Golf Tips :-

It's been awhile since I've published my last golf tip, but the weather has turned cold here in Western Pennsylvania and I haven't had a chance to play. Hence, my interests have turned from golf back to computers for the winter. This discussion will be for those of us for whom golf is only a seasonal pursuit.

In other words, to those of you who live in the warmer climates where you can play golf all year long, we hope an alligator steals your golf ball.

Here are some tips that might be helpful as you sit around the house waiting for the snow to melt.

Don't make the golf season shorter than it has to be. 50° is great golf weather so take advantage of it. Just dress warm and you'll be amazed how much fun you have playing in the cooler weather when the courses aren't crowded.

Take a golf vacation. There are countless resorts that cater to golfers at very reasonable prices. Check out some of our links to other golf web sites to help you find the right vacation spot.

Better than a vacation, go to golf school. These combine golf instruction with lots of playing time. What a great way to shave a few shots off your score.

Go snow skiing. What does this have to do with golf you ask? Well actually, snow skiing exercises a lot of the same lower body muscles that you use in golf. The leg movement and balance required for skiing translate very well to the golf swing. Not only that, it's a lot of fun.

Enjoy a few months away from the game. There's more to life than golf, so get out and enjoy it. Your time away from the game will help you enjoy it that much more when spring arrives.

This will be my last golf tip until spring - I'll be spending the cold weather working on my computer. Don't worry though, I've got a few years worth of golf tips ready to go so I'll be back with more in the spring.
