Recreation is described as any activity performed during ones leisure or free time.

One of the biggest summertime recreational activities is golf.  And, as the season is coming to a close, everyone is trying to get that last game in.  I ran across some golf tips that I thought I would pass along to you:

Curing The Slice

• Keep your left arm straight and rotate it before impact.
• Line up ball on heel of club at address to promote inside-out swingpath.
• Use a strong grip, light grip pressure and relaxed forearms. This helps square the clubface at impact.
• Grip club in fingers. This also adds distance

Stance

• Play ball far enough away to get full extension.
• Aim clubface first. Then align your body.
• At address, your hands should be about four inches from your thighs.
• Keep your head up.

For More Distance

• Maximize coil and keep body relaxed with a light grip
• At address, keep most of your weight on right foot.
• Widen your stance, with toes pointed out.
• Tee ball high and hit it with an ascending blow.

Putting

• Stay down through impact
• At address, keep left hand ahead of or over the front of the ball.
• Soft hands improve feel and relieve tension.
• Maintain constant pressure in both hands throughout the stroke.
