in the game. So if long bunker shots give you trouble, try something different than an explosion shot. Hit a chip shot. It’s easier to hit and easier to control once it lands on the green.

Below are six keys to chipping from a bunker.

* Use a short iron for the shot
* Choke down on the club
* Stay square to the line
* Place your sternum in front
* Make a triangle with your forearms
* Catch the ball before the sand

Use a 7-, 8-, or 9-iron, depending on the distance, to hit this shot. Choke down on the grip and set up with your feet close together and your body leaning forward. Keep everything square to the target line. Once set up, check to make sure your sternum is in front of the ball and your hands and forearms form a triangle. Press your hands forward.

Using your regular chipping swing, make a crisp pop of the ball. Swing harder than normal, since you need more speed to hit this shot than with your typical chip shot. The sand slows the clubhead down, plus you may need to roll the ball 20 to 30 feet. You’re normal swing speed won’t do. Also, make sure you catch the ball before the sand.

To practice this shot from a bunker, draw a line just in front of a ball and chip off it. Comb the surface just enough to take a bit of sand out of the bunker. Your divot should show the club entering the sand at the back of the ball and taking a divot in front of the line.

If you find it hard hitting a long bunker shot, try hitting a chip instead. It’s safer to hit, easier to control, and a good alternative to an explosion shot.

=====================================================
3) Question of the Week - Proper Alignment Saves Strokes
=====================================================
Q. Hi Jack, Thanks for the program and DVD’s. I truly believe the DVD’s and the program I purchased from you has significantly improved my game. My problem is when I align myself to the target on the golf course, I often find that I am off, so I back out of my setup and start all over. I use the “finding the intermediate target 1 to 2 feet in front of my ball” method. Aside from the “intermediate target alignment method is there any other alignment drills or tips, you have that could help the masses ensure they are aligning themselves properly?

Rich Tarbert
United States Marine Corp

A. Thanks for the question, Rich. Alignment is a key to accuracy—whether firing a rifle or playing golf. If you’re not aligned properly, there’s no way you can hit your target. But some weekend golfers neglect proper alignment. Check out the pros next time you watch golf on TV. See how carefully they align themselves to the intended target.

Since the intermediate target method of alignment works well for some players and not so well for others, teaching professionals have come up with additional alignment methods. Here’s a simple one. Try aligning your forearms to the intended target line. Keep them square to the line that the ball will travel. Don’t worry so much about where your feet are, but concentrate Instead on aligning your forearms.

For added precision, try combining the forearm method with the intermediate. Also, visualize ballflight before you hit and make sure the clubface is square to the target line. Those are also keys to making sure you hit your target. Semper Fi!

Golf Tips and Instruction 7/9/08

Friday, July 11th, 2008

In this issue we’ll discuss…

1) Achieving Putting Consistency
2) Senior Golf: Maintain Flexibility
3) Question of the Week - Struggling with Second Shots
4) Article - Hit it How You Want, When You Want
5) Article - Making Practice Pay Off

Jack’s Note: After watching the Women’s US Open recently, it dawned on my how big the ladies tour has really become. Used to be “uncool” to watch ladies golf but I gotta be honest…sometimes it’s more exciting than the men’s tour. More importantly, I think women’s golf is growing and in a good way. In fact, every day we have new subscribers who are women and for months I’ve been promising something to these ladies. I’m happy to announce after over a year of planning and hard work it’s finally complete. I’ll send you a quick note next week so keep an eye out ;)

===================================================
1) Achieving Putting Consistency
===================================================
Whether you’re playing in your weekly foursome, a club tournament, or a PGA event, putting rules. Good putting is a key to winning the match. Check the stats of your favorite player next time he or she wins a big tournament, chances are good the player had great putting stats. The key to achieving good putting numbers match after match is consistency.

If there is one thing that hurts consistency, it’s ball position. If you place the ball too far back in your stance or too far forward in your stance, consistency suffers. The ball should be about an inch or two back from your front heel, with your head almost directly over the ball. Ball position should be a key checkpoint in your putting stance.

Below are four other tips encouraging putting consistency:

* Get comfortable
* Use shoulders only
* Swing the same distance
* Release the clubhead freely
* Be aggressive

Putting is an individual thing. But there are certain things every player must do to achieve consistency. One is using the right stance. Find a stance that feels comfortable, one that’s not too narrow and that provides a stable base, and use it every time you putt.

Also, use the right stroke. The modern putting stroke features little wrist or elbow movement. Instead, a rocking motion of the shoulders powers the putterhead. The clubhead travels the same distance in the front stroke and backstroke.

In addition, be aggressive. Ideally, you want to putt the ball with enough force so that the ball travels slightly beyond the hole. Putts that never reach the hole have no chance of going in. Just be careful when it comes to downhill putts.

