Are your golf clubs the correct lie for you?

If you find that your divots are not straight but are cutting across either left to right or right to left, the lie for your clubs may be too upright or too flat. This will cause great inconsistency in your ball striking, resulting in you hitting the ball right or left of the target.

How Do I Check This?

Go to your local club professional or nearest stockist for the brand of clubs that you have and ask them to check out the lie angle of your clubs.

This is easily done. The procedure is that you will go to the range and will hit balls from a small graphite mat. You will then try a variety of clubs (usually a 5 or 6 iron) with differenting lie angles. A sticker with graduated lines on it will be placed on the sole of the club and you will continue the process until you find a club where you are marking the sticker at the neutral point. This is the lie angle required for your clubs.

Now that the correct lie angle has been determined, they can be altered to suit you perfectly.

A golf club professional will be able carry out this work for you in his workshop for a reasonable fee. I would imagine that a stockist would have to return the clubs to the manufacturer to have this process carried out, unless they have golf club tool facilities in store.

I know from personal experience that Ping will carry out these alterations for you free of charge. Your local professional will return them to Ping for you and all you pay is the postage costs. I have had this work carried out by Ping on 2 occasions. On a 3rd occasion I was a bit pushed for time as I required the clubs for a competition, so I asked by local professional to carry out the work in his workshop. It was slightly more expensive that just paying postage costs, although only marginal and I had the benefit of having the job done almost immediately.

So if you are having problems with ball sticking consistency and your divots are not straight, have the lie angles checked out.

It may be all that you need to lower that handicap.

Golf GPS systems can significantly increase your skills and expertise in golf. These very accurate and effective devices inform you of the remote distances to the front, center and back of greens. Obtaining this information will help you become better at your game over time.

Golf GPS units give you a yardage scope and range which will help you in determining what club is best for making your next shot, the amount of force needed, and the direction to hit the ball. Seeing the illustration of the front to the back of the green will allow you to get a better view of its size. These systems also tell you the slope of the green so you are able to determine which way you should angle your shots. Figuring out the distance left to the green at a yardage range instead of a single range gives you a better chance at making the shot.

There are several different brands and types you can purchase, so doing your research ahead of time is important. Units that are accurate and provide a full-color touch screen are typically the best choice. Many golf GPS units display a graphical overhead view of the hole, key in helping you see and plan your shots. Once in this view you can then touch any spot on the hole to get the yardage to that location and the distance to the pin from that spot. It is also good to look for a system that features a scorecard that will enable you to record your score, the number of putts, and even show if you were able to hit the fairway or green on the first shot. This shot-tracking element will allow you to track your shots and the club that was used for each. Many units then compute the minimum, maximum, and average distances that you have stuck with each club. You can then download this information onto your computer to examine later, giving you a chance to analyze the ins and outs of your game.

There are many benefits to owning a golf GPS system. Choosing the right club to use on any shot is definitely a necessity in helping you improve your game. Seeing the distance on your shots will help you to also become more familiar with the game. Guessing all of the time can really hurt your golf score and leave you feeling frustrated. Professional golfers know this critical information when they are playing and it is a big part of what makes them so successful. Now it is your turn to really start becoming that masterful golfer that you have always dreamed of being.
