Golf tips for beginners at Holywell Bay Golf

Top Five Golfing Tips for Beginners

May 26, 2020 //  by Niamh//  2 Comments

Now is the best time for you and your family to get golfing with these golf tips for beginners! Not only can you learn a new sport, but golf is always a great way to get fresh air and enjoy the stunning views Holywell Bay has to offer. Our golf courses are open to all ages and abilities with no dress code and clubs to hire. If you are an absolute beginner, then check out of top golf tips below.

1. Check your alignment
Most right-handed people will naturally aim right, however that doesn’t always been the golf ball will go that way. Take time to align not only your feet, but your knees, hips and shoulders, not to mention the club face.

2. Posture makes perfect
Be sure to bend at the hip, not the waist. Make yourself solid and balanced before attempting a swing.

3. Get to grips with the grip
Place your weaker hand (left for right-handed golfer) at the top of the club with the right underneath. Many beginners think that the stronger hand should be at the top controlling the swing.

4. Take a swing at it
Imagine you’re skimming a stone or throwing a baseball, starting the movement with the lower body, with the upper body following.

5. Practice makes perfect
With many things, the more swings you can practise, the better you will become. Perhaps start with Pitch and Putt courses before moving onto the Par 3 course.

The most important golf tip for beginners is to just have fun and soon enough your competitiveness will have you mastering shots to beat your family. Discover our golf courses online before visiting and check out our Facebook page for lots more images.

    I like this – really makes the game sound accessible. Hopefully it will encourage people back out onto the courses.

    Being a bit of a pedant, as well as a former teacher, black marks for grammar here though:

    Imagine your skimming (you’re)
    the more swings you can practice (practise)

    Proof reading needed!

    Cheers to one and all – good luck for the rest of this weird summer.

    Thank you so much for this article!

    I have been playing for a few years for my high school team and this small thing has definitely added a few strokes