Putting Drill
Playing games and doing drills make practice fun while honing technique. Here’s a drill designed to enhance consistency. Go around the hole putting tees about a step apart—all at a distance of about four feet from the pin. Try to make four putts in a row from each spot. Concentrate on speed and alignment. When you make four in a row, move to the next station. Go right around the hole.

Putting from all directions at the same hole forces you to work on left to right and right to left breaks, helping to improve consistency. Try this drill next time your on the practice green. It works.
===================================================
2) Senior Golf: Maintain Flexibility
===================================================
Loss of flexibility is one of the biggest obstacles to senior golfers. We all have some degree of flexibility when were young. But as we get older, we lose some of our flexibility, which has a major impact on both our swing and our game. However, we can do things to compensate for a loss of flexibility and put some enjoyment back in the game of golf.

Here are five tips on adjusting to a loss of flexibility:

* Focus on accuracy
* Swing within yourself
* Adjust your turn
* Think low and slow
* Get regular exercise

The majority of swing flaws with seniors come from trying to hit the ball like they used to do. That’s difficult if you’ve lost some flexibility. While senior golfers may not be able to hit for power like they once used to, they can still hit for accuracy. Hitting your targets compensates somewhat for the loss of power.

Also, learn to swing within yourself. That means swinging within the natural boundaries of your sense of balance. Flexibility and balance can’t be maintained, however, if you swing too fast. Slow your swing down. Find a comfortable swing rhythm and tempo that keeps you in balance. Start by making a nice smooth takeaway. Try saying “low and slow” to yourself when starting your swing.

In addition, focus on your shoulder turn. As you get older, making a 90-degree shoulder turn may not be possible. You need to make other adjustments to compensate. Once you’ve found your maximum coil, adjust your rhythm, tempo, and timing to fit it. Keep the same swing dynamics and principles the same—just use a condensed version of your swing.

The older you get, the more flexibility you lose. Do exercises, like Tai Chi or Yoga that target flexibility. Improving it—whether a young golfer or an experienced one—benefits your game. More importantly, learn to make adjustments to your game and swing that make up for your loss of flexibility.

=====================================================
3) Question of the Week - Struggling with Second Shots
=====================================================
Q. Hi Jack, I play off a 22 handicap and have been playing for a long time, but I don’t seem to get any better. My main problem is my second shot, which I invariably fluff by digging into the ground very heavily. I can feel myself dipping (lifting my body on the back swing). Have you a drill to help?

Regards,
Mike Catterall

A. Thanks for the question, Mike. What you need to do is re-program your downswing so that you’re using the proper fundamentals. Below is a drill that teaches that. It’s great for learning the proper sequence of the downswing:

To begin, hold a medicine ball or soccer ball with both hands. Begin your downswing with both your feet and legs driving the movement of your arms. As you approach the bottom of the swing, throw the ball “down and out” and into the ground. Keep doing the drill until you’ve ingrained the correct downswing motion. Then go out and hit some practice balls. Keep in mind when hitting balls that you need to swing down and through the ball, creating a divot on the other side of the ball.

A medicine ball is better for this drill because it is heavier than a soccer ball. It gives you the feel of needing to through the ball with the muscles of your core rather than you arms and legs. But a soccer ball will do. Just keep the difference in mind.

Golf Tips and Instruction 7/2/08

Monday, July 7th, 2008

In this issue we’ll discuss…

1) Firing Up The 5-wood
2) Hitting Over A Tree
3) Question of the Week - Perfecting Your Draw
4) Article - Use The Hybrid To Cut Your Golf Handicap
5) Article - Don’t Flip It, Release It

Jack’s Note: So sorry about the snafu earlier this week with the bad link. We’re getting so much traffic to the blog these days that we’re going to be moving it to a new host to ensure we don’t run into this again. Despite these challenges, many of you still wanted to view it so we put up a temporary page here on a different server. And lastly, for the Americans, Happy Independence Day!

===================================================
1) Firing Up The 5-wood
===================================================
While the 5-wood isn’t as formidable a long-range weapon as the 3-wood or the driver, it’s still a potent offensive tool. It’s more versatile than a long iron. It hits the ball high. And it allows you to hit various shots. But you need to know when and how to hit it to get the most out of this club.

Here are five tips on hitting the 5-wood:

1. Check the loft on the club
2. Use a normal tempo
3. Look to create a small divot
4. Use a descending blow
5. Keep the ball low off the tee

The 5-wood is a versatile club. You can use it off the deck or off the tee. Many golfers carry a 5-wood in their bag and replace the long irons with a hybrid. Before buying a 5-wood, check the club’s loft. It should have at least 19-degrees, making it easier to get the ball higher in the air than with a long iron.

