If you’re a beginning golfer or even an intermediate golfer, you probably already know there are thousands of companies touting their ability to help you improve your game. Which are worthwhile and which are simply worthless? Unfortunately, only you can answer those questions. There are some things you can consider to help you evaluate the products and instructions to decide whether it’s worth the time, effort and money to incorporate them into your golf game.
One of the first things to keep in mind is that golf is an incredibly popular sport. As such, everyone sees the potential for making a profit by offering advice or products “guaranteed” to make your golf game better. That means that many of the companies are going to be offering worthless information and gadgets. Remember to evaluate the company as well as the golf products before you buy. Guarantees are a good sign that a company is legitimate, but be sure the guarantee is iron-clad.
Start your quest for new golf products by evaluating the needs of your game. Where are you weakest? Don’t simply listen to your golfing partners, but don’t ignore their advice either. Take a realistic look at your game and try to figure out what areas could use the most work.
Focus on a small area at a time. If you say that your entire game needs work, you’re setting yourself up for failure. Even as a beginning golfer, the game should be fun. If you’re working hard at every step, you’re quickly going to start thinking of golf as work – and that wasn’t meant to be.
Consider hiring a tutor for regular sessions. Make time to actually play golf after the lessons so that you start incorporating what you’ve learned into your game.
While gadgets are fun, consider their value before you make a financial investment. Some golf aids are simply ridiculous, but the companies producing them count on the fact that some golfers are anxious to improve their game without putting any effort into the process. A helmet that will perfectly line up your shots probably isn’t going to work. On the other hand, some golfers find it useful to make a mark on the golf ball to help them line up the shot. Deciding what gadgets to invest in depends entirely on the individual – what works to help correct problems.
In the end, the goals of the golfer are likely to be the most important part of deciding whether golf aids, gadgets and instruction is a wise investment. For the weekend golfer who simply wants to get some exercise and enjoy time with friends, a bad game of golf may be sufficient!
