How your Health can benefit from a round of Golf

How your Health can benefit from a round of Golf.

Believe it or not, golf is actually good for your health and not just watching on T.V.. Even the United States Golf Association thinks so; they also advise that you should walk the golf course instead of riding in a golf cart.
Although riding golf carts is the easist way to get yourself from one hole to the next, it will actually be good for your body if you
walk your legs along the greens. Doing so pumps your heart, circulates the blood all over your body, and is a good and fun way of
exercising.
Most experts will tell you that the most pleasurable way to play golf is by walking. Depending on your age and health condition, riding carts should be used only when needed.
Walking is an excellent form of exercise. It is the most basic and easy program of getting fit which almost anyone could do.
Simply put, walking is good for you.
Although some believe that walking the golf course is a very unhealthy thing to do because of the nature of the game the start and stop process of golf playing. In actuality though, there have been scientific studies as well as evidence of people actually telling
their personal experiences on the positive effects of walking through a game of golf. In another study, golfers who walked the course were found to be in a better state of health because the level of bad cholesterol in
their body decreased. Meanwhile, the level of their good cholesterol was steady. Those golfers who settled to ride their way
across the golf course on golf carts,, however, did not show these same positive health results.
Also, according to a golf International study , four hours of golf playing was found to be comparable to attending a forty five minute
fitness class.
Another golf association, stated that when a golfer walks across a course, it is roughly equivalent to walking up to three or four miles. This included walking around hills, over greens and tees.
Not convinced yet? Maybe you should try doing the following activities and see, as well as feel, the difference for yourself.
1. During a round of golf, try to walk along alternating holes so that by the end of your round of golf you should be able to have
walked through a total of nine holes.
2. If you are feeling not up to it yet as fully as you should, that is okay. Maybe you could try walking on a set of nines while you can
ride the other set.
3. If you have a golf partner and he or she insists that you ride along with him or her, make sure that you only ride on the path of
the cart. You can then walk down to the fairway towards your ball and then your partner could bring the golf cart up.
Are you convinced yet? If not, try to look at it this way. If your health is not good enough for you to settle to walk those legs and
pump that good old heart of yours, then at least take pity and be considerate of the damage that golf carts do to fairways.
Believe it or not, golf carts do create damage around sand traps and around the greens. Even if carts are not supposed to ride
along these areas, sometimes though, depending on who is behind the golf carts wheel, they still at times do.
For the sake of the greens, go walk! Because of advances in technology, there are now grasses that are able to grow on areas that
they originally are not supposed to grow on at all. As a result of this, golf courses look as amazing as they were before.
Unfortunately, these same golf courses are as subject to a lot of wear and tear as well.
Driving a golf cart along these beautiful greens subjects them to unnecessary damage. So now that you know, it would not hurt
you to consider walking along, across, over, or through those greens now would it?

Value Golf Vacations by spensor

From Pensacola to Keywest and from Jacksonville to Naples, everywhere you look there is a golf course waiting to be discovered in Florida. With more than 900 courses spread over an area of 58,560 Sq. miles is it any wonder then that the state figures on every golf holiday maker s wish list? Golf erupted on the recreation scene in Florida sometime during the early 20th century and the Sunshine State became the most preferred golf vacation destination for enthusiasts across the country.

Two things that swing in favor of Florida being the no.1 place golf tours head to are the prolific presence of top-rated courses and near perfect weather all year round. Another plus is that golf holiday makers have to spend lesser putting away in Florida. Golf is spread out over all major regions with Orlando coming up the tops. Although Disney World has been a traditional competitor, with more than 150 courses, Orlando was meant to be savored on a golf holiday. Courses like the Bay Hill Club and Eagle Creek added in the top 100 best courses in America list by Golf Week see a lot of golf travel enthusiasts.

But the courses at the Grand Cypress are the single most popular on most golf tour checklists. Grand Cypress whopping 45-holes Jack Nicklaus extravaganza is enough to keep your golf vacation busy for a few days. Three 9-hole courses: The North, South & East courses are stimulating in their layout and the way they test a golfer s skills, the 18-hole new course is a Scottish style links course for the more traditional golfer. The best part is that you need to extract only about $120 for the four courses.

