  • Eliminate those thin shots across the green.

 

Save perhaps for putting, the short game is for many a golfer, the most infuriating aspect of their game. Not so much because they struggle at it more so than any other aspect of their game, but because it seems so simple on the surface. After all, you have a lofted club in your hands, all but unanimously considered the easiest clubs to hit, and you also have a short distance shot. Why then do so many players flub their chips, spray their punch shots, and otherwise mangle their short approaches all over the course?

The mistakes that average golfers make when approaching short shots are many. They rarely consider which club would work best given their intended shot path, their ball positioning is usually off, their swings are inconsistent both in speed and length of backswing, they use too much body movement, and they have trouble keeping their heads still.

While there are many reasons for poor short game play, the good news is that most of them can be easily corrected with the proper training, and by utilizing the proper techniques, and these techniques are what PurePoint can teach golfers of all skill levels. Besides technique, there are other intangibles that can help immensely when discussing short shots, and while these can’t be quite as easily taught, they are other facets of the short game you should consider working on.

If you talk to the best pros in the game, they’ll say two of the most important traits you can have that will undoubtedly help your short play are a great imagination, and vision. And when we say vision, we don’t mean 20/20 vision, but rather vision in the sense of being able to visualize shots, predict how they’ll react after they leave the club and strike land, and where they’re likely to end up.

Of course vision and imagination are of little use if you can’t properly execute those magical short shots dancing around in your head, and this is where the PurePoint golf system comes into play. With PurePoint, you’ll firstly learn how to properly prepare yourself before the shot. This includes proper alignment, ball placement, club selection, and more.
Once you’re ready to strike the ball, you’ll learn how to develop a steady, consistent, and easily repeatable backswing and rhythm, to ensure your shots are going the desired distance, every single time. Distance after all is the number one killer of what could otherwise be decent short shots, as players have a much greater tendency to flub or overcook short shots than they do to dramatically slice or hook them.

Lastly you’ll learn other tips and tricks to take into consideration when standing over short shots, such as how to choose which shot type to play, and how to get into a routine before each shot that will focus you on the task at hand, hitting great chip shots.
These elements combine together to create a program that guarantees that any golfer, with the proper practice and training with the PurePoint system, can hit their chips within five feet of the hole, effortlessly, every single time they step over the golf ball. If you’re tired of throwing those shots that you know are easier than you’re making them, you have to give the great PurePoint system a try.

The old golfing adage may be “drive for show, putt for dough”,  and though the saying does carry much merit, so too does smacking a ball 300 yards down the center of the fairway, leaving yourself a nice little nine iron into an elevated green.

Driving of course is the area of the game concentrated on by many players, and the one most practiced. After all, belting it deep and carrying a big stick is the surest way to impress one’s buddies (we could perhaps also cite Freud in this manner, but we’ll refrain). Drivers are booming business because of this, and the area of the game where players spend most of their money.

Despite all this attention and practice, many players still have difficulty consistently hitting good drives, both in accuracy and distance. This is no surprise of course, as even the best players in the game only average in the range of 65% of fairways hit. The full swing is, after all, an incredibly complex series of movements, where even one small miscue can lead to disaster.

As such, there are many things to consider, and many different areas to work on. The biggest mistake many players make when practicing their drives, and in fact when practicing any area of their golf game, is that they aren’t actively working on improving specific things. They assume that the mere act of practicing will inevitably make them better, yet while this may be true of many things, it is not true of golf. Continually hitting shots via poor techniques will never lead to better, more consistent results.

A solid swing must be developed from the ground up, using proven techniques. Once the fundamentals of swinging the driver have been mastered, the player can freely expand and develop their swing further, tweaking it where necessary to personalize it, and make it more comfortable and stable for the individual.

PurePoint’s golf system seeks to give this fundamental structure and base to players, and has successfully done so for tens of thousands of players worldwide, those same players currently out-driving you on the range with their efficient and effortless looking, yet powerful swings.

