Golf Just Became Easier

By Harry Hobson


Some of these golf training aids are suggested to be made use of in the center of winter or at the practice variety, be it in a dome, your garage, or right on the course. Course management is said to be the number one item that can either enhance or decrease your golf score.

One of my favored golf training helps is the Garmin Golf Watch. What that means is if you visit a golf course that has been loaded into this watch and then begin playing golf, you could track the distance you walk (if you do not take a cart) and will understand how far you simply hit your last shot.

Hmmm. But exactly how can that assist me with much better course management? Well right here is the neat aspect of the Garmin Golf Watch. I have actually just struck the ball off the tee on a 385 yard par 4 and it has landed about 5 yards into the rough. I can't see the white marker which would inform me exactly how far I have to the green. So I'm suspecting that I have about 160 yards to the green. Then I remember my golf watch. I look down at my watch and see that I have 165 yards to the front of the green, 169 yards to the center, and 177 yards to the back of the green.

Understanding that the tee is closer to the back of the green, I understand that I need to get the ball about 170 yards out. Now envision if I would have gone with my intestine sensation about being 160 yards away.

So the following time that you hit an errant shot that is a few yards into the rough, you can walk up to the ball and will know right away exactly how far you should hit it to get to the green. Sometimes it is merely course management and choosing the right club for the scenario. Now as for the rest and lowering your rating, course management is all up to you.
