american-athlete create golf hitting millions natural touch
There is no such thing as a natural touch. Touch is something you create by hitting millions of golf balls.
ball close fade guys hitting kept low pin playing pony putting turns
I always loved hitting a low fade to a back-right pin with the wind howling from the right. Not many guys could get it close in that situation, because they kept it low by just putting the ball back in their stance. You see, playing the ball back turns you into a one-trick pony - you can only hit hooks.
feels goes good hitting range shot
Every shot feels like the first shot of the day. If I'm on the range hitting shot after shot, I can hit them just as good as I did when I was 30. But out on the course, your body changes between shots. You get out of the cart, and you've got this 170-yard 5-iron over a bunker, and it goes about 138.
hitting balls natural
There is no such thing as a natural golfer but you become one by hitting thousands of balls

I do not know any player, who could strike a golf ball like he (Norman) can, as far as hitting it solid, knowing where it's going, knowing the mechanics of the game and knowing what he wanted to do with the golf ball.

Pressure is playing for $50 a hole with only $5 in your pocket.

I'm starting to hit it better and getting the range on my shots. If I get my putter going, watch out.
against betting buy caddie care golf nobody
Nobody buy you and your caddie care what you do out there, and if your caddie is betting against you, he doesn't care, either.
ball bit power practice question work
Now the question is a little bit of practice and a little bit of strength. I need some strength. I don't have any power to get the ball up and, you know, work different shots.
ball drive guys hit thrilling
The only thrilling thing about a long drive is if you can find it. There's a lot of guys out there that hit the ball a long way that are starving.
You can't teach passion. You can teach everything else.
advantage ball course drive fall golf good great love putter understand
I will fall in love with any golf course that you have to drive the ball straight. You understand what I'm saying? That's my advantage. My advantage wasn't putting. In fact, I wasn't even a great putter or a good putter.

Pressure is when you play for five dollars a hole with only two in your pocket.