If you’re using the 5-wood in the box, tee it up low, take a normal stance, and make a descending blow, like you were hitting an iron. Don’t vary the tempo of your swing or try to overpower the ball. Like every club in the bag, the 5-wood has its limits. If you’re hitting it off the deck, you’ll generate a small divot when you hit correctly—that’s the result of the club’s shallow face.

You can also use the 5-wood hit a low shot in windy conditions. If you’re looking to hit a low shot, grip down on the club and stand closer to the ball. Many weekend golfers think you have to stand far away from the ball with the 5-wood, like you would if you were using a driver. You don’t

The 5-wood may not be the weapon that the driver is or the 3-wood. But it has its uses. Smart golfers learn when and how to use it.
===================================================
2) Hitting Over A Tree
===================================================
You’ve sliced your drive and you’ve come to a stop behind a tree. You’re still a ways from the green and you need to advance the ball. After assessing the situation, you realize that your only shot is going over the tree. You’ve seen others do it, but this is your first time, so you’re a bit apprehensive. But if you can pull it off, you’ll eliminate a big number from your scorecard and maybe save par.

Here are six tips on hitting over a tree:

* Check your lie carefully
* Look high in the sky
* Shift your weight back
* Slide the ball forward
* Think speed, speed, and speed
* Finish in a reverse “C”

Check your lie carefully before addressing the ball. If the ball doesn’t have a cushion of grass beneath it, the shot could end up a disaster. After addressing the ball, look high in the sky. This effectively drops your back shoulder, shifts your weight to your back foot, and positions your head and the club’s shaft behind the ball. Also, slide the ball forward in your stance.

To hit this shot, you need speed, speed, and more speed. Use a big swing. You should end up in that old school reverse “C” position you’ve seen in photographs of players like Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, and Arnold Palmer. This type of swing creates a more upward hit through the ball, resulting in a much higher launch than usual.

To achieve the kind of speed you need for a shot like this, try hitting some practice shots with the small finger of your left hand (right for left-handers) off the club. This slight lack of control gives you an idea of the type of speed you need at impact to launch the ball high enough to get it over the tree.

Hitting over a tree isn’t a shot I’d try too often. It’s difficult to pull off. But sometimes the situation dictates it. In that case, keep our tips in mind and think high in the sky.

=====================================================
3) Question of the Week - Perfecting Your Draw
=====================================================
Q. Hi Jack, For years I have fought the “Slice/Block with various drivers. I recently purchased the Taylor Made with the removable screws. I have left the screws intact and the first month or so I was hitting it high and straight but with fairly good distance (the loft is 11.5). In the last couple of weeks I have learned to keep it down and it is drawing a lot with 15 to 20 yards more distance 235-250 yards. My problem is that frequently the draw turns in to a big sweeping hook that has caused me to out of bounds left. How can I control the draw?

Thank you,
Patrick Johnston

A. Thanks for the question, Patrick. There are a couple of reasons why your shot turns into a hook. One is excessive hand and wrist rotation through the downswing. Instead of hitting the ball with a squared clubface, you’re hitting it with a closed one. This could be the result of using a slicer’s grip at address. So check your grip before swinging. Make sure you haven’t adopted a slicer’s grip at address.

Another reason is that your body fails to turn during your swing. When this happens, the clubface closes too fast, causing the ball to hook. If that’s the case, the way to cure the problem is simply to speed up your turn to the target. Increasing your body’s rate of rotation delays the closing of the clubface, eliminating the hook.

Try the Tennis Swing Drill to perfect the rotation of your body, forearms, and clubhead through impact to impart draw-spin on the ball.

Hold a tennis rack in your right hand. (Use your left hand if left-handed.) Now pretend someone has hit a ball to you and turn sideways to hit the ball. Swing halfway back. Now start a forward transition, mimicking the action a tennis player makes when hitting a topspin-forehand shot. Once you’ve ingrained that feeling, hit golf shots with your right hand only, again mimicking the tennis swing. Finally, use both hands on the club.

When you start using two hands on the club, visualize yourself hitting a tennis ball and carry that through your swing. That helps you ingrain the proper feel of a draw.

If you’ve got a golf question you’d like answered, send an email to us at questions@howtobreak80.com and we’ll review it. I can’t guarantee that we’ll use it but if we do, we’ll make sure to include your name and where you’re from.

How To Break 80 Newsletter

June 25, 2008

“The Web’s Most Popular Golf Improvement Newsletter”
===================================================

In this issue we’ll discuss…

1) Hitting Tiger’s Stinger
2) Five Keys To Maintain Tempo
3) Question of the Week - Maintaining a Level Shoulder
4) Article - Taming A Hard Course
5) Article - Sand Solutions

Jack’s Note: Ever wanted a perfect, reliable and consistent swing? Well, this week I posted several brand new videos for our Fast Track Members on how to do this in four simple steps. Didn’t see them? You can log in here. These added goodies are just one of the benefits of the program. If you’re not a member yet and want to hear what all the fuss is about, go here to sign up .