Through step-by-step video instruction, PurePoint breaks the drive down into its most basic components, showing you proper alignment and posture, grip, hand position and body position throughout each stage of the drive, and much more. Through this carefully crafted instruction, you’ll be able to truly break your own swing down and find its inherent flaws.

Breaking free of the vicious cycle of poor practice is paramount to success. Stop practicing poorly, and start practicing efficiently, with PurePoint’s award-winning golf system. With the increased skill and confidence granted by these brilliant teaching tutorials, you’ll be well on your way to driving the ball farther and more accurately than you ever have before.
Driving the golf ball is not easy, but you can make it easier on yourself with PurePoint. So stop hacking and start swinging. In fact, you may develop driving skills that would make even Freud himself blush.

Maximum Distance DVD

Hit Your Clubs Farther and More Accurately Than Ever!

Did you know that you have the ability to perform magic? Yes indeed. You’re a magician in training my friend, with the ability to turn your 9 iron into an 8 iron, your 3 iron into a 2 iron, and your driver into…a super driver. Yes, you have the ability to make each and every club in your bag far more effective than it currently is, increasing your distance gain with which club by as much as 15 yards, well over a full club’s worth of increase in distance. How can this be accomplished? How can you begin your training in the PurePoint School of Golfing and Scoring? Read on to find out.

If you asked the casual player how to increase their distance, they would invariable come back with similar answers. The less popular answer, but the one with more merit, would be to hit the ball solid. The overwhelming choice though would be to swing harder. It seems to make sense after all. Logic would seem to dictate that the harder you swing, the farther you’ll hit the ball.

This isn’t entirely true though, leading many players to commit a double fault (a tennis term, for lack of a better golfing term), as they swing harder with little to no benefit, while suffering the consequences of doing so – poor balance, erratic accuracy, and terrible inconsistency.

The truth is that many other factors influence how far your ball travels, the most notable of which is probably club head speed (which is not dependant so much on how hard one swings, as it is on how well one whips their club head through the ball, very similar to cracking a whip). After all, the ball is being struck by the club head, and not your arms. Therefore, the club head speed is of far more importance than your arm speed, and is not increased solely through increasing that arm speed. In fact it is much more reliant upon solid and consistent wrist action.

In golf, there are always numerous variables at play, and all of these must be taken into consideration when hitting a golf ball, and especially when doing so aggressively, with the goal of hitting the ball farther than ever before. That’s why the PurePoint system discusses how to increase your power not just with every club in your bag, but with every club, and under just about every conceivable condition.

You’ll find chapters devoted to powering your ball through a strong headwind, smacking it straight and true off a shoddy lie, increasing your distance while shaping the ball, as well as while using shorter shot types such as punches and chips, and much more.
Increasing your distance through the PurePoint system will allow you to relax and play consistent and balanced golf, without worrying about over-swinging yourself right out of your plaid golfing pants. You’ll find you’re hitting your clubs farther and more accurate, and when coupled with the ability to play shorter clubs on every hole, your scores will dramatically increase.

You really have nothing to lose, and quite a bit to gain, at least 15 yards on each club’s worth. Don’t delay in taking your own personal magic lesson today.

There’s two things that impress and awe the casual golfer and/or golf fan more than anything else when they watch the pros play. The first thing is spin on the ball. There’s nothing that elicits ooh’s and aah’s quite so much as a ball landing on the green, taking one hop, and then quickly darting off in a completely different direction.

The second thing is watching pros shape the ball any which way they please. Whether it’s belting it low to stay beneath the wind, lofting it up high so it lands extra soft, or curling it left or right seemingly at will, many high handicap players are in awe of what the pros can do to the ball.

Yet for all the mystique that seems to surround the pros shaping and spinning of the ball, these feats are actually not particularly difficult for any player at all to pull off. Granted, you still have to pull off a good shot and make solid contact for the ball to do what you want, but the actual mechanisms used for the shaping the ball are not terribly complicated.

