When Pulling, Check Ball Position

From Donald Crawley, a Golf Magazine Top 100 teacher, director of The Boulders Golf Academy in Scottsdale, Ariz., and president of GolfSimplified:

If you pull your irons to the left, check your ball position. The ball may be too far forward in your stance, which will align your shoulders open and to the left of the target.

After aiming the club face, take your stance with the handle pointing in line with the center of your body. This will place the ball forward of center, but not up on the target foot. A bonus of this ball position is that your shoulders will be aligned square, not open. A combination of correct ball position and square shoulder alignment will fix that pull.

How to Break 80

From: Jack Moorehouse

Dear Fellow Golfer,

Let's face it, golf is probably the most difficult sport in the world. It takes a great deal of skill, mental fortitude and perseverance to excel at it. You have to have great hand-eye coordination, balance, athletic ability and creativity. You can receive all the best golf tips in the world and take countless golf lessons but you still can't seem to create any consistency...

Now, there are a ton of people who play golf just to hack around and have some fun. But more avid players are always trying to improve their swing and overall game. The problem is that golf is a very difficult game to master and you don't have enough time to practice to really improve significantly. Even the guys who play golf for a living and have the best golf instruction in the world still struggle and they practice every day!

BUT...

If you're like most golfers, though, you want to improve, not just hack around. Golf, when played poorly, is not a lot of fun. What do I mean by poorly? Let me see if this describes YOU:

I play golf 2-4 times/month and have never broken 90 or even 80
I can't work the ball (fade, draw, general trajectory)
I have at least 3 or 4 three putts per round
I rarely hit greens in regulation
I can't get up and down when I miss a green
I make a birdie once in a blue moon
I don't really know where the ball is going when I swing (hit and hope)


Even worse, I'm a more advanced player and typically shoot in the low or mid 80's frequently but can't break 80.


If you can identify with even one of those characteristics of a poor golfer, then it's time to do something about it. No one, and I mean NO ONE should have to play bad golf. Here's why YOU shouldn't settle for poor golf either:


Bad habits will only get worse if you don't fix them.


You are wasting money on every round of golf you play because it turns out to be an expensive practice round!


Golf does not have to be so complex and difficult. If you knew how easy it was to break 80 you would have far less gray hair, anxiety and uncertainty..


Golf is infinitely more fun in the 70's than it is in the 80's, 90's and 100's. TRUST ME on this one.


It really doesn't matter if you want to shoot even par or simply break 100 for the first time....the techniques and strategies in How To Break 80 will help you lower your handicap quickly. When you truly have a confidence in your game and your swing and have good consistency, it becomes more than a sport, but a true accomplishment. According to NGT Research, there are over 60 million golfers in the world today and less than half of us will ever break 100. 33% will break 90. However, only 5 % will ever break 80. That's 3 million people out of 60 million golfers. I have helped hundreds of people across the globe to break 80 and I am confident I can help you too.


"How to Break 80 and Shoot Like the Pros!" has quickly become one of the best selling books on the Internet because it is written and designed for those of us who actually have to do something else than golf to make a living. This is not a simple collection of golf tips, golf lessons or golf instruction...it is your personal guide to lower scores.


So, stop wasting money on expensive golf lessons and read on to learn how you can play better golf immediately.


My name is Jack Moorehouse. I'm an average Joe, not a Pro and most importantly, I know how to explain things in extremely simple terms. I am a working man like everyone else and golf when not working; carrying a respectable 5 handicap index. I used to play golf really well and then one day I lost it. Finally, after years of practice and tinkering, I discovered the magic formula that has me breaking 80 nearly every time I play!


You see, I was able to and do exactly what the pros do consistently and apply it to my own game. The results were astonishing. In this book, you will learn the simple steps to create more consistency with your swing and game in general. To learn these steps takes approximately 30 minutes and he also provides drills to ensure you can incorporate these new techniques into your game. Now, this isn't simply a guide that shows you 4 steps. It is a complete manual on how to shoot your best scores ever. I cover all aspects of the game so that you can develop a solid all-around game in your quest to drop shots. This golf instruction guide will be the last book you read on this subject. All contents of the book are designed to do ONE thing.....lower your scores!
