Firstly, online golf instruction videos. In general, YouTube instructional videos are mostly misleading and probably non specific to what you really need . Now, that’s not to say there’s not some great golf instruction on there, of course there is. However, for the most part, there’s a reason for the adage “you get what you pay [...]
If you’ve been playing golf for a while (at least a couple of years) you know the answer to this frequently asked question: Should I get fitted for golf clubs? – and the answer is a resounding YES!  But if you’re a newbie at the game, still trying to decide if you really want [...]