Tampa, with its fantastic array of first-class resort courses, upscale daily fee and semiprivate tracks, is fast becoming a delightful golf travel destination. Make a stopover in the other "city by the bay" just for World Woods that offers two top 100 courses Tom Fazio designed Pine Barrens and Rolling Oaks. At $75 each, playing 36 holes on natural golf terrain is quite a bargain. Pine Barrens snakes through a thick pine forest and offers different levels of difficulty with sudden elevation changes and large fairways and teeming bunkers make the game more enjoyable. Sharply defined bunkers and silver white sand contrasting with the well kept greens on Rolling Oaks lend it an Augusta like quality. But don t let all the prettiness fool you because Rolling Oaks is an equally challenging and dramatic course that will add flavor to your golf tour.

The First Coast, home to the PGA Tour and host of The Players Championship, has a course to suit every palate and purse. If your golf travel does not include Jacksonville it would halve the fun. Give it a miss and your golf tour would be poorer by an experience to remember on the Jack Nicklaus designed Ocean Hammock Golf Club in Palm Coast. This 18-hole, ocean front course would cost you $189, however the view and the mentally challenging game it throws up makes it worth the while. Other courses in J-Ville that should figure on your golf vacation checklist are the Pete Dye designed Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach and Arthur Hills creation The Palencia Club in the historic town of St. Augustine .

Golf travel to Florida can expect some of the hardiest yet eye-catching courses like the Calusa pines golf club in Naples and the best part is you don t have to pray for a fortune to play them. If you want to know more about golf, please go and have a look at http://www.golfwholesaleonline.com/

Learning How To Putt Requires Having Quality Golfing Habits by Tim Adami

Why so many 3-putts occur when a warm up routine of hitting a few golf balls, putt a couple then off to the first tee surprises me. These are the same players that complain about their scores afterwards. To be a quality putter, it is necessary to practice putting and incorporating a pre-putting routine. These are even necessary to practice mentally to know what the "feeling" is before any pressure situation occurs.

By practicing your routine and then your putting stroke, you prepare your mind and body to produce a quality putting stroke and instill quality golf habits.
Is your desire to break 100, or 90 consistently? How about 80? Are you incorporating putting techniques that assist in making putts or lagging close enough for an easy 2-putt? Or because you don't shoot those scores, you don't care how well you putt?

Putting techniques begin in the mind and taken to a practice putting green to ingrain the feeling of a putting stroke. Practicing every element of the putting stroke begins the process of constructing one of quality that is repeatable. This includes your pre-putt routine.

Putting is a "feel" exercise which begins in your mind. Your sense of feeling the stroke, seeing how the putter travels and knowing the amount of force to connect with the golf ball achieves the ultimate goal; getting the ball in the cup.
Picturing in your mind the path the golf ball shall take starts by standing or kneeling behind the ball and seeing the breaks. Seeing the apex of the arc in a putt and then extending that to the hole tells you how much break there is. Then anticipating how much swing of the putter is required to make the golf ball travel to the hole is critical. Speed is the major factor in all successful putting.

If your putting stroke is consistent, speed should be the only element that a good putter needs to determine. There are many factors that are practiced and learned, then you're able to work on speed, reducing all the pressure that any putt can have. The factors of a quality putting stroke consist of; * Posture that is comfortable * Balanced on the balls of your feet * Ball placement slightly ahead of center * Hanging of your arms from the shoulders * Firm wrists that don't break * Maintaining of the "Y" by utilizing the shoulder blades * Extending the "Directional Point" parallel to the intended putting line

When setting up to the golf ball for a putt, you need to have a comfortable posture that is well balanced and one that can hold up for the entire round. Your arms should hang down from the shoulders with your wrists remaining firm throughout the stroke.

The eyes are over or just inside the golf ball with your shoulders, forearms, hips, knees and toes parallel to the intended line the ball travels. The putting stroke is controlled by the rotation of the shoulder blades, which moves the arms, wrists and putter shaft as a unit. This is what creates a quality putting stroke.
When you have spent the time developing this quality putting stroke, it becomes second nature. The path of the putter head remains similar; the setup feels comfortable; it is done as a unit. Good putting habits are critical to performing when it is necessary to scoring low. The putter is used more than any other club in your bag, so make it the best club you use.

A quality putting stroke must have the mental element incorporated. Your mind controls and training it first then repeating these memories at the practice putting green, ingrains the feeling of the putting stroke. When these are repeatable and the confidence has been found, you will find that your scores are lower and you are reaching those goals of breaking 100, 90 and even 80.
