June Tip #3: Clocking Your Distance

I hope that you have found the previous tips to be helpful. Here is another good video golf tip that will help you with your game. When practicing this start by using your 100 yard club. Work on keeping the same tempo for all swings so the size of your back swing will determine your distance. After you feel comfortable with this club, use this drill for your wedges and other irons. This drill will help you control those approach shots and also give you more choices when you find yourself in between clubs. Good luck!

June Video Tip #2... Chipping Club Selection

Hope you enjoyed the last putting tip. Here is another video tip that will help you with your short game. Practice this around the green, transfer it to the course, and you will see your scores go down.

The goal - get the chip shots rolling sooner, closer to the hole, fewer putts.

Clothing For a Cause... Travis Mathew

The Haggin Oaks Super Stire is honored to carry a few brands that donate their money to a charity. Over the next few posts I would like to share those with you.

The first company is Travis Mathew, an apparel company that started in 2008 by John Kruger, Chris Rosaasen, Travis Brasher and John Mallinger. Haggin Oaks started carrying this brand in 2010.
The sales from their everyday lines don't normally go to charity but recently they have done something wonderful... This first polo is called The Jake Polo, named after Jake Olson, this is his story... http://youtu.be/fZwd2_ahMY
The second polo is one that was created through a contest "Design Bubba's U.S. Open Polo". Bubba Watson will wear this during the tournament and the winner will be flown out to watch. $10 from the sale of every shirt will go to Birdies for the Brave, the Military outreach initiative proudly supported by the PGA Tour. Watch to find out where your donation is going... http://youtu.be/Dj-SAnZAEyl, http://youtu.be/ePWmuDT5thA
Tell me this is not just Awesome!!! Feel free to share your thoughts by leaving a comment. You might also catch Matt wearing a Travis Mathew shirt in the shop or on the lesson tee.
Thank you!

Putting Tip... Close Your Eyes

For the entire month of June I will be posting a new video golf tip each week. This week's tip is a putting drill that I like to work on when I am struggling to make putts or loose my feel with the putter. When I practice I go through the same pre-shot routine as I would on the golf course but once I am ready to go I close my eyes. By closing your eyes you take away one of your major senses and you focus more on the feel of the putter and rolling the ball towards the hole. Also, instead of focusing on the results, picture your target in your mind and see the ball rolling into the hole. Try this drill first with short putts and as you get more comfortable increase your distance. Hope this helps you make more putts and have all the confidence on the green.... Drive for show, putt for dough!!
