These tips for golf beginners will help to take you to the next level of game play.

1. Have you ever heard the phrase, “Practice makes perfect.” Great advice. And it does not always have to be on the golf course. Practice your golf swing in your back yard, minus the golf ball so you do not break the neighbors windows. Get a feel for your swing. Adjust your handgrip on the golf club. Vary your stance. Spend some time at the driving range, this is cheap practice compared to a round of 18 holes. You will not get upset at missing a shot when it really does not matter.

2. What ever you do when learning to play golf is do not go out and spend a lot of money on the best, hottest set of golf clubs available. When learning to play, they will not make that much if any difference in your game. Once you get a feel for your swing, stance and your style of play you will be able to make an informed purchase. I know you want look fly on the course, but resist the urge.

3. This is the most important tip for golfer, beginners and pros alike. HAVE FUN. It is always amazing how golfers ruin a perfectly good day getting worked up over a bad shot or a missed putt. Golf is a game that should be played for the enjoyment of it.

Once you start playing golf it will become addicting, but the pure enjoyment will make every game, every swing, every putt worth the time and effort your spent in learning the game of golf.
