Golf Scrimmages:
Realistic Practice Games Under Pressure
ISBN-10:  0-9787502-0-9 ISBN-13:  978-0-9787502-0-6

This book has received remarkable accolades because it is a perfect match for golfers of every ability level as well as golf coaches and teaching professionals. Its 230 pages mainly consist of nearly 100 games that help golfers practice the types of shots encountered on the course while at the same time under the same pressure that is felt on the course. Many of the games have two or three versions giving the book approximately 200 games in total. With this many competitive practice games you’re sure to find plenty of new ones along with some familiar ones that have an added twist.

It is crucial to practice in the same environment in which you’re going to play. To do this, two components must be introduced to your practice – Pressure and Physical Conditions that are similar to the golf course. Pressure is applied through a scoring system, a goal and a consequence if that goal is not attained or a simple contest against a friend. Physical Conditions found on the course must also be present. This includes different lies, awkward stances, various situations and circumstances as well as varying your club and target. A lack of these components is why so many golfers have a hard time transitioning a respectable game to the course. It creates a wider division between the practice tee and the first tee. The games within this book are what make practice more similar to playing and therefore more meaningful and effective. A description of every game in the book along with its rules and variations are clearly laid out. Additionally, a color photo complements almost every game in the book. The chapters preceding the games discuss the importance of proper practice, adding pressure, how to turn the practice facility into the golf course and how athletes in other sports prepare, by scrimmaging.

Putting Laser Line by Eyeline Golf

Being a teacher who uses few training aids, I get excited when I come across one that is exceptionally worthwhile. It is an extremely useful tool with regard to improving one’s putting stroke. There are lots of training aids on the market - putting arcs, straight edges, angled planes and many others. The truth of the matter is those types of putting aids are built for one plane and that plane may not match your putter’s shaft plane plus they only work your putter’s plane or path when your putter’s club face can also cause misdirected putts. This laser device, which clips easily onto the shaft, proves that your putter’s shaft is being swung ON-PLANE and therefore that your putter’s head is moving on the perfect path for how your putter is built. The line also lets you know when your putter’s face is square, open or closed unlike a spot or dot laser. Also unlike other putting aids, because there are no physical guides keeping you in place, this one makes YOU perform the stroke giving you a much higher probability of ingraining a consistent motion.
