Golf Tour To England
By:Reed Langdon
Are you tired of Golfing at your local course, and the need to make a tee time reservation one week in advance. Have you been an avid golfer all of your life and want to give yourself the golfing experience of a lifetime, a place that is just full of extremely beautiful landscape, rich in history and culture, aside from some of the most outstanding Golf Courses in Europe, and worldwide for that matter. Head over to beautiful England for a truely memorable experience.
England has one of the oldest histories in the World. Go to England and play on courses that are hundreds of years old, which you realize after comming across your first castle. Courses following the edge of the forest, fairways flowing out along the rolling hills or alongside the Ocean, with incredible views to be remembered, so be sure to bring the camera, this is a must.
Play on the same courses that have been traveled on by Kings and Queens, and a history of Royal family members. While you are there do not forget the other sights as well, make it a memorable vacation, and golfing adventure. Walk down cobble stone streets that are older than your own homeland where ever that may be.
Visit the World famous art galleries, museums, maybe even tip a pint in the local pub, just for the experience, since they are meeting places, and favorites for family members alike, darts, stories, travelers socializing with new local friends alike.
View architecture that has shaped the way we build today. I see the old English style in many countries, far beyond just the states, but even Raffles in Singapore, the origin of the Singapore Sling.
View the countryside that Legends once walked upon, and all the time playing your favorite pastime Golf. Taking the time to decide not only where you want to play but also what sights you are looking forward to. I must say, the grass is never greener playing different Golf Courses in England. It really has its own style and character, no other can match it with the mix of history.
Are you looking for the large cities like London or do you want the quietness of a smaller rural course. A romantic get a way with your better half or a full tour of all that England has to offer. The right decision will make this trip a most memorable Golf Vacation Tour.
Lets look at a few courses to give you an ideal of what is available. Cornwall, England is home to the Bude an North Cornwall Golf Club. A 18 hole seaside course that the sea breeze makes challenging. Year round play is available but a phone call is recommended in the winter months. Weather conditions are also most important, selecting only the best timing for your golfing travel adventures.
Another fine course is located in Merseyside, England. Featuring seaside links, my favorite for the view. This 18 hole course is set amongst the tall sand dunes providing the challenge you seek. This course also hosts championship Golf when the open is played at Royal Birkdale.
If you are only looking to stay in London then there are a few courses within Greater London. The Dukes Meadows Golf Club is an 18 hole course with U.S.G.A standard greens.
The London Scottish Golf Club is another club located within London. It features a 18 hole course set within common woodlands. Many talk about Scotland which is also very beautiful, but England offers an interesting blend of both worlds.
Trent Park Public Golf Course is available year round and features a heated driving range as well as an 18 hole Parkland Course. Bring a jacket, it can get cool at times, and check the weather seasons before planning any Golf vacation.
Outside of the City and scattered throughout England are Golf Courses that cater to the traveling Golfer. With the Seaside Links and Parklands threaded throughout the country, Golfing across England would be a life altering experience. Its enjoyable to stay at a real B & B, verses a Hotel at times, depends on your preference, but a great experience depending what Golf Course or city you are near.
Imagine the pictures, the stories and the friends that you would meet while playing that foursome. At the end of the day eating dinner with your newfound golfing friends or enjoying a pint at the 19th and 20th hole .
Make your plans for the trip of a lifetime. And do not stop with England, head over to the home of Golf, Scotland. Once in Europe, between countries is so close, spread your Golf Vacation Tour out if time allows, and what an adventure you will have.

- 4). Abolish Your Comfort Zone - It's killing your golf game! By : Wade Pearse
We all have what I call an inner game thermostat. It governs your inner game temperature, so to speak. Your comfort zone is like a climate controlled room. If it gets too cool then it's time to heat up. If it gets too hot the air conditioner turns on to cool things down.
Your inner thermostat does exactly what it is preprogrammed to do - bring your game back to *normal*! How? By producing what appears to be the "wrong swing at the wrong time".

- 6). Ball Position For Different Clubs By : Jack Moorehouse
Ball position is a critical component that’s often overlooked by players with high golf handicaps. Ball position decides a shot’s initial direction. While theories on ball position abound, you need to find one that’s right for you.
Ball position affects a clubhead’s swing path, as I explain in my golf lessons. If the ball is too far back, the clubhead moves on an in-to-out swing path at impact, sending the ball to the target’s right.
