Golf Tips:
  • Tension kills a golfer's distance, so hit the ball further by losing the white-knuckle grip on the club. Deep breathing and muscle-relaxing skills will help to focus only on the swing.

  • Golfers need water when they play, especially in hot weather. While some might not want hunt down a bathroom after so much liquid, the alternative can ruin the game. Being dehydrated affects the mind and body, tipping the correct balance of bodily fluids. The hotter the climate, the more need to drink water.
Noteworthy Comments:

I want [golfers] to feel the quiet back in the swamps where all they hear are their own golf shots and talking to their buddies, the egrets, wood ducks, and wildlife. I want them to see and experience that."

Quotation by Claude Purdue, owner of The Witch Golf Course.