===================================================
1) Hitting Tiger’s Stinger
===================================================
Ever player needs a “go to” shot, one that he or she can hit accurately under intense pressure. In Tiger Wood’s case, it’s his “stinger” or knockdown shot—a low bullet that cuts through the air. This type of shot is great on windy days. A knockdown shot works under all kinds of weather conditions, is conservative in nature, and highly controllable. It is a scoring shot, since it enables the golfer to play into the green.

Here are five tips on hitting the stinger:

* Swing at a normal speed
* Start when parallel to the ground
* Turn the back of your hand down
* Relax your arms when you swing
* Keep the hands in front of the ball

The key to hitting a stinger is staying on plane with your swing. Swing at full speed and keep the hands in front of the ball, from address through impact. Your goal is to keep the ball low and under control, especially if you’re playing into a headwind.

Use a one-piece takeaway for the shot. But start the club’s release when the shaft is parallel to the ground. Turning your left hand (right hand for lefties) downward delofts the club. Also, try to keep your arms as relaxed as possible during the swing. Trying to “muscle” the ball results in a higher shot and more backspin, the opposite of what you want.

Players sometimes finish with the forward swing low and only half completed, and the wrists not fully released, as they would be in a normal shot. In addition, the follow-through should be a mirror image of one’s backswing. If it is, it tells you that you’ve stayed on plane throughout the swing.

The knockdown shot travels low and rolls when it hits the ground, providing added distance if the ball is in the fairway. It’s a great shot to know when the pressure is on because it’s the ultimate control shot.

===================================================
2) Five Keys To Maintain Tempo
===================================================
Tempo is the speed of your swing. It’s the time it takes for you to complete your swing, from start to finish. When hitting the ball well, your tempo is the same for every swing. When hitting the ball poorly, your tempo is different for different clubs.

Good tempo is as much mental as physical. In fact, it may even be more mental than physical. Below are 5 keys to maintaining tempo:

1. Relax at the start of your swing
2. Use the same speed for every swing
3. Keep the club’s limits in mind
4. Check your finish after a swing
5. Step off and swing one-handed

The start of your swing keys your tempo. As you start your backswing, your body turns in unison. In other words, your hands and arms move in sync with the rotation of your trunk. To achieve a good tempo at the start of your swing, you need to relax. Take a few deep breaths, exhale fully, and waggle the club. Opening your mouth relaxes you as well.

You lose tempo when you swing too hard. Instead, try to achieve the same smooth tempo for every club. Ease up on your swing and remind yourself that every club has its limits—even your woods. In other words, stay within yourself. When you need more distance, take a longer club. And don’t think you have another gear for the driver. You don’t.

One tempo check is your balance at the end of your swing. If you’re not in balance at the end, you’ve lost tempo. Rate your balance at the end of your swing from 1 to 5. Anything less than a 3 means your swing is too fast.

If you lose tempo during a round, you can recover it. Step off and take some practice swings with just your right hand (left hand for lefties). With one hand on the club, it’s hard to rush your swing. Swinging one-handed also teaches you to build speed gradually through your swing.

Good tempo produces good swings. Good swings produce good ballstriking. And good ballstriking helps lower your golf handicap. Now who wouldn’t want that?

=====================================================
3) Question of the Week - Maintaining a Level Shoulder
=====================================================
Q. Hi Jack, I play off a 17 handicap and hit very few greens in regulation per round.My downfall is a dipping left shoulder on the backswing, which reduces power.This also leads to a reverse pivot, slicing, and fat shots. My goal is to break 80 and improve my long game, but I have been stuck on this handicap for 3 years now. Until I solve this problem, I don’t feel as though I am going to progress much further. Can you suggest some effective drills for a better swing plane?

Regards,
Martin Braunton Auckland, New Zealand.

A. Thanks for the question, Martin. Achieving a level turn of the shoulders (and hips) is one of the keys to an effective golf swing. A level rotation promotes consistent ballstriking and lays the foundation for achieving maximum distance. Unfortunately, weekend golfers tend to execute poor turns by lifting, tilting, or dipping their shoulders. These actions destroy key angles formed by the back shoulder, hip, and knee.

A good drill to curb this problem is taking practice swings at half speed with your left arm only (right arm, if left-handed). Focus on making a level turn with the shoulder and hips, and stop at the top of the backswing to make sure your right side angles have been maintained. Keep doing this until you’ve ingrained the movement. Then switch to using two hands. Once you ingrained the movement, you’ll be primed for power and on the right swing plane every time.
