How to hit a lob shot
The lob shot is a pretty good shot to have. It can get you out of trouble and make you look good in front of your friends. When played correctly it can certainly save you a shot or two each round. Well worth having the ability to hit a good lob when you need it…
How to play better when you’re feeling off
Golf can be hard work. Chances are you’re never going to be feeling 100% – your swing feels bad, you have no confidence, your back is stiff and you’re not happy about the weather. But this is exactly the opportunity to show us what you’re made of. Are you able to put all of these…

Daniel Gaunt
Daniel Gaunt is a great golfer. We played a bit during the 90’s and roomed together during Tour School. He was way better than me. In fact, he was better than most.
