PLAY BETTER GOLF – BE PREPARED
Want to get that little bit extra out of your golf game? Why not start by being physically and mentally prepared better for your round. Here’s a few points to remember:
- Charge your mobile phone and buggy battery (if applicable) the night before you play
- On the day of play, arrive at least 30 to 40 minutes before your round tees off to unload and prepare your clubs and buggy
- Check you have sufficient drinks to keep yourself hydrated during the round (the course may not have bubblers out there)
- Put on some sun-screen and wear a hat/cap
- Pay your green fees and then read any Local Rules posted on the club noticeboard
- Stretch/Flex yourself a bit, then have a practice swing (being mindful of anyone near you) and finally,
- Have a practice putt or two.
Now you’re ready to enjoy your game. Play well!
