Not All Buried Lies Are The Same
Presented by Golfers Report on October 11, 2019
There are buried lies in the sand, and then there are really buried lies. Which means that the shot you use to escape a buried lie depends on just how buried you are. While most of us think that the only way to escape a buried lie is to slam your club in the sand

Is Golf An Underhand Or Overhand Swing?
Presented by Golfers Report on September 1, 2019
Is the golf swing an underhand swing, side swing, or an overhand swing? Many of the videos advocate that the golf swing, like a baseball swing, is an underhand swing. For most of us who grew up playing baseball, softball or even stick ball, underhand seems like a natural way to swing. But in this
Should I learn To Hit A Flop Shot?
Presented by Golfers Report on August 26, 2019
I think the flop shot, lob wedge, is one of the hardest shots in golf. When it works, it is truly a sight to behold, and when it doesn’t – watch out! I have maybe three lob wedges in my garage, and every time I take one out to play I always regret that decision.
Have The New 2019 Golf Rules Really Made A Difference?
Presented by Golfers Report on August 18, 2019
The new USGA golf rules have now been in place since January 1, 2019. Long enough to assess if these changes made any real difference. I suppose there are two ways to look at this question. One is from the perspective of the pro tour, where it seems even the officials are still confused. During

How To Add Feel to Your Putting Stroke
Presented by Golfers Report on July 22, 2019
This is not your grandfather’s “How to Putt” instruction video; it’s a way different way of putting. In this video Matt Walter teaches us a way to putt that defies conventional wisdom. No pendulum, rocking of shoulders, or straight back-straight forward for Matt. And consider this, at some point we’ve all been told to not

Swing Drill For Ladies (But Men Listen Up)
Presented by Golfers Report on June 4, 2019
A common fault among new lady golfers seems to be the break down of the left elbow, where the club is lifted during the backswing by bending both elbows, a move that also results in very little body turn. Similarly, on the downswing the club is dropped and the arms are not fully extended, causing
The Correct Way To Make A Divot
Presented by Golfers Report on May 16, 2019
A divot tells you a lot about your swing; you can tell if your were aligned correctly; you can definitely feel if you hit way behind the ball; but it doesn’t tell you if you hit the ball first, and then made the divot. The key to hitting long crisp irons, is to hit the
What’s Better: Fade Or Draw
Presented by Golfers Report on April 30, 2019
Some of us have a natural fade and some a natural draw. The draw has such a pretty trajectory, makes you look like you know what you are doing and, it is said, gives you more yardage. While a fade just looks wrong, at least to the untrained eye of the everyday golfer. In this

The Pro Finish
Presented by Golfers Report on March 24, 2019
So what is The Pro Finish? We see it every time we watch a golf pro swing a driver. The arms are fully extended toward the target, right hand has rolled over the left, the head looks like it lies flat over a bent torso and we just stare in awe. Can my swing ever
Lose Those Power Leaks!
Presented by Golfers Report on March 14, 2019
Who doesn’t want more distance? Of course, the more important question is “what do you have to do to get more distance?” Well, the obvious answer, buying the latest and greatest equipment, may not be exactly what you need. Your golf swing is like a complex machine, and if a part fails somewhere in your
Want To Hit It Straight And Long: Fix Your Grip
Presented by Golfers Report on March 1, 2019
The first thing you learn when you start playing golf, is how to grip the club. And then you grip it however it feels most comfortable, which may or may not be right. We’ve all heard the terms a strong grip, weak grip and a neutral grip. But what difference does it really make how
A Bunker Is Not A Penalty Area
Presented by Golfers Report on February 10, 2019
There seems to be some confusion between what you are allowed to do in a Penalty Area (previously known as a water hazard, plus any area so deemed by course officials), versus what you can do in a Bunker. The rule that allows you to touch the sand in a Bunker, is not the same
Decision Time: Leave The Flag In, Or Take It Out
Presented by Golfers Report on January 25, 2019
There are lots of new rules for 2019, but I think the one that will cause the most confusion has to do with putting. Suddenly you are faced with a new decision – leave the flag in or take it out. In the past it was simple, because you always had to take the flag
