Chuck Evans – Executive Director of Instruction – Medicus Golf Institute Golfers need to understand that in order to create backspin, trajectory and distance control the ball MUST be hit in a downward motion.  To do this the club shaft MUST be leaning forward at Impact!

By controlling your movements you control your pre-shot routine by a great deal. Before a shot often fast players get slow, and slow players will get fast. The reason they do that is because they are getting conscious. They’re stopping their pre-shot routine because they get into another pre-shot routine, and they have to learn it all over again for the first time and they increase their chances of failure. Make sure when you’re under pressure that you control your movements, that they are exactly like the ones when you are not under pressure. Don’t walk down the fairway twice as fast. Walk at the same rate you usually do. Don’t take three looks at the hole instead of your normal two looks. Don’t take five waggles instead of your normal three waggles.

The Cloud Nine Series from GolfClubsHome.com

GolfClubsHome.com has come out with a new series of clubs that may be some of the nicest clubs they have ever offered. The new C9 series features high quality materials and the latest technology. Although slightly more than GolfClubsHome.com’s other models, the C9 series uses the same materials and design technology as nationally advertised tour player brands costing 4 times as much. This should mean great performance from the C9 series for you and your golf game.

Irons
The C9 irons are the most advanced iron design GolfClubsHome.com has sold to date. These super game improvement irons feature a 6-4 Titanium face insert. This technology has several design advantages for cavity backed irons. First, it allows most of the clubhead mass to be concentrated around the perimeter of the iron head creating a larger sweet spot for more forgiveness. Second, Ti faces can be made thinner than stainless which maximizes COR or ball velocity. A 20 gram tungsten insert was added to the toe to balance the iron head and lower the center of gravity. This creates higher, straighter golf shots. This is a high-tech iron at a fraction of the cost you’d expect to pay.

Hybrid
The nicest hybrid with the hottest technology that GolfClubsHome.com sells. The C9 475 features a Carpenter 475 super steel face combined with a 17-4 stainless steel body. Combined with a tungsten sole plate this club delivers unparalleled performance and quality. GolfClubsHome.com says that C475 steel produces the hottest, longest hitting clubhead faces they have tested. The tungsten sole plate creates a very low center of gravity for higher, softer landing shots. Hybrids are hot and these are some of the hottest.

Woods
The C9 c455 Metal wood brings high technology to fairway metals. The ball literally explodes off the c455 forged variable face thickness design. Carpenter Technology Corporation, the world renowned steel manufacturer patented its proprietary c455 stainless alloy to be strong and durable. This allows the face to be forged thinner that traditional stainless metals, the result is more ball velocity and longer golf shots. The 3 woods have a slightly larger head than standard which makes it a good choice from the tee on tight holes.

Driver
An understated design conceals core technologies that make the C9 VFT Composite Ti driver an exciting new introduction. A variable thickness face is milled to expand the sweet spot making this an excellent choice for the player that does not have time to practice often. Beta 5-3-3-3 Ti is cut from the crown and filled with an advanced carbon fiber that allows weight to be redistributed to the sole creating a trajectory that optimizes spin rates on today’s high performance balls. Titanium crown structure gives added support and reduces distance loss due to crown deflection. The titanium support also creates a solid impact sound that is sometime missing from other composite crown drivers. Sound is important and the C9 Ti sounds solid.

If you’re looking for the latest technology in golf clubs but not ready to spend your kids inheritance to do it… you might want to consider the GolfClubsHome.com Cloud Nine series. These are great clubs at a great price. Like all GolfClubsHome.com clubs you can use their eFit System to get custom fit and choose shafts and grips from the best names in the golf business. You also get a risk-free 30 Day Play Guarantee. Pretty hard to go wrong with that scenario. Give them a try.

Mastering the short game in golf is a key to lowering your scores. Without a doubt, if you can master your putting game, you can dramatically cut strokes off your game.

Good putting starts with your grip. You need to pick a grip that is comfortable for you and allows you to easily control your putter. The reverse overlapping grip is the most widely used.

The index finger on your left hand overlaps the little finger of your right hand. Many golfers prefer the index finger to overlap more than one finger.

The thumbs are straight down the front of the shaft. Your hands should be at the top of the club, or close to it. Gripping too low on the shaft is not recommended because of the longer distance the club would have to be swung for the longer putts.

Your feet should be about shoulder width apart. Stand close to the ball with your arms close to your body and your eyes directly above the ball. Bend your knees slightly and bend your elbows.

The swing should be a relaxed swing. Your arms and your hands move together through the ball in a perpendicular motion. You want to stroke the ball with the middle of the putter head. Keep your eyes on the ball at all times and you should see the putter hit the ball. Do not look up to follow the flight until you have completed your swing.

Adjust the length of the swing according to the distance of the putt. The swing mechanics remain the same for short putts and for long putts. The length of the swing is all that changes.

When lining up the putt, the putter head should be square to the target. If you anticipate a break to the right, for instance, your intended target will be above the hole. How far above the hole you aim depends on the break of the green. Your putter head will not be square to the hole but will be square to the point above the hole where you expect the break to occur.

You want to practice putting before you start your round. Too many golfers hit the practice green and begin trying to drop long putts. It will be to your advantage to start your practice putts close to the hole. Get this stroke down until you are comfortable and the ball is dropping consistently.

Now begin to move away from the hole and continue putting. As you get more comfortable, begin to move farther away. For most weekend golfers, the objective is to get long putts as close as possible to the hole to make the putt more manageable. If you can consistently make putts from a short to midrange distance, you will easily lower your golf scores.
