The History of Golf
Golf as we know it was invented in Scotland, but its roots
stretches back into Flanders. The first record of "Chole" is
from 1353 and portrays a something that could be described as a
mix between hockey and golf played in Flanders (Belgium). The
game was preferably played on ice and the players used sticks
curved at the bottom to move balls from starting point to finish
point. Since Scottish and Dutch merchants traveled a lot between
the two regions and traded with each other, the game played ...

Your golf swing is good enough
If you watch the Golf Channel or read any of the magazines and
books on golf, it will be very hard for you to miss the basic
theme that "There is a perfect swing and you will do the most
for your game by trying to get it". Even when you watch a
tournament on TV, you see the commentators participate in this
conspiracy by showing us frame-by-frame analysis of the pro and
critiquing his/her every move. Now, maybe we can give the TV
guys a break because they are just trying for some ...

My Golf Disaster
Although I was never picked for sports teams as a kid, I always
thought that golf would be far easier than all the others as it
required very little physical exertion in regards to chasing a
ball up and down a field for 90 minutes while opponents try to
take the legs out from under you.
I mean, how difficult could it be? You stand still, look at the
hole at the other end of the green, look at the ball and then
hit it as hard as you can with a metal or wooden club. Even
better, once you do, you ...

Tips for Finding the Right Set of Golf Clubs
Golf is a game of nearly infinite subtleties. A slight rotation
during the swing of a degree or two can mean the difference
between hitting the green or landing in the bunker. Those same
subtleties are also apparent in a set of golf clubs. As
President Woodrow Wilson once remarked, "Golf is a game in which
one endeavors to control a ball with implements ill adapted for
the purpose."
With continued advances in golf club technology, it is possible
to see a difference in your game as a result of ...

Golf Fitness Helps Generate More Speed in Your Swing!
The golfing industry speaks about clubhead speed constantly. We
see advertised in the golf magazines all the time. We hear about
it on the Golf Channel endlessly
Clubhead speed is more a result of what you do with the golf
club than an entity of its own. A driver is not going to
generate clubhead speed on its' own! Someone has to swing it!
Clubhead speed is contingent upon swing speed. Swing speed is
directly related to the person swinging the golf club. So the
