Week 1 Newsletter
Let’s make this golf season your best yet!
My Friends,
Golf is back here in the Northeast and I couldn’t be more excited. As a matter of fact, I will be open for golf instruction at Shaker Ridge starting this Thursday, April 16th! This winter was productive, I had the privilege and opportunity to be mentored and subsequently certified by top ranked golf instructor in the world Hank Haney, former coach of Tiger Woods and two-time major championship winner Mark O’Meara. Combined with my performance psychology training certifications, other critical skills and experience, I’m ready to work with you to improve your golf game. Each week, I hope you will enjoy these newsletters that will include useful golf tips, drills and more!
Contact me today: (518) 727-1677 / dave@davemahoneygolf.com / www.davemahoneygolf.com.
All my best,
Dave
Changes in Grip Pressure May Help Fine Tune Your Ball Flight
Hitting a Slice?
Problem: The club face is open to your swing path at impact.
Try: Easing up on your grip pressure.
Why: Allows the hands to be more active through the hitting area helping the clubface to square while encouraging a draw ball flight.
Hooking the Ball?
Problem: The club face is closed to your swing path at impact.
Try: Slightly increasing your grip pressure.
Why: The hands will be less active through the hitting area helping the club face to stay square encouraging a straighter ball flight.
