Your ‘go to’ club

I often see amateurs struggling with their driver early on in a round and yet try to keep playing with the same club through the entire round.

On longer holes many golfers feel obliged to hit a driver to achieve the most distance, but this can sometimes mean they just head further into trouble!

If the big stick isn’t working early on, switch to a shorter wood, say a 3 or 5 wood where your chances of hitting it straighter and keeping the ball in play can increase.

If you would like to book a golf lesson with a Royal Golf Club PGA teaching professional, call 17750777.
