Executing Golf Shots - How to Break 80

In Chapter 2 of ” How To Break 80…. And Shoot Like The Pros “, Jack starts teaching us about executing the golf swing/shot. He starts with the 3 Keys from Chapter 1 and uses those to get us some Rhythm. Then he ingeniously uses a towel to teach us about Timing. This is the drill that helped me get a more connected golf swing. I now am more compact and even though I swing easier, I hit the ball more solidly. I played a round today and every time I remembered to setup properly….tall and connected are my two thoughts, I hit quality golf shots. According to Jack’s teachings, I was wasting my 6′2″ frame and was playing like I was 5′10″. I blew several drives about 30 yards past my playing partner today and all he could say was ” Where’d you get that ? ” I told him about Jack’s ebook and all that I learned and he went home this afternoon to read this blog and follow along. I hope he waits about 2-3 weeks before he invests in the ebook, as I will have gotten enough out of his pocket to repay my investment !

Next it goes into Beginning The Swing and from there to Where And How Should I Hit The Golf Ball.

In the subhead, Aimming For Success, Jack gives you a plan to implement every time you get ready to hit a golf shot. Follow this plan and build a routine and you’ll be more likely to execute a quality golf shot. I mumbled my way thru my routine today and as it becomes more and more familiar, I won’t have to move my lips to remember !

I’m sure I looked and sounded funny to my playing partner today, but the beating I gave him didn’t leave him any room to make fun of my routine.

He also noticed that I’m hitting my hybrid irons like a Pro. I used the 22 degree from the fairway for a green in regulation on the second hole. 175 yards out, a little breeze and a 20 foot putt for birdie that I hit about 17 feet. I gotta get a new putter !

The 18 degree and the 14 degree are Par 5 killers. I either get ‘em home or I leave a short pitch shot. And if you give me a 10 - 30 yard pitch shot, I’ll get up and down for birdie about 5 of 10 times. 5 birdies and 5 pars in 10 times thru a series of par 5’s is good for the ol’ Handicap and the ol’ confidence.

My sand game was better than my friend had ever seen it, too. My new Eidolon wedges and my new swing ( thanks Jack ! ) got me 2 sandy’s today. I’d have gotten 1 other, but I gotta get that new putter !

Shotmaking is the next subhead and hitting a draw and a fade are dealt with thoroughly. I turned a couple of balls right to left today and my friend was amazed. He’d never seen me do anything but fade the ball. Several dead straight drives and a couple of draws with my hybrids were enough for him to ask me to write down the URL of this blog.

The photos Jack gives you to show you how to setup for a fade and a draw are very easy to understand. Just print out that page and take it to the range with you.

Again, that’s what makes an ebook the real deal. You can print out any one page or the whole ebook. Take each chapter to the range and work on it til you’ve got it. I did that a few days ago and a guy at the range asked what I kept looking at. I showed him what I was working on and he asked if he could have the pages/photos. I said sure, I can print more, so you might make a new friend while you’re making you’re game better.

Tomorrow, I’ll go over Chapter 3 which is all about the short game. You don’t want to miss it, so come back and learn a thing or two.
