Unless you are from a warmer climate the winter can be tough on a golfer. Not everyone has access to an indoor place to hit balls or get extra practice. For those golfers who have to spend the winter months away from the course I always recommend that you try to get into a regular stretching and lifting routine.  Working to promote flexibility and strength is one way to insure that you are able to be at your best when you finally get back on the course.

The winter may be the off season for many golfers – but for PGA TOUR pros the season never ends. This week I was back at my home course, Olde Stone Country Club in Kentucky, working with a client named Justin.  In preparation for the 2009 season, Justin and I have been working together this winter on keeping his stroke and swing smooth in.

Next week, I will be home spending the holidays with family in Kentucky and getting to do a little duck hunting with one of closest friends, Justin Perry, Kenny Perry’s son.

Happy Holidays and I wish you all the best in the New Year!

Last week I talked about a simple test you can do to discover which is your dominant eye, this week I would like to share with you how you can use that knowledge to your advantage when you putt.

Line of sight from your dominant eye helps you determine the exact position of the ball. When you align yourself to putt you should always position your dominant eye directly over the back tip of the golf ball. Positioning yourself this way aids alignment and allows for proper impact on your putt.

I want to thank all of you for taking time to read these postings and I want to wish you all a Happy Holiday Season and a great New Year!
