The basic building block of solid golf performance is your swing, and golf swing practice is something that you shouldn’t neglect. When I was first learning to play golf, I was so eager to play that I almost never stopped to practice my swing. Eventually my friends started getting better and I was not. Luckily, they told me what they were doing that I wasn’t: practicing their swing. Just as a basketball player can’t be successful by going weeks on end without some practice shooting the ball at the basket, any golfer who wants to avoid being embarrassed in front of his friends or coworkers should remember to regularly practice his golf swing.
