When you get the chance to venture back onto the course for a game of golf, we want you to get as much enjoyment out of it as possible whilst following social distancing guidelines.

It might not be for right now but something to consider for the future is Motocaddy’s range of stylish and compact (can easily fit in your boot alongside your clubs) electric trolleys.

They have some fantastic options at affordable prices, all of which will take the strain off your back and allow you to walk the course in comfort!

Thoughts for the course

When you’ve been playing golf for many years, it’s easy to set-up to the ball in a way that feels natural without too much thought. However, without a proper pre-shot routine, our ball position can easily move to a place that's doing more harm than good.

Keep an eye on things

As in last week’s article on alignment, the easiest way to check your ball position is by placing a club or stick on the floor as in the image above.

If you’re unsure about where the ball should be positioned within your stance with any club in your bag, send us a message or a photo and we’ll get back to you.

Pre-shot routine is key

This drill is perfect for when you’re practicing on the range but out on the course it all stems from your pre-shot routine. Not only does this help with your fundamentals such as ball position and alignment, but it’ll also help you if you’re feeling particularly nervous. Again, get in touch with us below if you’d like to discuss your pre-shot routine or anything else golf-related. We're here to help!

Enjoy every step

Managing to get back out on the course and play golf again is going to bring a lot of joy to people in the coming weeks and months. Walking four miles or more – on top of actually swinging a golf club – is quite a bit of exercise considering the recent situation, so make sure you’re set up for maximum comfort before you head out.

All of today’s golf shoes are made with comfort and performance at heart. If you’re wearing shoes that are a few years old, starting to wear or have a hard leather sole, we have plenty of affordable new shoes in the pro shop for when we're open.

One brand that we really like is Under Armour, especially its new HOVR Drive shoe (pictured above). HOVR cushioning features across the majority of UA's range for 2020, making each shoe incredibly comfortable for maximum enjoyment.
