Golf Exercises Don’t Have To Be Grueling Saturday, Jun 28 2008 

Golf exercises are viewed by the majority of golfers as “work”. That is why it is so difficult to convince golfers that golf exercises can be fun and don’t have to wipe you out physically.

I’ve worked with many golfers in person and with my online golf performance sites, who were shocked to realize how much fun and motivating golf exercises can be.

Don’t picture going into a sweaty, smelly gym and lifting god-awful weights. No…picture doing golf exercises that mimic your golf swing and have a direct impact on your power, accuracy and consistency.

This new outlook will be a huge motivating factor in the success of your golf exercise program. When you envision the end result, it makes it all worthwhile.

It’s also a double benefit!

Doing golf exercises that closely mimic your golf swing, will not only improve the strength and flexibility of your golf swing quickly, but reinforce your swing technique off the course. This double benefit will transform your game.

Get ready for powerful drives, accurate approach shots, and scores that will plummet.

Golf exercises can be done with very affordable and portable equipment saving you time, money and convenience. The thought of going to a gym; or having to join a gym to get started will keep you from starting indefinitely.

Your golf exercises can be done in your home, office or even a hotel room with exercise tubing, a pair of handweights, and maybe a stability ball if you want to get a little more creative.

They are not golf exercises if they are on a machine (especially seated ones). How can a seated machine help your golf swing, when your golf swing is done on your feet, in a very dynamic position require timing, sequence of motion, and stability to name a few?

So next time your golfing buddy says he’s doing golf exercises, ask him (her) what they’re doing specifically. If he/she says they go to the gym and use the machines, you won’t have to say anymore.

Fueled with the above, affordable equipment you are ready to embark on your golf exercises.

How A Hacker Developed A Winning Golf Swing Saturday, May 31 2008 

I’m probably erring on the side of understatement when I say that Bob was a hacker. By his own admission he was: “one of those players who’ve never really had a proper golf swing.”

The way he told it, his main concern was to give the ball a ‘good whack’. As a result of his lack of technique, Bob had spent much of the ten years that he’d been a golfer searching for his ball in woods and long grass. High scores and a high handicap seemed to be his inevitable fate.

Bob and I first met when his employer asked me to coach him to develop his business and leadership skills. When we were working on ‘communication’ I used a technique that I call Mind-Movies. I taught Bob how to groove pictures into his imagination which showed him making successful presentations.

Mind-Movies are a technique that I developed for empowering clients when I qualified as a Certified Master Practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (mind-language programming).

One day when Bob had just reported making a very successful sales pitch with the aid of a new Mind-Movie, he asked me, in that slightly shy way of his, “Do you think we could develop a Mind-Movie that would help my golf swing?”

I immediately knew that we could do this. It took a while to work out how best to program the correct images into Bob’s mind. And I also had to work out how to string those images together into a golf swing Mind-Movie. Then it was just a matter of finding ways that he could program himself to reproduce the correct physical and emotional feelings which are an essential part of effective Mind-Movies.

By the late spring we were ready. Bob couldn’t wait to get going. He was hungry to to start winning. There were a lot of people on whom he was keen to take revenge.

He devoured the script I had written for him to study and learn.. However, he knew from his previous experience with Mind-Movies that in order for it to work he had to make sure that he installed this new program properly into his mind.

The very first round he reported ‘noticeable improvements’. He was hitting the ball further and straighter. It was only the odd wayward shot that prevented him posting a really good score. He knew he was on the right track. “It was the first time that I’ve felt like I had a proper golf swing,” he told me excitedly.

Over the next few weeks Bob improved steadily until he felt up to entering a competition. He deliberately chose a mid-week event where he knew that the field would be smaller. He finished fourth in a field of thirty seven players and his handicap was cut by two strokes. This was by far the best result he’d ever had. He was over the moon.

A month later he felt ready to challenge for one of the major championships at his golf club. He didn’t win that one but three weeks later he rang me late one evening to proclaim: “I won!”

At the end of the month I was his guest at the prize-giving where he received his silver cup. From my experience with Mind-Movies I feel certain that his game will continue to improve.

After Bob’s success I decided to publish The Golf Mind-Movies Power Pack at http://www.The-Golf-Bandit.com/golf_Mind-Movies.htm And I now know from the feedback I’m receiving from other golfers that Mind-Movies are also working for them.

The fact that the search term ‘golf mind-movies’ is already number one on Google tells you how many golfers are seeking out this e-book. If anyone you play with shows sudden signs of improvement you may now know why.

Please do your golfing friends a favor and tell them about this book. Send them a copy of this article today.

Selecting Golf Equipment that Compliments You and Your Swing - 4 Tips for Making the Best Choice Wednesday, May 28 2008 

Tip #1 - Ignore The Hype - Pay Attention To Your Needs!

