Fairway Foxes Threesome

This month The Golf Babe, The Golf Hottie and The Golf Bomb got together for a three-some and triple-treat golf tip.

Introduction by The Golf Babe: Jack and Tiger always rave on about how they manage to win when they're not playing their best and don't have their A-Games. This is one of the keys to becoming a player, and once you learn to play with what the golf gods give you each time you tee it up, you can have my telephone number.

The Golf Hottie Speaks: I agree with the Golf Babe. She's not only a babe, but knows her shit. The first thing you need to do is understand you will not always have your A-Game. Many players (usually high handicappers) expect to hit the ball perfectly everytime. Once you understand that "Golf is not a game of perfect" (I can't stand Bob Rotella but he does have some good points), then you will become a better player already.

The Golf Bomb Concludes: So how do you play with your B-Game, or even C-Game. Well, most of us don't have any A-Game, but nevertheless, the single most important thing is to not get down on yourself and analyze every single bad shot. A bad shot is just that, and nothing more. If you hit a bad shot, will the D-O Double G still be rappin? Will Sergio still be Mackin? You bet ya. Many players hit one bad shot and thats the end of their round. Grind it out homeboy and just accept every shot as it comes.

You've seen the Nike ad where Tiger's bouncing a ball on his wedge (if not, see video link below), and I know you all want to do that to impress the hottie you saw at the range last week. Well, true, it does take some skill, but it's not rocket science boys. Here's how:

First, you must hold the club with the clubface pointing towards the sky.
To get the ball on the wedge, I'm gonna let you use your foot to scoop it up. Most wedge bounce wannabe's make the mistake of trying to drop the ball on the wedge. When you get really good, you can scoop it up without using your foot using your wrists, but I usually only tell punters about that on second dates.

Now, the key is, just move the club a tiny bit straight towards the golf gods using your arm, keeping your wrist and elbow firm. When I see most wedge bouncing wannabe's try it, they move the club too much, and not straight up enough. Once you've got it going, just try to stay still and focus as you would if something else were bouncing around...(you naughty boy)

Note how the club isn't moving much, tiger bounces big, but when you're first starting, you only want the ball to go a few inches off the clubface.
Also, when you get really good you can try the under the leg thing, notice how he doesnt move the club much, he's really just moving his leg, which makes it look harder and more impressive than it actually is.

Try it at home, when you're waiting on tee, or when you're waiting for your girlfriend to get ready and pretty soon you'll be a wedge-bouncing wizard :)

And here's something to make you feel better if you can't do it:

When The Golf Hottie Gets Hot

This month I got my knickers in a twist trying to work out what tip I was going to share with you and the other golf homies in the hood, so I took them off and aren't wearing any as I write this.

My little pearl of wisdom this month came from The Golf Hottie, who I recently played with. You won't believe this, but The Golf Hottie can get really hot, as in going low, shooting under par. I asked her what her secret was to being hot, and it wasn't her wonderbra. No. She said that she stayed in the present and played each shot on its own merit. The Pro's always talk about playing one shot at a time and staying in the present, and The Golf Pretty admits that she sometimes gets ahead of herself and a little excited about shooting a certain number, which more than often leads to her downfall.

So, next time you're going low, or have a chance to shoot your best score, get your mind away from any thoughts of doing such a thing and get back to the shot at hand. If you don't, The Golf Pretty might have to send The Golf Hottie after you and give you a little telling off.

See you next month my golf homie
