Get out of your comfort zone
Dear golfer, People hate change. We would rather put up with nagging problems rather than do something about it. My biggest problem is paying bills on time. I’m hopeless…I wait until the last minute, until the final notice comes through or even a fine arrives before taking action. It’s quite embarrassing and I’m forever back…

Craig Parry – a real golfing champion
Did anyone watch Craig Parry win the Australian Open golf yesterday? I did and thought the golf and coverage were excellent.

He…
Another look at the short game
I have written about the importance of the short game before…but I thought it would be a good idea to cover some important points again. In the last few weeks I have received a number of calls and emails asking to describe the key points of putting, chipping, and bunker play and the best way…
Taking Golf Instruction Too Far … a case study
Dear golfer, I took a trip away over the weekend to play with a regular client. John is from Thurgoona, near Albury on NSW and Victorian border. I hadn’t played at Thurgoona before and was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the golf course. It is long, measuring over 6,300 metres. Although there seems to…