With this mind, we’ll touch on some of the basics of shaping the ball, and in particular, drawing the ball, so that you too can one day draw it like Freddy (Couples that is).
Most players have difficulty enough hitting a regular shot well, let alone additional shots like draws or fades, which is why many players have failed to add these shots into their arsenals, believing as they do that these shots require some sort of complicated additional manoeuvre during the swing to perform them.

The truth is that hitting a good draw shot mainly comes down to alignment and club position at address. When aiming, you’ll want to aim right of your target. How far right will depend on many factors, such as distance to the hole, wind, and how much you routinely draw the ball when using this shot at that distance (which you will of course only learn with time).
Now of course if you just went ahead and hit a shot from this position, your ball would simply go right, which wouldn’t be of much help (unless you happened to pull your shot, in which case you may luck out into a good position). So to complete the draw setup, you’ll need to rotate the club at a certain angle, so that it imparts spin on the ball as it strikes it. The common rule of thumb is to set your club on a path directly at your intended target, as if your alignment was setup that way (that is, your intended target after the ball has drawn, and not the actual target you’ll be initially hitting towards).

You then take a normal swing at the ball and let the magic of spin work your ball right to left for you (assuming, as mentioned above, that you struck the ball well). Working your ball well is usually the final step a player makes as he/she moves from the ranks of the hacks and duffers to the ranks of the true golfers.

If you’re interested in more information on working your ball, including detailed instructions and tutorials, the PurePoint golf system is the absolute perfect teaching aid. For an overall solution to your golf swing we recommend the Full Swing DVD.

Bunker DVD

Get Your Ball Out of the Sand and the Bunkers Out of Your Head!

PurePoint Golf Bunker DVD

There are few things that scare an amateur golfer more than having to play a shot from the sand. It leads many a high handicapper to take up temporary residence in the bunker, as they hack and flail at the ball in a futile effort to lift it out of the sand and on to the otherwise inviting green. To the casual observer, these poor duffers look like they’re attempting to prove the old myth true by digging their way all the way to China, one giant sand divot at a time.

What exactly is it about these sand traps that cause amateurs such unrelenting pain? How can they go from building sand castles, to saving par? We’ll attempt to answer these and many other burning questions below.

Bunkers of course require a different approach than hitting from any other surface, and this usually the casual player’s downfall. Most amateurs attempt to play bunker shots like they would any other shot, which simply doesn’t work. With this approach, the casual player is likely to snag their club in the sand on their first two attempts, pushing the ball forward mere inches, then catching it clean on their third attempt, sending it sailing out of the bunker, over the green, and into the far green side bunker.

Bunkers shots must be approached differently, and this includes the way you align yourself with the ball, your swing plane, and more. With the proper training, players will quickly learn that there is absolutely nothing to fear in playing from the sand, and it may indeed be an advantageous position in some cases. This is evidenced by watching the pros, who will readily aim for green side bunkers on long approach shots (typically into par 5’s), rather than have the ball end up in the far more unpredictable clutches of the rough.

You see, for all the randomness that many players think the sand imparts, lies in the sand are often much more consistent and favourable than those in the rough. Save for the occasional plugged ball, bunker shots are usually quite routine for the skilled player.
But how to become skilled is the burning question on the minds of all you sand scaredy-cats. You simply need a good instructional foundation to work from to help build your confidence in the sand, from which point things will begin to snowball (though they’ll snowball uphill, not down – yes, it’s possible, trust us).

The PurePoint golf system is one of the most thorough systems available for detailing and breaking down bunker play, while remaining accessible and simple for even the most casual player. In this system you’ll learn how to address the ball, the proper backswing and downswing, the ideal follow through, how to control your distance from the sand, how to play long iron shots from those pesky fairway bunkers, and much more.

You’ll leave your training with this system filled to the brim with confidence, and ready and eager to take down any bunker that stands in your way. A day at the beach will never feel so good. Of course, if you’re British and have to deal with pot bunkers, ignore everything we’ve said and avoid the bunkers at all costs. Your sanity may depend on it. Good luck to all in your sandy endeavours.
