PurePoint Golf Instruction Tips on Learning How to Play Golf

Of course, when you're learning how to play golf there's a million different ways to address the golf ball because there's millions of different people that play the game. But there are some absolute qualities that you have to try to do to try to get in different positions at address.

Now, bad post would be where the knees are too straight: no bend at the hip and the back is too straight. This does not work, I promise you. This posture, you probably would hit a lot of pop-ups with your driver and hit the ground a lot with your irons.

The complete opposite would be where the knees are flexed too much and you're bent way over at the hips and you slouch your shoulders. This does not work either. This one creates hitting ground behind it and topping.

So, there's somewhere in the middle where one of these postures has to be about right, so let me give it to you.

Slightly flex your knees. Put two index fingers on your hip bones, and tilt over your belt buckle or tilt over your waistline. But do not let the shoulders slouch. Keep the shoulders back.

From here you can then turn and the golf club will be on plane.

If you try this when learning how to play golf, I promise you, this will help you.

Now, here's another tip for learning how to play golf. I once cave a golf lesson to someone who would need help with his consistency when driving the golf ball. When he swung, as the golf club went back, so did he, and then he slid back over to his right side. Now, from there you have to be extremely talented to match up the club face with your body, because you're just going to slide right back into it.

This reminded me of when I was little and the lesson my mother used to give me. A number of years ago, because I was so small when I was youngger, I used to drive the golf ball sliding backwards. And I did it so many times I got pretty good at it.

But at one point, when I was probably 12 years old, my mother used a golf swing training aid that I will never forget. There was an aluminum garbage can on the back of the practice facility at Fort Myers Country Club, and I remember it very well.

My mother went and got it one day and bought it over to the pile of balls that I was standing across from. She made me climb into it and hit balls while standing inside.

I hit balls for two weeks and she teed up every golf ball for me. And as you can tell, if you use your imagination, by using this golf swing training aid, it helped me to stop moving away from the golf ball. It made me start turning around, and that changed everything for my driver.

I did not hit it as far, but I hit it a lot more solid, and eventually, I got my length back.

So, if you're struggling, if some of your friends are saying to you that they see you sliding, use a golf swing training aid of your own, or use your imagination and feel as though you've stepped into a garbage can so you can feel the club go around and have your body turn around and not slide back and forth.

If you're struggling with sliding, think of the aluminum garbage can.

Thanks.