As a recreational golfer, you probably don’t pay that much attention to the golf equipment that you buy. Industry has a way to hype its sales pitch by its marketing gurus and most recreational buyers pay attention to the hype instead of their own needs.

Today’s equipment has certainly come a long way and shafts, club heads and balls certainly do perform the way that the makers claim. However, the secret is finding a club maker and/or a club fitter that knows you and your swing and can recommend the right equipment for you.

Tip #2 - Let Your Clubs Fit YOU!

Whether you are 5-foot-6 or 6-foot-6, the average golf club will not be right for you. The lie and loft will change dramatically due to arm and leg length. Finding a good club maker or club fitter that understands these requirements can DRASTICALLY shave strokes off your scorecard.

In relation to this, statistics show that the average family has 2.4 children. Well I have never seen two-fifths of a child! With that said, just what is the average person? Again, now you can see why it is imperative that you fit the clubs and the clubs fit you!

Tip #3 - Decide On Your Price And Find A Pro!

Price is most definitely a factor when purchasing new or used clubs. It is of NO use buying expensive clubs and the shaft is the wrong length or stiffness/flex or conversely buying ‘cheap’ clubs when your game is of good quality.

The idea is to have the clubs compliment your specific swing and swing speed. There are subtleties in the making and matching of your golf clubs - swing weight, loft and lie, graphite or even steel. Also, there are different textured grips which can be matched to fit the size of your hand or fingers producing a better bio-mechanical action.

We all have different swing speeds, different swing paths and planes. We are all of different muscle strengths and of course body types. Decide what price range you can realistically afford and find a pro/coach/instructor that can set you up with a set of clubs that will produce the BEST for you. I cannot stress enough that it is ultra important to get the matching equipment for you. Some people are short and some people are tall…choose the right equipment and begin to watch your game improve and lower your scores.

Tip #4 - Use A Lower Spin-Rate Ball!

Today’s golf ball has advanced with technology. Different spin rates and cover materials have allowed the golfer to actually choose a ball that suits both his/her game and the conditions he/she
plays in.

The slicer and hooker can get more distance and straighter shots by using a lower spin rate ball. Cover materials allow for more feel when chipping and putting. There are even tools that will use centrifugal force and a marker pen to produce an ‘equator-type’ line on the ball that aids in alignment and ‘trueness’ of the roll of the ball.

Advancement in equipment is good…make it GOOD for you by selecting the right equipment to enhance your game!

2006 Toronto Bluejays Predictions Wednesday, May 7 2008 

With all the talk about the Yankees and Red Sox once again duking it out in the American League East, the Toronto Blue Jays could be the sleeper of this division. They are led by arguably the best pitcher in baseball, ace Roy Halladay. Halladay was well on his way to the second Cy Young Award of his career last season before taking a season-ending line drive off the leg, which sent him to the ground and the DL, courtesy of Kevin Mench. The irony of his injury is that it’s normally Halladay who gives batters seats. He appears to be fully recovered heading into 2006 and has looked sharp already in spring training. There’s 20+ wins the Blue Jays can count on in one man.

Right hander A.J. Burnett should couple with Halladay for a formidable 1-2 punch. He looked good in his first spring training start and has proven that he has the ability to strike batters out to get out of jams. Chacin and Lilly are good enough to round out the rotation and keep opposing teams in check, especially with two aces at the top of this rotation. BJ Ryan was added to the bullpen this year after having a big year by picking up 36 saves on the Baltimore Orioles last season. He held batters to a .208 batting average and has the potential to pick up 40 plus saves if this team will play up to it’s potential.

First baseman Lyle Overbay and former Angel Troy Glaus bring big bats north of the border as well. Troy Glaus is the real deal and he showed it again last year by hitting 37 home runs and driving in 97 RBIs. Overbay doesn’t have a lot of power but is solid defensively and hits for a nice average. Vernon Wells is a superstar in the making and last season he ended up with 28 home runs and 97 runs batter in.

Toronto backers should be ready to profit on the 2006 Blue Jays as the organization has made great off season moves and their team appears to be a serious contender on paper. Toronto has provided backers with 3 winning seasons in the past 4 years and 2006 should be an even better campaign as they appear to have great balance on both sides of the coin.

One thing to watch for is that the Jays were often undervalued by bookmakers as an underdog last season. I don’t expect this to be the case as often as we have every reason to believe they’ll be even better than last year. They won 15 of 28 games as a road underdog in division play last season for a positive 10 unit gain, and I expect them to improve on that mark this season. Look for the 2006 Blue Jays to sneak up on the Yanks and Sox and leave the Orioles in the dust. This team has enough pitching to make a statement and a lot of powerful hitters in the middle of the lineup.
