Well, you could take the putter out of your friend's hands. However, that's not really a solution, is it? There's nothing quite so frustrating as 3-putting after you've hit one, two, or three quality golf shots to reach the putting surface. Though, obviously, a three-putt can occur when you are attempting to save par after a couple mis-hit strokes as well. It can rear its ugly head at any point during your round of golf. If the dreaded three-putt terrorizes you and mars your scorecard frequently, then quite clearly you need to spend some quality time on the practice green. Finding a purposeful putting routine prior to playing can prevent this plague of poor putting. It's not just going to depart by meer wishing it away. A few minutes of rehearsing lag putting will improve your long distance feel. While focusing primarily on putts of five feet and closer will really hone in on the culprit. Too many missed short putts inevitably add that extra stroke to the scorecard. It is an absolute must that you see some balls go in the hole prior to starting your round. My goodness! If you have no more than a couple minutes before teeing off, confidently knock in a half dozen three-footers on the practice green. Certainly, it's best to show up earlier and you won't have to rush through this process. Sure, at times you'll encounter a practice green here or there that is nothing like those on the course in terms of speed or undulations. Most good courses, though, in my experience, offer a real opportunity to gain a feel for what you'll face once you transition from the practice green to the real deal. What's the best way to avoid having your head exploding with each blemish on the putting surfaces? I suggest spending a couple minutes every day or every other day just honing an efficient stroke with the putter. Yes. You can definitely do this at home! Don't make excuses about the type of surface you have at home. As just alluded to, you are going to have to learn how to adjust to the pace and contours of various greens at the different courses you play. Spending money on new putter after new putter is most likely not going to bring a positive resolution to the three-putting woes. Yet, I won't dismiss the idea that a new feel with a flat stick can occasionally be just what the doctor ordered. Or maybe it's a change in the length of the putter, or a change in the style, texture, or size of the physical grip that can inject a dose of confidence. Even an alteration to the manner in which you hold the putter can sometimes work minor miracles and lead to an increase of the number of putts you hole out. Tinkering with these is all well and good if you've already got a command of the basics of a solid putting stroke. Whatever the case, don't delay dealing with this issue before it becomes a serious ailment and impediment to good play on the course.

Do you think that this female Tour Professional has her hips open at impact? You're darn right she does! You might ask, "In what Multiverse will my body be able to do that?" Fair question! I doubt that there is a version of you that can replicate what you are observing in this video. Yet, with that truth being self evident, it is still no excuse for having a serious case of the "lazy legs syndrome"! As discussed earlier, you are probably capable of producing a greater degree of openness at impact than you are at present. But, in order for this to occur, you absolutely, positively must begin the downswing with the lower torso. The change of direction in your swing must be not only noticeable to others but especially to you! Of course, you're not going to see it, except if you have a video of your swing, but surely you can feel it. Believe me when I suggest that you absolutely must feel the "lazy legs" transformation take place. I've taught countless people whose major inclination is to proceed from the end of the backswing with the dominant feature involving the hands and arms. If you are in this large contingent of players, believe that you can change! Most importantly have the desire to change. Accepting the need for alterations brings a purpose to your practice. Proper, purposeful practice breeds improvement! Improving means an increase in the quality of your ball-striking. Better contact equates to better golf shots and that always leads to more enjoyable time spent on the golf course! Don't delay or underestimate your physical ability! Work on opening up your hips today!

Even if you don't currently have a significant amount of rotation in your golf swing, you can certainly work to increase the turning action. I've mentioned once or twice that I spent some 25+ years as a personal fitness trainer during the Winters. The mindset of training the body through a series of specific movements has always carried over to my golf instruction. Virtually everyone, with the exception of those with physical disabilities and various challenges, can learn to rotate more efficiently through simple rehearsing of the actual coiling of the body and then the ever-important releasing of it. You just cannot play up to your potential if your rotational swing component is lacking. The key is always to discover what your potential is regarding this particular component. I work with my students as if I had them in the gym. I train them to maximize their personal capability in a movement that is indicative of moving away from the target as well as pushing the body to move more efficiently in a manner reflective of turning towards the target. Today is the perfect day to begin your training! I work with students of all ages! The older folks are often surprised by how much they can rotate when actually pushed to do so. On the flip side, at times I have to rein in my teenage students who are so naturally flexible. Nevertheless, many of them who are still new to golf don't correctly utilize the appropriate rotation in their swings. You certainly don't have to be in a fitness center to train your body to increase its range of motion throughout the entirety of the motion -- stretching your muscles as you simulate both the backswing and the downswing. Always remember that you are not attempting to precisely duplicate the degree to which somebody else can turn in both directions. Rather, this is your own personal fitness journey. Your experience will be unique to you.

Emma enthusiastically demonstrates her homework assignment! What a great golf swing! Outstanding attitude towards learning! Needless to say, Emma is more fundamentally sound than the overwhelming majority of the students that I teach. Be like Emma! Have fun while you are in a constant state of improvement!

Good for them! Great company! Great exercise! Great sport! Keep it going ladies! What other sport can you play in the great outdoors at a ripe old age?

Sure. It can be a fun social experience. That is at least until you get the bill. It's still way too expensive even with the drop in pricing. I have a few unused gift certificates for Top Golf. I just can't get myself to go and spend an absurd amount of money. To each his own, though.

Topgolf announced Monday that it is lowering gameplay prices at all U.S. locations after guests said cost was the biggest barrier to visiting more often. ⛳
