Presented by Golfers Report on May 15, 2016

Presented by Golfers Report on April 17, 2016

Should You Have A Strong Grip?
Presented by Golfers Report on March 6, 2016
by Chris Ryan We hardly give any thought to the golf grip. That is until someone, giving us free advice, tells us that perhaps we should change our grip. Invariably they are telling us to change to a strong grip, because that is what the pro’s have, and they hit the ball a ton. We
Hitting Tree Trouble Shots Left Handed

Lose Those Chip Chunks And Blades
Presented by Golfers Report on January 16, 2016
by Gary Allis Is there anything worse than being thee yards off the green, visualizing the ball rolling straight to the hole and then chunking your chip shot?
