Sometimes incorrect vision can cause dizziness, which you cannot afford to feel when you are playing, so better have so eyes checked sooner for golf is a very visual sport.

It is exhilarating to hit the ball and see it flying. But before doing that, see to it that you perfected your posture and stance. The bend of your knees, stance width, and the distance between the club and your body have to be precise. Generally, you can pinpoint what kind of player a golfer is just by looking at their posture.
Also, a good posture determines the shape of your swing. How can you identify a good position, these are how:
- Stand straight and tall slightly.
- Have a pelvic tilt (butt out) with a flat back as you bend over.

Most beginners find it difficult to swing the club, but you can get it right with a lot of practice. Acquiring this skill will set you apart from the average golfer. Be amazed to see how better your score will go and how more natural your game will be if you acquire a perfect pitch. There are two kinds of pitch: 1. Pitch shot – this is where the golf ball’s journey is longer through the air rather than on the green. 2. Chip shot – on the other hand, is when you are closer to the green, and the ball travels in the air for just a little while before rolling out to the hole.

Have a Putting Rhythm
You can say that putting is the most critical skill in golf. Rhythm is the duration of time it takes from when a golfer puts the putter up until the moment you make contact with the golf ball. This rhyme should be consistent no matter the distance of the putt. It should not change because altering your rhythm can affect the conformity of face angle and impact location.
In impact location, there are four parameters needed: first, ball position before impact. Second, the precise time of impact and third, the position of the clubhead at impact. The face angle, on the other hand, is the direction the clubface is pointed. Whether it is right or left, you can say that this is an essential element if you want to ascertain a golf ball’s starting direction.

What is a bunker? It is a depression on the golf course, either human-made or natural made. It is not always filled with sand. A sand strap, on the other hand, is a man-made pit filled with sand. A bunker shot is challenging, though not impossible.
It can be tough for beginners, but a golfer will know how to execute the hit with practice on the beach. You can use your typical club to hit the ball out of the bunker or use a wedge. In doing the beach drill, golfers can gradually become comfortable with hitting the difficult shots. With some tips, useful videos and practice will make you good at bunker shots.
Know Your Weaknesses
Whatever the schedule of your practice, be it every weekend, twice a week, or every day, try to keep track of your performance to see the difference in your game. Take note of where you are lacking, what techniques you find hard the most, and practice it a lot longer than needed.
In the end, a good golfer can control their golf ball. They don’t have to play or shot perfectly, but they must have the ability to make most shots go in the hole’s direction. Learn what works best for you and play your best golf based on that. Remember the saying that practice makes perfect.
